    Most any cold, nonalcoholic drink at a restaurant is going to be owned by Coca-Cola or Pepsi. Even the iced tea. Coke and Pepsi have started disguising their soda fountains with “bespoke” brands that use real sugar. For example, Stubborn Soda is owned by Pepsi. Coke recently bought Topo Chico. Pepsi owns “Bubly” and bought out Soda Stream. Chances are you are drinking a Coke or Pepsi product without realizing it.

    Snapple group in the US owns Keurig and Dr Pepper, so I guess you could drink that or 7-up if you wanted to avoid Coke or Pepsi.

      Even the iced tea.

      Yeah, that’s why I suggested making it yourself instead. Besides, those shop iced teas almost always have a shitload of sugar.
