A documentation and review of limited time, special edition, or otherwise hard-to-find noms.
Product circa: 2024 and 2026
On paper, this feels like an all-time varietal, but in practice, the coconut flavor is quite faint, and I would have preferred it stronger, almost like what you'd from Sonic Drive-In if you ordered a Dr. Pepper with a coconut add-in. With that said, this stuff is still damn good, and I easily drank a whole 12 pack with time to spare. And evidently, it was popular enough that it has returned in 2026.
Product circa: post-2020
I vaguely remember this tasting of melon, but it was mostly forgettable. Label is cool AF, though.
Just a post dumping old pics that I never posted. I don't have individualized reviews of these, but I remember especially that the Oreos below were very good overall.
This is from years ago. I remember these being very tasty, I would love to buy these occasionally.
Products circa: Summer 2026
Yet another promotion for the 2026 World Cup.
Blood Orange Kick - It took me years to understand the flavor of blood orange. The way I describe it today is a slightly more savory version of orange, a savoriness that borders on tomato. Anyway, this has nothing of that. It tastes mostly like any orange sports drink, but the flavor is slightly worse.
White Grape Wave - They somehow managed to alter the artificial grape flavor to simulate a commendably realistic white grape flavor. It's not bad, but it's an odd mix with the sports drink base.
Cold Berry Burst - A tart blue raspberry with other generic "berry" thrown in. Not teeming with flavor, but probably just the right amount of subtlety to make it easy to chug. However, this stuff has the "cooling" menthol-like ingredients (which the internet doesn't readily identify)
Product circa: 2026
Dragon fruit/pitaya is having a moment, I guess. In my cynical opinion, it's only popular because of its appearance. I tried the stuff fresh many many years ago, and it's sweet, but its flavor is so subtle to almost be non-existent. I think that any processed food product claiming to be flavored with it is being disingenuous. Further, the color of its flesh is also white/colorless, and so any colorful dragon fruit products are also just doing it for "vibes".
Dew: Anyway, while its safe to say that this Dew doesn't look or taste like a dragon fruit beverage might or should, it caught me off guard on how tasty it is. Overall, I'm just tasting "tropical", but it works so well, and it very much reminds me of Sprite Tropical Mix. Call this Dew Tropical Mix.
TicTac: Extremely average. Generic fruitiness, a touch of floral, but it does end with a nice sourness as it dissolves.
