As a kid in Texas, we would go to the drug store and order a cherry, vanilla Dr Pepper.  If my mind serves me right, it was pretty good.  Of course that was over fifty years ago.  Probably taste like crap now.

Timm and Rafter, my moms from PA, and everytime we go up there above the Mason-Dixon, we always make fun of them for saying "pop" and "crick" and stuff like that, and vice versa.


My party drink is Mountain Dew.

It's "cold drink" or "red drink-i.e., creme soda" here, or Coke.  The Crescent City is more a Coke town than a Pepsi town.  Soda is used, and much more often than pop, although the full term soda pop is sometimes heard.

I'm pretty sure it came from "soda pop"

People call it pop up here in the northwest.  I've met people from Idaho, Washington, and Oregon that call it pop.  Then when you get down to California territory, they're too "civilized" and prefer calling it soda.

But it's strange how different locations prefer different slang/words.

Where I grew up we just asked.."Ya'll wanna cold drink??" That was our term for soda or pop.
