we got a couple of fancy sodas last time we went to the grocery store because they had a sale on everything in the "craft sodas" section
in addition to a couple of interesting things we hadn't tried before, we also got two bottles of tamarind jarritos because it's just really good okay
tamarind soda is tasty

jarritos is a nice brand of soda because like
it's super cheap as bottled soda goes (not as cheap as 12-packs though) at like 70~80¢ a bottle
and it has lots of flavors that you can't really get anywhere else, like tamarind or lime (*not* lemon-lime, that's different)
they also use real sugar which is probably healthier, but we can't taste a difference between cane sugar and HFCS

Mexican soda in general is neat stuff. There are other flavors that aren't common in the US outside Jarritos, too; Sidral Mundet is apple, and there's a sangria one that's hard to describe.
@dodec lychee is probably not going to show up in mexican soda obviously, missed that you were talking about that specifically, but i wouldn't be surprised if prickly pear did
i'd love to try a proper canteloupe-flavored soda too, or honeydew, one of those really tasty melons with more flavor to them than watermelon
