Neither is objectively “better”—it depends on what you like.

- **Taste:**  
  - **Pepsi** is typically **sweeter** and more **citrusy/vanilla-forward**.  
  - **Coca‑Cola** is usually **less sweet**, with more **spice/caramel** notes and a sharper bite.

- **Carbonation/mouthfeel:**  
  - Many people perceive **Coke** as having a slightly **crisper** carbonation.  
  - **Pepsi** can feel **smoother** and sweeter.

- **Mixing with food/alcohol:**  
  - **Coke** is often preferred with **salty foods** or in classic mixed drinks (e.g., rum & coke) because its spice notes cut through.  
  - **Pepsi** can work well if you want a **sweeter** mixer.

If you tell me whether you prefer **sweeter vs less sweet**, or what you’re pairing it with (pizza, burgers, whiskey, etc.), I can recommend one.
