I love the carbonation that a soda gives me. It feels crisp and refreshing going down my throat, and it quenches my thirst more effectively than anything else it seems.

The sweetness of soda can’t be beaten in my mind. Some of my favorites, like cream soda, give me just the right amount, and a unique sense of satisfaction. As I get older, though, I fully acknowledge the fact that it’s a habit I’d be better off putting an end to.

Aside from the fact that it causes cavities, too much soda can also make you excessively tired. Many point to sodas as a leading cause of diabetes too. It was time for me to make a change, and that’s exactly what I’ve done.

If you’re at a loss for what to drink in its place and can’t come to terms with the idea of drinking water all day, any one of these drinks might do the job for you.

Go for a seltzer if you still need some bubbles in your life. Sure, it won’t be as sweet as soda, but they make flavored versions that you might enjoy some more. The best thing about seltzer is that it has no calories.

Some people simply need a little more flavor in a drink. If that’s the case, try out any of the carbonated juices offered by Izze or Fizzy Lizzy. These are both great treats that have become wildly popular during the last few years.

Yet another possibility is green tea. This will give you a more holistic experience, but there are some great health benefits that come with the drink. If you don’t like the thought of drinking something hot, make some iced green tea.

All it takes is one substitute, and you’ll be well on your way. Try out each of these in the hopes that you enjoy one of them as much as I do.
