Long lost soda brands

plmiller's Picks Want to see what others picked?

1. Bubble-Up

I call bottled(in glass)Bubble-Up a long lost soda brand because it just isn't out there any more. When I was a kid it didn't even have corn syrup in it, either. I feel the plastic bottling process with the added high fructose corn syrup has ruined all the pops produced this way.

2. Squirt

I am normally not a fan of grapefruit, but I tolerated this pop. It, too, has gone by the wayside and is difficult to find, if at all. The flavors are so re-developed that they don't taste the same as they did when you were a kid, anyway.

3. Teem

Teem was a good soda if you like a light, lemony flavor. It was great mixed with all kinds of juices and mixed drinks, too, because it wasn't over-powering. This was a refreshing beverage that anyone would like.

4. Apple Slice

There aren't very many, if any, apple flavored soft drinks, unless you get into the Snapples or others like that. This particular pop contained actual fruit juice, which is rare...and if you believe in the old adage, "An apple a day keeps the Dr away", this could be your ticket.

5. Big Red

6. Citra

7. 7UP - Gold

8. Nesbitt's orange soda

I remember this as being quite similar to the Nehi brand of orange soda. Always very refreshing. I am a firm believer that the glass bottle gives you a more accurate flavor than the plastic bottle or aluminum can does. I try to buy my soda in bottles, even today.
