Crit-a-Cola, known in full as Bonk! Crit-a-Cola, is a secondary weapon for the Scout. It is a purple soda can from the Bonk! company, sporting the tagline "Manliness guaranteed!".
When the drink is ingested, it gives the Scout the ability to deal mini-crits for 6 seconds with any equipped weapon. However, mini-crits can also be inflicted against the Scout by any enemy for the duration; therefore, Crit-a-Cola is better suited for players who can avoid taking fire while dealing considerable damage to opponents.

Bugs
- Similar to Bonk!, drinking a Crit-a-Cola with the Sandman equipped removes the Scout's baseball. If the ball's recharge meter is full, it will go to zero, as if the ball had been launched. However, the ball will return as normal after the recharge is complete.
- Being hit by Natascha while drinking will interrupt the drinking process. This cancels the use, but still counts as consumption, and as such drains the recharge meter.
- After the April 14, 2011 Patch, when a player changes their Scout secondary loadout the Scout is holding the Bonk! Atomic Punch instead of the Crit-a-Cola.
Trivia
- Crit-a-Cola was designed and created one day before its release.[1] Upon its release, it had the same texture and particle effects as Bonk! Atomic Punch.
- The weapon's name is a play on popular soft-drink brand name 'Coca-Cola'. It also sounds like the word 'critical' spoken with unusual emphasis.
- A can of Crit-a-Cola is strapped on the bottom of the Soda Popper. It is most likey what gives it the ability to mini crit.
- Crit-a-Cola and Bonk! Atomic Punch are listed with ingredients including water, radiation and sugar. Upon closer inspection, the ingredients label reads as follows:
| INGREDIENTS: WATER, RADIATION, SUGAR |
