Pepsi is too sweet to mix with American whiskey.
At risk of being stuck-up: What, and Coca-Cola is not too sweet? Cola is sugar water with a bit of flavour.
It's a slight difference. Pepsi has 40.9g of sugar for a 375mL serving size, and Coke is 39.8g for the same.

That said, Coke is actually a very complex drink. Which is readily apparent from the various DIY recipes that are floated online. Mixed alcoholic drinks aren't nearly as complicated as Coke. That "with a bit of flavour" part is doing a lot of heavy lifting.
That's my take away from this. If I ask for a jack and coke or rum and coke, the "and coke" is just as important as the rest. Pepsi isn't what I want. I would never give the OK to swap out the mixer. I'd rather just drink the liquor straight.
I'd be fine with Pepsi for rotgut Scotch mixers like Johnnie Walker Red or Dewar's White I think, it's just American whiskey is already sweet as hell.
Can people who "enjoy" a Rum + Coke actually tell?
