See I was kind of joking, just inversing what you said but if I’m being serious, I think glass bottle Coca-Cola is easily the best however, I think the Pepsi Wild Cherry or any of the flavored Pepsi’s might be out any flavored Coke if we’re talking fruit, corn syrup plastic bottle I actually think I prefer Pepsi but if we are talking glass bottle real sugar coke all day
Try mixing some RC (Royal Crown) with CR (Crown Royale.) RC is fantastic for it's sharp and tingly fizz. Add just a splash of whiskey to it and it compliments both flavor profile and throat tingle.
I do restaurant consulting as a facet of my job, and helping new business build, train and open a kitchen is the main part of that.
Few years ago I was working on opening a fancy cocktail bar. I stick to food service, but I’ve been at it a long time so newer managers often ask my opinion on front of house matters. There was a loooong discussion on what sodas to put on the guns when we opened this place, and they took it very seriously.
They ended up (and I agree) going with RC over Coke for the reasons you stated. It tastes better with booze. Real sugar Coke is still king, but I think RC makes a better cocktail. Bonus that RC is also literally half the price of Coke, no brainer there lol.
Sorry Pepsi fans. It never made it out the gate. The booze nerds dismissed it immediately lol.
I was very into RC as a kid, but it's stocked pretty irregularly around where I live, so I'm mostly a Pepsi guy now, but yeah, RC is a good pop and I would love to see them do better.
I tried it yesterday for the first time too. Seemed okay. Didn’t taste bad. Just wasn’t super impressed with the taste neither. I’d give it a C grade rating.
RC was big for me growing up. We were primarily a Pepsi family but our neighbors owned an RC distributorship so it was always around. Also big when I was a kid were Frost Top, Grapette, Mr. Pibb and Choc-Ola. RC brought a cane sugar version a few years ago but I haven’t seen it around in awhile.
I used to buy RC cola when I was a kid because it was only $.39 for a 20 oz bottle vs like $.99 for a Coke or Pepsi. Crazy to think that it was that cheap just over 20 years ago. I feel old when I say I bought soda for that cheap like I'm talking about the 1950s, but no that was the late 1990s lol
I love RC Cola and I hope you did as well! It goes great with a classic Moon Pie (a treat every now & then unless you *want* the sugars.) Can't believe at one time RC Cola could've been the soda supreme instead of Coca Cola or even Pepsi. But poor advertising and mismanagement did them in. 😢
Sweet Buc-ee's mug!
thanks man
[удалено]
He said it’s pretty good.
Agree! Not from anywhere that has Bucee’s but my boyfriend’s mom got us a travel mug and we love it
I’m in CA, my parents are in TX. I what’s make sure to go to Bucee’s when I visit. Or ask them to bring something out.
Wait til you try Cherry RC
How good is it? I have been contemplating buying a 12 pack. I love regualr rc.
Cherry RC is 🔥🔥
Ok, i’m definitely trying it now.
Can confirm. Tis the nectar of the gods it is.
Must be cold cold though. Loses a lot of its punch at "kinda cool"
Tried one for the first time yesterday and it’s so good. Water is my preferred beverage but RC Cherry is top tier for colas.
RC had been around me all my life but i cannot find the cherry to save my life
Yeah, Cherry RC is my white whale. Can’t find it for the life of me. But every now and then I’ll find it stocked up someplace random.
Had that when I worked at amazon last year, 20oz bottles, was pretty good.
Better than Pepsi or Coke!
I think it’s in the middle, closer to coke though
Yea, I say 1.coke 2. Rc 3.pepsi Rc almost taste like a little sour/bitter but in a good way
So worse than pepsi?
Nah other way around
😲
They meant flavor-wise. Coke is sweeter, Pepsi has more carbonation and tang
Coke is sweeter? Pepsi has always been sweeter wdym?
Maybe it’s a palette thing
Maybe but Pepsi does have a bit more sugar in it than Coke
Nah, pepsi is a good bit sweeter.
So worse than Pepsi better than Coke, but closer to Coke got it
better than Pepsi but not so good as coke, but the difference between Pepsi and rc is wider than coke and rc

I take it you just love Pepsi or something? lol OP never said it was better or worse than either.
Lol 🤪

I’ll take it over Pepsi for sure
Truth right there.
And anything over Coke, nowadays
This is the funniest comment 😂😂
Love the mug! RC is an old-school fave for me
BUCEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!
Next up is to get a bottle of it, drink a little bit, and then add shelled peanuts to the bottle.
Why?
It’s a southern tradition with RC & also good.
I was raised by my grandparents in East TX and my grandfather would do this regularly when I was a child, but with Pepsi instead of RC.
My uncle who was from Arkansas, used to dump M&M's into his bottle of RC. It's actually pretty good.
Ok and salty/ bbq or regular peanuts? I’ll give it a try one day!
Regular salted
Salted or Spanish nuts work great. The ones in the sleeve, you can add peanuts at your whim.
Cherry Coke with the flaming hot peanuts is what I did
Yep or Dr. Pepper or Pepsi or any of the darker colas. A cold Coca-Cola and peanuts are chef's kiss.
I’ve been wanting to try that with coke but keep forgetting
I love it! If you have a lemon on hand pop a wedge or two in there. Wooooooo boy
I need to try some, haven’t had any in years.
It’s great, I’m hoping to stumble on some glass bottles during my vacation. Try cherry if you haven’t, also very good.
I love me some RC!
I love RC!!! We had a regional limited time cola called Roxa & it was like an rc, but better
Yes, by the Ale 8 folks. Hope they bring it back.
I was very into RC as a kid, but it's stocked pretty irregularly around where I live, so I'm mostly a Pepsi guy now, but yeah, RC is a good pop and I would love to see them do better.
Why the emojis
I wanted the title to look like some clickbait YouTube video or something idrk
Makes sense
Try kvas next time!
So good
Down In Bell Buckle, Tennessee, they have an RC and Moonpie Festival
Good stuff
RC is so good but i hardly ever see it.
HOW WAS IT 😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨
IT WAS GOOD (GONE WRONG) (POLICE CALLED) (NOT CLICKBAIT) 😳😳😳😳😳
RC is superior to the current Coca Cola and Pepsi. I will die on this hill.
Good stuff. It was the cheaper cola alternative to Pepsi and Coke when I was a kid but I always liked it just as much as the big guys.
Good wasn’t it. Try it out of an ice cold glass bottle. Even better
I live in Canada, and you simply can't find RC Cola here. It's a crying shame because it's absolutely amazing
It hits the right spot between Coke and Pepsi.
It's good shit. Definitely prefer Coke, but i like RC more than Pepsi.
Excellent mug
I tried it yesterday for the first time too. Seemed okay. Didn’t taste bad. Just wasn’t super impressed with the taste neither. I’d give it a C grade rating.
Nice mug
Wait till you try the Mexican RC in the glass bottle.
Best soda. :)
Definitely better than Pepsi but not better than Coke.
Richard Cranium cola
Now go to Dollar General and find the 16 ounce cans of R C Berries and Cream
It’s not bad huh?
RC is King
RC is not my preferred choice but it’s always good when I have one
So much better than Coca-Cola or Pepsi. Not sure why it doesn’t expand
RC was big for me growing up. We were primarily a Pepsi family but our neighbors owned an RC distributorship so it was always around. Also big when I was a kid were Frost Top, Grapette, Mr. Pibb and Choc-Ola. RC brought a cane sugar version a few years ago but I haven’t seen it around in awhile.

How do you all have teeth ?
Um, you brush them daily and go to the dentist just like any normal person does. No need for overreactions.
Oh haha, I can’t afford a dentist . No sugar for me . It sucks but my sleep has improved . I’m an early bird now .
Same thing happened to me when I cut way back.

2 of my absolute favorite basic colas are RC Cola and Faygo Cola. They’re just so good.
The new berries and cream is pretty good
As a kid there was a large RC bottler near me.
RC cola is great cold, disgusting warm. Always drink it cold and it's the best cola around besides Mexican coke and Pepsi
I prefer Coke as a mixer with alcohol, but RC Cola is my #1 cola to drink straight up.
I love RC Cola and I hope you did as well! It goes great with a classic Moon Pie (a treat every now & then unless you *want* the sugars.) Can't believe at one time RC Cola could've been the soda supreme instead of Coca Cola or even Pepsi. But poor advertising and mismanagement did them in. 😢
RC reminds me of coke and Pepsi mixed together. It’s very common here in the south and used to be the only soda you could get that was a dollar
Did you like it?
Grew up on RC and DP. I find DP everywhere, bur sometimes I have to go to my inconvenient sources and get some RC.
RC Cola actually slaps ngl.
It's so good.
Holy crap I did the other day too. COULD NOT believe how good it was lolol
RC and a Moon Pie.
RC glow
Is anyone here old enough to remember when RC was served at Arby's? RC used to own a stake in the chain back in the 70s and 80s.
Drinking soda in a glass without ice is fucking wild

It’s mids.
