I was driving and found myself craving some caffeinated soda. Since coca and Dr pepper are now off limits I just downed an espresso and got a (European) ice tea, but I'm wondering if there are actual alternatives

Most european supermarket chains will have their own brand and they will most probably come from a local company. Lidl, auchan, carrefour...

Then we also have local brands. In italy there is sanpellegrino, san benedetto, ferrarelle, lemonsoda...

San Pellegrino does taste good, but I don't feel particularly great buying it. Literally coca cola feels morally better than Nestlé.
