What do you prefer? I would have to say that I like Mountain Dew the best out of all three. The aftertaste isn't always so great, though. Some kinds of Rootbeer are better than others and it's always good when you're really thirsty. Pickled Herring Juice might be an acquired taste.

Mountain dew is horrible for you and I'm convinced that it has addictive qualities. I'll have one once in a very great while, but otherwise... no thanks... who really needs to drink 11+TABLESPOONS of sugar? That much sugar dehydrates you, packs on unneeded calories and rots your teeth (now that's attractive...NOT) I'd much rather spend those calories on a chocolate chip cooky and a bottle of water. I get hydrated and a treat!
Rootbeer has a great homemade taste... IF you can find REAL rootbeer. Most of the pop labelled rootbeer is only FLAVORED like rootbeer... real rootbeer is made in a keg like it's fermented cousin. REAL rootbeer is a unique treat these days.
I've never tasted pickled herring let alone the juice, but once as a 9 year old I went through a phase where pickle juice held an unusual attraction for me. It helps to have a friend with the same propensity for odd things!
I'd have to say that when I'm thirsty I go straight for the good stuff... nothing hydrates like a tall glass of H2O.
When I want a sweet drink, I go for fruit juice or a tart, yummy lemonade or limeade... they kinda wake up the taste buds!
If it's a soda I crave...it's Dr Pepper. Hands down. Sweet, but not sickening. Unique blend of flavors.

As someone else mentioned..Yes! Mountain Dew is horrible for you and probably the most addictive of all.. But it's still SUPREMELY DELICIOUS! I absolutely love a cold Dew. Any time any place. lol. So I would definitely say Mountain Dew.
By the way, what the heck is Pickled Herring Juice?!
