I'm doing my best to stop drinking, but my local only has Heineken 0 available. What else do you lot drink that I can reliably get in the pub, which isn't full of caffeine or sugar?

Water is about all I can think of but I'm wondering if there is something I can ask for that I'm overlooking. I'm hoping this will be like when I learned about pesto; I couldn't believe I had gone so long before eating it.

Where are the soda bars at? I've been making my own at home with club soda and various fruit sweeteners like elderberry.

I've seen a couple soda/dry bars open in my city. One only lasted until the Kickstarter money ran out and the other quietly rebranded and started serving alcohol.

Certain markets just don't work, unfortunately.
