I don't drink soft drinks now, but I loved Cheerwine in my younger days.

Cheerwine rocks!
Seems to be more carbonated than your typical fruit soda.

Cheerwine: Born in the South; raised in a glass.

He needs to drink it as a Cheerwine float from Cookout to get the full Carolina experience.

Cheerwine is my favorite soft drink. I used to drink them regularly when I was in North Carolina.

Unfortunately I cannot get it here in the Florida Panhandle.

I had a Freeper tell me how Cheerwine was so much better than Dr Pepper so I gave it a try. Fake news!

Good for them. Congratulations, and also thanks to The President for so honoring an American product.

That said...

I hate Cheerwine. Dreadful stuff.

Gimme a Coke, and shaddup!

(I do need to mention I was born and raised in Connecticut, and came to North Carolina in 2011 as a tax refugee. I do wish we had come a lot sooner. Life here is so much nicer.

The president is working to highlight and assist American businesses while the Democrats and a good many Repukes in Congress are more worried about phantom Russians stealing elections. Granted, there are plenty of braindeads out there who are buying into this Russia nonsense, but there are also plenty of other Americans who see this president trying to make a difference in the lives of his countrymen.

Cheerwine is definitely syrupy sweet, while Coke is citrusy and tart.

Had a Cheerwine about four years ago at a dive off of Faulkenberg Rd. outside Tampa. Guy Ferrari (?) did a show there.

Forgot the name even though I got a t-shirt from the episode.

I always thought Cheerwine tasted a little like “red hots”.

I like cokes out of a bottle but it is hard to find that now. The taste from cans is too metallic.

Love the stuff. Drinking a Cheerwine right now. 12 oz bottles are the best with the real sugar.

1904. Avery Soda founded. Would Avery’s be older than Cheerwine?

Moxie. 1876.

Unless you add *the continuously operated by the same family part.*
