Which do you like better? Yesterday I had a Coke with Lime and now I'm having a Pepsi with Lime. I can't really tell the difference except that Pepsi in general has less carbonization.

I like these roughly the same amount...
#1: plain Diet Coke (but NOT Coke Zero, and NOT the sucralose-sweetened kind).
#2: Coke (the sugar kind) with lime (fresh lime is best, the pre-limed kind is OK)
#3: Cherry Coke (also the sugar kind, and again, homemade is better than the pre-cherried stuff)

If I want lime, or lemon, in my PEPSI, I put REAL lime or lemon in.

Oh yeah and by the way, it is Diet Pepsi, and only Diet Pepsi.

All my life I have been a Coke person, but since a few years, I had switched to Pepsi Twist (lemon taste) but Coke launched its Lime flavor, and Pepsi followed soon after. They discontinued the Twist brand and only changed the colors of their label from yellow to green. I don't like either Lime flavor so I'm back to my old love, Coca-Cola Classic (but slowly replacing it by water).

I just like sucking on limes and occasionally bashing my forehead with an old coke bottle.

I thought I liked Coke better, but in a blind taste test, I picked Pepsi. Oh well, Cherry Coke beats Cherry Pepsi hands down.

Do the taste tests use room-temp sodas? I seem to recall the one I took did. Point being that maybe Pepsi does taste better than Coke to a lot of people when it's served room temp.

I can't imagine not being able to tell the difference between Coke and Pepsi.

I don't drink all that much soda. The only flavor that i care for occasionally is cherry.

Phased out soda awhile back. Still have the occasional sparkling water with dinner, but rarely have the corn-syr-upped concoctions anymore.

I prefer Corona with lime. Not much of a soda/pop fan.

The reason why Pepsi wins taste-tests is that it is sweeter and generally more appealing in small sips taken at taste tests. Try an ice-cold glass of each and see which you prefer instead.
