I've managed to successfully avoid the situation by referring to carbonated non-alcoholic bevarages by brand name, or failing that, by generic flavor-type.
"Excuse me, do you have a Diet Sprite? Well then do you have any diet carbonated lemon-lime beverage?" Or "I'm going to the store to pick up some Diet Coke or other brand of diet cola."
If I could have any accent I wanted, it'd no doubt be Aussie. Those guys get laid like carpet. It almost always makes one more appealing. Exception: Rachel Griffiths, who is unappealing with or without her aussie accent.
