For me in TN, I remember Nehi mostly. I think Crush was around too. I remember getting sick drinking too much hot Peach Nehi on a summer day. Can’t even imagine touching the stuff now. Here in Michigan it seems Faygo was and still is the big flavored soft drink. Towne Club is a lesser local brand. | ||

For me it would be Faygo, grape or red pop they called it. Grew up just outside of Flint | |||

I remember Shasta too but more for the name and advertisements. Can’t recall anyone drinking it. | |||

Squirt and Fanta were the most likely to be seen. Up until my teens I wasn't really allowed to have soda outside of special occasions. Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||

I recall Vess strawberry. Seems like there was a Crush grape, in addition to the more familiar orange. That was Nebraska Edited to change grape Crush to Nesbitt, after seeing ggiles’ post below. _______________________________________________________ despite them | |||

For me it was Grapeade soda, in MO. 5¢ for a little bottle out of a damn-near manual vending machine. Purchasers were supposed to return the bottle after drinking the soda. When I was a little kid Coca-Cola was too zippy. Serious about crackers | |||

Nesbitt grape and orange was it when I was a kid in SoDak. _____________________________ "The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by those who vote for a living."

Store brand and you needed a can opener to open it. Getting a real coke was like champagne. Growing up we didn't have much. But more than we could ask for or need. And we appreciated what we had. I wouldn't trade the time of my childhood for todays wiz bang crap. ____________________________________________________ The butcher with the sharpest knife has the warmest heart. | |||

Not sure if fruit-based, but my favorite was A&W root beer. When in doubt, mumble | |||

Back in the 60's around here we had Fanta orange and grape sodas and Cott black cherry soda. I really liked that black cherry. There was also the X-Tra truck that would deliver to your house. They had every fruit flavor imaginable. It was fun going out to the truck to pick your favorite flavors for your case of soda.
