For every day, water. For a treat, the Dr. Pepper version made with sugar, not high fructose corn syrup.

@Poppies I wondered, so I googled: "High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) and table sugar (sucrose) are nutritionally and metabolically nearly identical, both composed of glucose and fructose." Seems the whole "sugar" (cane? beet? something else?) versus high fructose corn syrup -- aka sugar -- controversy is more propaganda than scientific reality. But it's made millions for health experts riding the propaganda.

@ChipmunkErnie I won't contest nutritionally and metabolically. But I know first hand that the flavor of the product with sugar is superior.
@Poppies How do they make that obvious (the real sugar version)? Do they use a red bottle cap? Or is it seasonal, or advertised as Kosher?

@Heartlander nothing obvious like that. The only place I can find it is online or in a specialty soda pop shop where everything they sell is made with real sugar. It costs about double, especially when you are paying for shipping.
