I love weird and wonderful things. In Switzerland they have Rivella, made with milk whey. Deliciously refreshing.

In Czechia they have Kofola, the BuyEU poster drink. It looks like a cola drink but the taste is fairly different in a good way. They have cherry and lemon variants too!

I had the most delicious coconut flavoured fizzy water in Lanzarote, the brand name is Firgas, I believe it is a Canariense brand.

Japan has Calpis, don't mind the name because this stuff is insanely good! It's a tangy yoghurt based drink. The Korean equivalent is Milkis, equally delicious.

Talking about Korea, Lotte makes a pine bud drink (sorry can't link to that one!) and it's such an unusual and refreshing drink I really recommend it. They also have sikhye which is a drink made of fermented rice (amazake in Japan, jiuniang in China). And on the topic of rice drinks, Woongjin morning drink is superb, it's a bit pricey outside of Korea but so worth it.

Now for the number one in my heart, the drink I could inject in my veins because I like it so much is Liptonic. It's a fizzy ice tea and it's a crime it's not available everywhere.
