Random Drink Generator: 150 Beverages From Cola to Masala Chai: how it works

This random drink generator pours five at a time from a list of 150 beverages, every one alcohol free: sodas, juices, shakes, coffee, tea, warm cups and mocktails. Each card carries one true line on where the drink comes from or what goes in it. Choose a kind, then Hot or Cold, and the two rows work together.

A random soda generator in one tap

Tap Soda and fizzy drinks and the draw keeps to 28 sodas. Some are flavours sold almost everywhere, such as root beer and cream soda. Others belong to one place: Irn-Bru to Scotland, Inca Kola to Peru, tarragon-green Tarkhuna to Georgia. A link to this page ending in #soda opens it with the chip already pressed.

In a café queue with no idea what to order

Set the count to 1 and choose Coffee or Tea and infusions: there are 30 of each, from a cortado to a London fog. On a cold day add Hot, and the teas drop to the 25 that are poured hot, which leaves out bubble tea, sweet tea and tereré. Hot and Cold are our own grading: 59 hot, 93 cold, with kompot and barley tea under both.

Tips

  • Planning a party for all ages? Tap Mocktails and draw 3 for a short menu. There are 9, among them a virgin mojito and a cherry limeade.
  • Stuck on a letter in an alphabet game? Starts with Y gives yerba mate, yuja tea and yuenyeung.
  • Try one new drink a week: tap Juices, lemonades and coolers, draw 1, and make it at home. Limonana is only lemonade blended with mint leaves.

Questions and answers

Is this also a random cocktail generator?

No. Every drink on this page is alcohol free, because children use this site. The Mocktails chip holds 9 mixed drinks that look the part, such as a virgin mojito, a Shirley Temple and a lime rickey, and none needs anything from a bar. There are no drinking games here either.

Why are some drinks missing?

The list keeps to drinks that are sold and served as alcohol free. Kvass, kombucha and eggnog are out because they can carry some alcohol, and so is any mocktail that needs bitters. Ginger beer and mauby stay: both were once brewed, both are now normally plain soft drinks, and their cards say so.

How were the drinks checked?

The list is ours. Each line was read against the drink's own Wikipedia article on 18 September 2026. Drinks named after people, such as the Shirley Temple, are the drinks' usual names and imply no link to anyone. We have no connection to Vimto, Moxie or any other brand named here.

How this list was compiled: We wrote this list of 150 non-alcoholic drinks ourselves. Origins, dates, ingredients and name meanings were checked on 2026-09-18 against each drink's English Wikipedia article, read through https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php (indexes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_soft_drink_flavors, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_coffee_drinks and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_non-alcoholic_mixed_drinks). The lines for lime rickey, doogh, mauby and ginger beer were read again on 2026-09-19. Every drink here is sold and served as alcohol free. Drinks that can carry some alcohol from fermentation, such as kvass and kombucha, and mixed drinks that need bitters were left out. Ginger beer and mauby were once brewed and are now usually plain soft drinks, and their lines say so. Drinks named after people are the drinks' usual names and imply no link to anyone. Brand names are plain text and imply no affiliation. The Hot and Cold tag (59 hot, 93 cold, 2 served both ways) is our own grading of how each drink is usually served. Licence: own work
