Coca-Cola has been the world's default fizzy brown drink since 1886. Almost every country in Europe has at least one homegrown answer to it. Most of them have a cult following the size of which is wildly disproportionate to the country's GDP.

The Czechs are fiercely loyal to Kofola, even though (because?) it was invented in the 1960s as a Soviet-bloc workaround for not being able to import Coke. The Slovenians treat Cockta the same way. The Swedes' Cuba Cola is older than most modern colas. Fritz-Kola is the hipster favourite of every Berlin bar. And in Austria, ordering an Almdudler instead of a Coke is basically a national identity statement.

Below: ten European alternatives to Coca-Cola. One per country. Vote for the one you'd reach for on a hot afternoon.
