We have the legendary [Cuba Cola](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuba_Cola), which entered the market a few months before Coca Cola reached the country back in the 50s.
I used to drink it quite a bit as a kid, 20+ years ago. It’s still being sold, allegedly, but I haven’t seen it in forever. That said I’m sure it exists in some grocery stores, especially in southern Sweden, but not in the ones I frequent here in Stockholm.

We don’t have a local cola in the Netherlands, apart from private labels. We do have a local Dr. Pepper!
Swinkels (the Bavaria beer makers) make Dr Foots.

Jolly Cola in Denmark is very good

Denmark has Jolly Cola and Harboe Cola. I personally prefer Harboe over most other colas (it’s a bit more cinnamon-y)

Hancock Sport Cola. It’s made by this local brewery named Hancock, bottled in green beer bottles to save money, and it by far the most delicious soda I’ve ever tasted. I dunno how they made it this good or why it’s “sport”, but I know I’ll always buy one when I see one.

In Italy I tried different brands after deciding to boycott USA products and after many experiments I found out that the Conad cola is the closest to the Coca Cola flavour. I also found a new appreciation for the drink known as Chinotto.
Baikal is pretty good, unfortunately the name got patented recently so the best version of Baikal is called something else now

*Fentimans Curiosity Cola* is one of the more popular ones in the UK. It’s brewed/fermented and has a very low alcohol content due to that (<0.5% so there’s no restrictions on sale). Interesting and unique flavour, but unfortunately they ruined it a bit in recent years by replacing some of the sugar with sweetener to avoid our sugar tax. Sad.

we have Pop Cola Botanical in Romania. it’s a low sugar, plant based Cola and it’s actually pretty good. even though it’s already low in sugar, it has a Zero version, a Lime version, a No Caffeine version and a Classic version which is not as healthy as the Botanical one, it’s straight up Cola

Polo Cockta. 🇵🇱
I am not from Serbia, but every time I visit, I have to get some local [Cockta](https://www.reddit.com/r/mildlyinteresting/s/DyIma1oYmK).
Sinalco??? The trash soda we had in Serbia 20 years ago?
