Is there any way I can drink fizzy drinks without adding to the world’s plastic mountain?

I don’t drink tea or coffee and never really drink alcohol, milk or juice at home. So mainly drink water or squash.

I do sometimes drink coke / lemonade but more and more I’m thinking that the amount of drink I get isn’t worth the plastic waste.

(I like my squash really weak so for 2 litres of concentrated squash I get about 40 litres of drink whilst for 2 litres of coke I get only 2 litres of drink.)

So I think I’m going to stop drinking fizzy drinks. But it is as close to a “treat” drink I get so just wanted to check before I pulled the plug so to speak?

Is there any way I can get fizzy drinks without the huge plastic waste? I’m thinking cans are probably worse than bottles with them being so small? Or am I wrong about that? Any other ways?
