Slightly sweet. Rich natural citrus flavor is fairly simple but retains all the characteristics of a satsuma/mikan fruit with some acid and a nice tang from the memory of the peel. Finish is long but nice. Ok. Purchased from Snackmagic

Slight sweet. The coffee hits hard and strong, but with enough sweetness to blunt the bitterness. Probably closer to an espresso than drip. Reasonable depth from some malt integrates really well. Compares really well to RTD cold brew coffees, but with a slightly different flavor profile. Recommended. Purchased at …

Medium sweet. Nicely captures a decent fruit flavor from start to finish, with just enough of the floral characteristics of pomegranate to seem somewhat natural. Lacks the tannins in the real fruit, which is nice in some ways. Long finish. Ok. Purchased from Snackmagic

Medium sweet. Floral start is fairly rich without being too powerful. Citrus is present mostly with a light acid but does contribute a bit of flavor mostly in the middle. The elderflower persists through the somewhat long finish that is somewhat muddled by the sweeteners. Ok. Purchased from Snackmagic

Quite sweet. Bright and accurate citrus explodes from the start, ripens in the middle, and lingers exceedingly pleasantly in the extended finish. Very slightly tart, but not enough for a true pucker. Lightly acidic enough for the hint of an edge. Fragrant nose. Over all just pretty much stunningly good. Highly …

Medium sweet. I was pretty skeptical about this flavor working with the vinegar base after trying their cola, but I'm pleasantly surprised at the result. Starts a little sweet and then adds just a little bit of tartness from the vinegar before a lovely herbal spice comes through with lots of vanilla. The finish is …

Slightly sweet. Starts with sharp natural grapefruit with medium acid but gains a fairly odd flavor in the middle that grows through the finish and persists for quite awhile. Something like powdered sugar maybe? Certainly candy-like. Would otherwise be a very nice carbonated and unsweetened grapefruit soda, but hard to …

Slightly sweet. Bright natural citrus with just enough acid runs from start to medium-long finish. Fairly uncomplicated. I can't quite put my finger on it, but over all comes across as somewhat unsatisfying. Definitely not bad, but maybe just: Ok. Purchased from Snackmagic

Slightly sweet. Interesting start is both sweet and slightly bitter before the full tones of both the fruit and the earthy matcha open up in the middle. Flavors definitely meld well and provide quite a complicated and well structured palate. Finish is long and features the matcha more than anything. Ok. Purchased from …

Not sweet. Pretty classic cream ale with a malty start and a touch of hops bitterness at the end. A little bit of a tinny taste over the top, but not incredibly noticeable. Long bread-y finish. Ok. Purchased at Stinson Wine, Beer and Spirits

Medium sweet. Somewhat complicated start with the almost natural fruit nearly overpowered by a somewhat woody tea flavor. The fruit briefly wins out in the middle before the tea returns for a bow in the finish. The flavors never quite meld through the whole experience but don't fight either. Fairly short and almost …

Quite sweet. Deep and rich flavor from start to finish is similar to both tamarind and black tea. Just tart enough to be called somewhat sharp, but not enough to call it sour. I suspect this is the kind of soda that people will either love or hate, but is absolutely worth trying. Recommended. Purchased from the Xoca …

Quite sweet. Tart start from the cacao juice eventually lets a light spearmint surface and float over the complex extended finish. The mint really highlights aspects of the cacao juice nicely rather than covering it up. Recommended Purchased from the Xoca website

Very sweet. Most of the things I said in the review of the sugared variety applies here. I think the artificial sweetener blend might work slightly better. The "subtle cooling sensation" feels slightly less out of place among the inherently artificial NutraSweet and AceK flavors. Ok. Purchased from Walmart …

Very sweet. Coke has done pretty well in getting people to ask a pretty odd question the past few weeks: "What does 'space' taste like?" It's not hard to see why since the can actually does say "Space Flavored" on the label. I got a pack of both the regular sugar and zero sugar varieties the first …

Medium sweet. Some beverages really straddle the line between juice, soda, or whatever and this is a perfectly good example. It would be easy to categorize this with their competitor down the coast but this comes across less as a soda than as a juice, justifying the label of "ginger beverage". Raw ginger is …

Very sweet, though bordering on Sugarbomb. So much more floral than I was expecting. The flavor is an odd, but not unpleasant, mix between natural apple, lychee, and artifical blueberry. Hits strongly floral at the start, moving through the fruits in the middle and end, then resolving into a lightly floral very long …

Quite sweet. Definitely orange-ish flavor though has more in common with a cheap orange flavored candy than anything natural. Slightly tangy which adds some depth to an otherwise pretty lackluster soda. Mercifully brief finish. Ok. Purchased at FYE Maplewood Mall

Very sweet. Nicely sharp acid without being overpowering provides a good backdrop for nice lemon flavors. Hints of maybe a berry-ish fruit make vague appearances, but if the word "strawberry" wasn't on the label I'm not sure I would have noticed. Extended and nicely complicated lemon finish. Purchased at FYE …

Very sweet. Reasonably good classic orange soda. Not much bitterness, but does have some around the edges. Finish is long but fine. Ok. Purchased at FYE Maplewood Mall

Quite sweet. Floral and fruit in equal parts tries pretty hard to stay true to a natural flavor but gets stuck a little bit in an uncanny valley. Floral lingers pleasantly for quite awhile but does fade. Ok. Purchased at FYE Maplewood Mall

Quite sweet. Classic artificial grape soda for the most part. The finish is slightly odd in that it fades from the center to nothing very quickly. Ok. Purchased at FYE Maplewood Mall

Very sweet. The label says "vanilla", but that's not what I'm tasting. Fairly acidic, almost citrus-like but never really resolves into much beyond "sweet". Maybe "vaguely flavored" is the best description? I suspect the use of the word vanilla on the labelling should have been …

Very sweet. Light, bright, and citrusy. A bit more lemon than lime, for all that it's mostly a pretty good generic citrus soda. Closer to 7-Up than to Sprite. Decent finish. Ok. Purchased at FYE Maplewood Mall

Not sweet. It is interesting to note that the label lists both My Private Label and Ginseng UP, which gives some idea where some of their formulations are being sourced. Just opening the bottle releases very fragrant artificial strawberry, with the actual flavor a pretty close match. Stays fragrant in the mouth all the …

Very sweet. Surprisingly, a very good example of a classic orange soda. Checking the packaging, the white label provider appears to be My Private Label who pretty clearly know how to make a good soda. Clean orange flavor from start to medium long finish. Good cane sugar ensures that finish is pretty clean. Surprisingly …

Medium sweet. I am conflicted. Unlike the Sour Blueberry this one is much closer to the flavor of the natural fruit. At the same time it's also kind of a generic "berry" flavor. It would be nice if I had another can of the blueberry so I could do a blind tasting because I'm really not sure I could tell the …

Medium sweet. Picture in your mind the classic grape soda: Nehi, Buddy's, Boots, Fanta, whatever. Now, imagine there is a dial on the bottle (because of course it's in a glass bottle) that is currently set to 11 out of 10. Turn that dial down to a 4 or 5 and you get this. The classic grape flavor is still there but it …

Medium sweet. Perhaps slightly tart, but hardly sour. Plenty of fruit, and I suppose it is vaguely blueberry like. Certainly blue and berry anyway. This is not to say it's bad. It's just... fine? Short finish. Ok. Purchased from United Sodas of America

Slightly sweet. The flavor is deceptive in that it is mostly in the nose, so in the mouth while it smells like it should be really full, rich, and creamy coconut, in the mouth it feels thin and lacking. Really long, slightly sour finish. Pass. Purchased from United Sodas of America
