That refreshing Georgia spirit

The Spirit of GeorgiaOne of our guidebooks claimed that while Coca-cola was ever present, Berliners drink their own local soft drinks. We haven’t found that to be the case; it seems only Coke products are here. Of course there are minor differences: regular Coke is made with sugar, Diet Coke (called “Coke light” here) has saccharine. Then there’s the stuff you can’t get back home (outside of World of Coke), such as “Mezzo Mix” which is essentially Coke with orange. I found this one, “The Spirit of Georgia” our first day here. Despite many years living in Georgia, I was not quite sure what our collective spirit was, but now I know it is yellow-tinted Sprite.
