I love drinking soda daily because of the taste and it goes good with anything. What are some alternatives?

I want to find a drink that will give me the same satisfaction as soda but won't end up giving me diabetes the way soda can.

    i totally know what you mean! first you just gotta try new things and see what works best for you. to be honest there is not one drink I have found that can replace a good carbonated soda. Maybe diet dr pepper. the closest thing is just good sweet tea and that can be tough when eating out cuz some places just make some really crappy tea. i've eventually weaned myself off of sodas except for once a week fountain drink. other than that I'll drink water and mango or peach flavor green tea. it is so tough to start but the benefits are worth it and you do feel better in small ways, such as less to no pain during that time of the month, weight loss (in the 1st month i lost 5 lbs) and eventually you stick to to good habits without thinking about it. it takes time but well worth it. good luck :)

    Source(s): i use to drink sodas thru out the day and for lunch and dinner but now sometimes i can go months without them but yeah to me they are so yummy like chocolate! think of sodas as a occasional snack i dont even buy them for my fridge just so i can make sure i wont go back to my old habits

    Don't drink diet, it will give you cancer as fast as regular soda will give you diabetes.

    Drink soda made with sugar as opposed to high fructose corn syrup. It is still bad to drink all the time, but it is definitely better.

    I try to drink a Hansen soda here and there.

    Iced Tea is a good choice, it goes with many things and if you add sugar, say 2 sugar packets, you are only going to consume about 3 or 4 grams of sugar as opposed to 39 in regular sodas.

    Goodluck!
