Oh yeah preaching to the choir on that one, pretty much all American flavored drinks you can buy have 3-5 times as much sugar as they need to. Our entire country is addicted to sugar and that's not even a joke, it's a real statistic that's been proven with studies.
When I want a tasty carbonated beverage I mix some Cran-grape (or apple, raspberry, etc.) juice 1:1 with club soda. And when I want caffeine I drink good-quality coffee (NOT starbucks). Dr. Pepper still has a place in my heart though LOL sometimes I can't resist
