7 Brew's Best Fizz Soda Mimics The Flavor Of An Iconic Retro Candy

7 Brew stands out with its dizzying amount of flavor combinations. Thanks to 60 different syrups that can be teamed up in any way across coffees, teas, sodas, lemonades, and more, the chain boasts 20,000 possible flavor options. How do you order at 7 Brew without getting overwhelmed? We're here to help. It's easy to make the first choice of what kind of beverage you want — you know when you're in the mood for coffee versus 7 Brew's uncaffeinated fizz sodas, for example. Let's say you're opting for the latter. Between menu items and secret-menu customizations, how do you pick a flavor? 

Tasting Table tried and ranked 13 of 7 Brew's most recommended fizz sodas, and the winner was Pixie Stick. It's a trio of almond, orange, and pomegranate flavor syrups. The rounded, creamy sweetness of almond perfectly balances the tartness of the orange and pomegranate. Not only does that create some complexity and guarantee the soda doesn't veer too far in any one flavor direction, but it also successfully conjures up the sugar-sweet yet bright fruity tang of Pixie Stick candy. This fizz soda is satisfyingly creative and unique in its flavor inspiration, but approachably delicious and easy-drinking. 

"I tried the Pixie Stick ... in soda form and LOVED it," a fan wrote on a 7 Brew Facebook group page. On Instagram, commenters call Pixie Stick "amazing," "spectacular," and a favorite beverage, while users on TikTok call Pixie Stick the best flavor.

Of course, not every 7 Brew customer will agree that Pixie Stick is the best flavor. Everyone likes different things — that's why the chain has 20,000 options. Also on TikTok, one commenter remarked, "I looooved the pixie stick but it was SO sweet." Another said, "Meh I've tried it. It's about a 5 or 6 out of 10! [What's] really good is a mango/peach fizz with cream."

That's a good reminder that whatever your exact preferences are, you can find the perfect drink for you at 7 Brew. There are the menu staples like Pink Mermaid 7 Fizz Soda with watermelon, coconut, and strawberry, and the Stargazer with lime and blue raspberry. But we also dove into the best secret menu drinks at 7 Brew, and the sky's the limit there. You could start with the Pixie Stick and swap syrups in or out. For example, lean sweeter for the fruit by choosing cherry over pomegranate, or opt for vanilla, white chocolate, or toasted marshmallow instead of almond for the creamy component. 

You could also up that creamy sweetness right into dessert territory: According to Reddit users, 7 Brew fizz sodas with cream on top are a real treat. Choose cream, whipped cream, or cold foam. This adds rich texture and creates a smoothie-like profile, whether you apply it to the Pixie Stick or your own go-to combo, which could be anything from mango and guava to lavender, strawberry, and peach.
