what is a substitute or better replacement to cola?

chilled butter milk,tender coconut water,ice tea,cold cofee or miilk shakes or juices

I like those new little Crystal Light packets that you mix into bottled water. The packets last for three or four refills if you sprinkle lightly, just enough to get some flavor. It's a couple of calories but the water keeps you full, so it's worth it in the long run, especially if you have access to a filtered tap or water dispenser. They're great at work. One bottle and one or two little packets can last all day.

Nothing beats water (not even Gatrode or Red Bull), but why have one substitute when you can have many

For variation a hint of lime and honey make a great cooler.

So does iced tea.

Variety of squashes & AamPannas are available for adding flavor.

Hey but don't forget milk (nomatter what vegans say), makes great drink by itself with or without sugar and with choclate/coffee..........

in place of cola,coconut water should be used by people.it is rather cheap&can be afforded even by a common man.even home prepared fruit juices can be used as these both are healthy and add some important vitamins to our body.

Lemonade

Water.

Try water with a squirt of lemon juice! You'll get hydrated, vitamin C, and a mouth that's awake!

"chhas" and the next is "lassi", now a days chhas is available at every nook and corner of Mumbai just for rs.2 or 3 a glass, healthy and cooling throughout the year.

Ice Tea!

Fresh Lime Juice. You can really replace it with any fresh fruit juice of your choice.
