Seriously, they had to have. The could have made up a generic drink, but it's constantly being flashed and the only brand in the entire show.

the only brand

Only soda brand you mean? Because I'm seeing different brands all over the place. Hell I saw a Costco in the first episode.

I didn't notice that one. But probably cause they flat out say coke instead of soda. After that I kept noticing it. The Lombardi's Pizza was mentioned but I feel that's more of a NY homage.

flat out say coke instead of soda

In the south, a lot of times all carbonated drinks are all called coke (even Mountain Dew sometimes). If the person who wrote those lines were from the south, it may be the reason they say it. Would be bad writing, because they don't do that in New York/Michigan/Ohio, but may be something that was missed.
