Prickly pears are actually not pears but the fruit of a cactus plant. They're sweet and fleshy like honeydew melon and strawberries. Confusingly, the prickly pear bottle label from Colorado-based Rocky Mountain Soda Company depicts a porcupine but don't worry, no rodents were harmed in the making of this drink.

This intriguing drink is from Florida-based brand Global Beverage Enterprises. It comes in a delightful 7oz ml bottle and is made with all-natural ingredients. The ideal drink for hot summer days or mixing into cocktails. Yes, you read that right. This bottle of soda produced by Pepsi in Trinidad and Tobago is made from the bark of the Mauby tree. Apparently it tastes exactly how you imagine bark would — bittersweet and similar to root beer.

Reviewers say it smells like hot cocoa powder and it has a bold chocolate taste. The mildly creamy and not too sweet drink is also fizzy, of course. Another limited-edition speciality from Jones Soda Co. Although the label depicts a turkey and gravy dinner, the soda actually contains no meat extract. Its flavour is described as herby, similar to root beer.

Japanese soda brand Ramune's range of inventive flavours includes everything from wasabi and kimchi to bubble gum and curry.

Why are we talking about fizzy drinks? Share On. Sign up to our newsletter Your first name. Your last name. While we wouldn't overindulge in this lemon and lime flavoured drink for the sake of our teeth, it is a better option compared to some of the other brands. Verdict: While the amount of sugar and food colouring is high, what's more worrying is the inclusion of sodium saccharin, a seriously sweet artificial sweetener. Not only is it one to avoid if you're on a diet, but too much Fanta won't do your teeth any favours, either.

Verdict: It's a kids' party favourite and goes hand in hand with biscuits and birthday cake - luckily Cherryade isn't the worst fizzy drink we tried.

While it does contain colouring and sweeteners, the sugar level is low so the kids aren't hit with the same cocktail of sweeteners and sugar, unlike other drinks. Verdict: We're sitting on the fence with Lilt. Admittedly the calorie count isn't great, especially if you are hoping to lose weight, but it does taste good. Therefore we're going to look at the fizzy drink as an occasional treat for summer time when the weather is fine!

Rating: 4. Verdict: Not technically a fizzy drink, but often served on the same shelves, Oasis Citrus Punch relatively low in calories and sugar. This is a very tasty punch, so why not add chunks of apple and orange with plenty of ice to up the nutritional value?

Verdict: Whether you add it to orange juice, use it as a mixer or simply drink it on its own, as fizzy drinks go, Schweppes Lemonade isn't a bad choice. In small doses this one won't have you piling on the pounds and it's not bad on the bank balance either.

Rating: 6. Verdict: Dandelion and Burdock might be a drink you would associate with healthy, natural ingredients. However, while calorie-wise this isn't a bad choice to make, it does contain colourings and additives, so try not to make this an everyday drink. Verdict: Great value for money and not bad on the calorie front. As fizzy drinks go, this is a good one to add to the shopping list. Plus it tastes delicious too!

Verdict: While most diet drinks have been taking a hit recently, Diet Pepsi is actually a good option if you prefer 'diet' options. But drinking this isn't going to give you those same benefits! It's nice to see green tea actually listed as an ingredient rather high up on the nutrition breakdown of this soda. But again, don't let that trick you into thinking it's a "healthy" beverage choice! Our moms used to give this to us when we had a tummy ache. Now as adults, we get a tummy ache looking at it.

But with lower calories than the rest, it ranks rather well on this list. The healthiest-sounding soda on this list nearly is. This soda doesn't have a laundry list of ingredients, which is refreshing to see, but still, it will set you back a decent amount of sugar. While the sugar isn't the lowest in this soda, the list of ingredients is pretty clean overall, making it a better-for-you choice.

This soda doesn't seem like it's all that bad but it does still have one big caveat: Lisa Moskovitz, RD, founder of The NY Nutrition Group, says "…high fructose corn syrup, which has been shown to increase appetite and, over time, lead to health problems such as obesity and diabetes. Still, Seagram's Ginger Ale has a lower calorie count than most.

This soda isn't nearly as high in calories as others on this list, but there's that HFCS and still 32 grams of sugar, so keep that in mind when cracking open one of these cans.

This soda has as much HFCS-derived sugar as 10 croissants, and we don't see ginger on the actual list, unfortunately. This is a truly classic cola. Well, as classic as soda can get, as there is still caramel color, but no HFCS! Props to Ale 8 for being the only cherry soda here that doesn't use red dye 40 to give their pop a bold hue.

This Kentucky-based brand swaps the red dye with natural colors from fruit and vegetable juices, and unlike many of the ginger ales the list, it actually includes fresh ginger in their brew. A short list of ingredients and cane sugar? If you really need to sip on a lemon-lime soda, this is the best one. Although Sprite is on the lower end of calories and sugar in one can, it still has a long list of ingredients including HFCS. It's a soda Often promoted by the athletes, but we can't really imagine LeBron and friends guzzling a can of carbonated corn syrup before a game….

If you want to sip on something cherry-flavored, this is the soda you go for, as it's the least offensive of the other options on this list. Known for its distinguished bitter flavor, this soda was one of the first to be mass-produced in the U.

Yes, there is some orange and mandarin pulp in here, and it's great to see the absence of HCFS.

With 24 grams of sugar—21 of which are added sugars—it's not a drink we would recommend you have every day. But once in a while, go for it! A small list of ingredients is something we can get behind.

The ginger flavor is promised to be "bold and spicy," too. The vanilla variation of this soda sneaks ahead of its ginger sister flavor, thanks to it being 5 calories less. Think of this drink as the better-for-you cream soda. Although Coke Life is sweetened with stevia, it's certainly not a "diet" beverage. A can of this still packs 24 grams of sugar and is 90 calories. Still, that's much less than other traditional colas on the market.

And the ingredients are pretty simple, too—sweetened with cane sugar and stevia, there's no HFCS, which is a bonus. At less than calories a can, this is definitely the best of the regular sodas although that still doesn't make it healthy!
