My one vice is diet caffeine free coke, I’m so rock and roll. Trying to find a UK/EU alternative I keep finding almost all drink brands are owned by Coke or Pepsi. These companies which originated in the USA have entities in the EU, which complicates the decision. Can anyone recommend a wholly UK(ideally) or EU alternative that’s reasonably priced?

    I don’t know what you think is reasonable pricing? Fritz is definitely more expensive (in restaurants or snack bars, the difference is often small though) but good, and ethical, and German: https://fritz-kola.com/en-gb

      If price is relevant, there’s also Sinalco from Germany, which is (at least in the stores around here) cheaper. But they’re less invested ethically than Fritz afaik.

      I’ve never seen Fritz Kola in the UK but I’ll try and find it. For me reasonably priced is anything I can get for around the same or lower as Coke at £1.75/€2 for a 2L bottle. There is Fentiman’s in the UK which is great but 2-3 times the price of Coca Cola

        I’m afraid Fritz will be a bit if a disappointment too then, as it is per liter about twice the price of US colas.
