Don't open the can far enough for a bee to get in
I have a freind who drinks from soda cans by only opening them a little bit. I find it quite weird, but having tried it it doesn't really make a lot of difference.
When you "pull the tab" or ringpull, just do it a little so the soda can come out, but the bees cannot get in.
You can open them to various degrees, here is a picture of a half opened can to show what I mean
As an example of the mechanics:
Pull the tab gently until the gas escapes, and you have a hairline opening either side of the tab. At that point, you can tilt the can up and suck, and you'll get a reasonable amount out. I've done this frequently when I'm worried about the can falling over and spilling.
