For context: kofola is a czecho/slovakian drink. I'm not european but god damn that looks so good...
It has a very acquired taste: liquorice, anis (main Ouzo ingredient), and some other herbs I'm not sure of. It's sweet, but just the right amount. I like it, but there's many people who dislike the taste. If you have the chance, try it :)
To be honest you got my attention.
By what you described i feel like adding a bit of gentian to it it would make a decent cocktail
That sounds really good... Wish I could get in the US to try now
Sounds like Moxie, but probably better tasting.
Afri Cola and Fritz Cola are two popular alternatives in Germany. I personally like Fritz Cola. Not sure if they are sold internationally.
Fritz Cola is great! Might be my favourite overall.
Club-Cola!
What about VitaCola? VitaCola is the best!
I appreciate how even the meme template has been European-ized.
Drake's a pedophile or at the very least a creep who stalks teenagers, anyway.
Though the Pooh variant of the meme is also alright.
The Drake version is for things that pedophiles would like or dislike. It basically has the same meaning as a Jeffrey Epstein version of the meme, but without the transference of meaning of images. History has transferred the meaning for us.
I wonder if pedophiles still use the Drake meme in the old way?
Alright, fine! I've given in and ordered some. Thank goodness there are some shops in the UK that stock it.
Kofola is great. Especially from the tap.
Fritz cola is the only decent European cola I see sold in Estonia. It's ridiculously expensive in that you can buy a two liter Coca Cola or Pepsi for the price of a 330ml Fritz. It's OK if you're alone and only want the one small bottle, but when you've gotta share, it's about as much as a home-cooked family meal. For a literocola.
Admittedly, the taste of Fritz Cola has way more nuance than Coca Cola. And I'm more of a Fanta man and yay, Jaffa is pretty much as good and just as cheap as American Fanta.
One of the local grocery stores also has a decent store-brand Sprite alternative so that covers most of the bases, just would sometimes like to have a cheaper good European cola available.
Cocta fans assemble!
I need to taste Cocta before I die
Cocta is actually really good. It's fundamentally like any other cola, but with mild herbal aftertaste which is really nice and refreshing. I need to try Kofola tho. I was in Czechia few years ago, if I knew I need to try it I'd look for it back then.
It tastes great! I always recommend it as a Czech refreshing drink to my friends from abroad who don't know it. But i have learned not to compare it with Cola anymore. Its not a cola alternative. It has its own unique and delicious taste. The only thing that it has similar to coke is the color and fizzyness. Tastewise it is superior to Cola in my opinion because it is not so sweet. And it tastes much more of herbs.
When i advertise it as coke-like to friends from abroad they just seem to think this is shitty coke. When you say look this is a super refreshing drink that tastes a bit of herbs and it is pretty unique in its taste, they tend to be pleasantly surprised.
But it tastes like shit.
I like kofola but a real babushka would choose kvass
Any alternatives for Pepsi?
Vita Cola
DayZ has taught me that it is Pipsi.
I smuggle this stuff back to Poland each time I cross the border in Tatra's. Yes, some supermarkets do sell it, but wheres the fun in that.
Would be great if Kofola was sold regularly in Polish stores like Studentska. I don't drink coke but it would be great alternative for drinks.
I have one bottle in my fridge rn
When visiting to czechia used to fill my car to the brim when returning. It's quite the unique drink. The watermelon one is probably my favorite.
It's nice, but it tastes different to coke.
Sorry, I'm buying maghrebian one this. Long vive Selecto.

Back in the nineties I was on holiday in the city Mêlník Czech Republic, and I was drinking Citro Cola there and fondly remember the lemony cola.
Coke with a splash of lemon tastes nothing like it, you get closer to the taste of Citro Cola by adding 40ml lemon juice to Coke but then it's too acidic.
Lately I was checking out Czech webshops and found they sold Citro Cola syrup but not anymore.
Does anyone from the Czech Republic know if you still can get Citro Cola?

Tried looking it up.
Seems it hasn't been regularly produced for quite a while. A few years ago it was still sold by one retailer (coop) but they seem to have since stopped selling it.
