One thing I remember from my early childhood is having softdrink delivered to our house like once a week by this truck. Can't for the life of me remember what it was called though Was around the late 80s/early 90s. It came in glass bottles that might of been reused...

I remember that myself. Only difference I had mine delivered to my door in Wangaratta on a weekly basis i think and yes...always glass bottles. They were around 1.25 litres I think. It makes me furious because I'm also trying to find the company to get them for my kids. It really sucks. I've hopped on heaps of forums and websites but still I can't get even an old pic of them. I even remember the flavours my favourite was Cream Soda but that also had Sarsparella, Raspberry, Lime, Pineapple, Orange I can't think of the rest.
The bottles I got delivered were see through, the lids were coloured to specific flavour e.g. orange colour for orange flavour, lime colour for lime flavour and so on. On top of the lids were written in white, the flavours of what they are. If you end up finding out please let me know as I'd love to share that experience with my kids

Those flavours sound like they may be from Tarax. I might be to young to remember the home delivered bottles but their plastic bottles at the shop were certainly them flavours.

I worked for the company in 2000-2 that made Torquay soft drink!!
They were a small factory in Airport West called BCB beverages and in 2002 CUB bought them out and shut the doors!!
Back then they use to do the 30 packs of soft drink Aldi, Coles & Kmart also were big with UDL cans and just before they got bought out they had they vodka cruiser contract!!

Back in the 2010’s I tried Inca Cola in Peru. Diabetes in a bottle. Delicious but very sweet. Pretty sure there was something similar many years ago here as a kid.
