    European style soft drinks in America

    So, I was in Spain for much of August and had Fanta Naranja (Orange) and it was soooooooo gooooooooooooooood. It was eight percent fruit juice, carbonated water, and sugar. Does anyone know where I can get this in the United States? I am not refering to the orange colored fructose corn syrup shit that Coca Cola makes domestically. I am talking about the stuff they make in Europe. Also, where can I find Limon Schweppes in America? Thank you for any help.

    Hard to come by. Fanta is awesome, and In Germany they had something called spezi. it was a cola mix with orange i believe. that was good as well.

    not sure how to get any.

    I saw some real euro Fanta in Dallas once, but haven't seen any here .

    When I lived in Orlando I saw Fanta commercials all the time, "Fanta, fanta, don't you wanna."

    Mix Cola and Orange Soda 50/50, or try mezzo mix which is similar though not quite as good as Spezi.

    There was a European Market in Champaign, IL that sold their version of Fanta. If I can find it in that town, I'm sure you can find it in Missouri.

    This is the real deal. I think it's only available in Italy now.

    Orangina, or Sanpellegrino Limonata, Arcanciata and Aranciata Rossa. I have no problem finding these in Rochester. The Sanpellegrino soft drinks are great. Any Italian market, or organic market should have them.
