Wanted to try an energy drink since I usually never drink them but didn't want one with tons of sugar etc but also didn't taste terrible. This would just be a once in a great while occasion.

You should be able to find it for the same price as most other sodas. Admittedly it is one of the only canned beverages that doesn't go on sale though so that's probably what you mean.

You say carbonated drink in the title but specify energy drink in your text. I don't think there are any energy drinks that avoid caffeine. It is one of the cheapest means to chemically boost alertness the food industry is allowed to use.

Non energy drinks should be extremely easy to find. Literally read the ingredients list. Caffeine will either be in the list as it is an additive, or listed in the daily allowance chart (if your country uses those). If you don't find it in either you're good.
