I normally buy tesco caffeine free cola which to me is as good as coke zero.
I thought i'd try morrison equivalent. I had 1 glassful and the rest went down the sink.
I've had to open a bottle of Bishops Finger to get rid of the taste.
Anyone else like the cheaper colas?

I begrudge paying about £1.50 for cocacola when a 69p bottle is as good. Especially if you use it as a mixer.

Asda own brand is quite nice. I used to really like the lemon flavoured variety, but it seems they no longer make it.

I used to love Panda Pops cola, though hell knows what was in it.

I went through a phase of drinking Pepsi but now am firmly a regular Coke drinker, even for mixers.

I can't stand cheap cola but have to put up with it in pubs even when they says it's coke or pepsi as it's a mix of the syrup and soda and usually doesn't get the right ratio of mix.

Have to say it's Pepsi for me.

It's always on offer somewhere for the equivalent of a pound or less for 2 litres somewhere!

If you are talking sugar free then both lidl and aldi do 2 ltrs for about 40p, very similar to diet coke, uses the same sweetners as coke. A lot if supermarkrts use sucralose and I don't care for the taste.

I used to be a die-hard diet pepsi fiend but since trying Aldis own diet version cola, have been converted. I actually buy it because it tastes better than pepsi or coke and not because it's less than half the price!

I don't do cola very often, but Spar used to sell an 'American Cola' that was actually pretty good, very similar in taste to Coke. I just buy real Diet Coke if I get a hankering for any now.

I'm a Diet Pepsi lover but have recently been getting Aldi's Diet Cola, just as nice I find.
