Strawberry

Medium sweet. Fruit start over cream with matching texture. Plenty of people are turned off by the more chunky textures in a drink like this, but the basil seeds are not overwhelmingly present with a good assortment of jellies to keep things interesting. The strawberry is about as natural as a McDonald's shake, which …

Very sweet. Fruity start with a tiny bit of a cola backbone. I suspect that most people will be pretty confused by that fruit start given the prominent "Marshmallow" branding, but it is properly labelled that the collaborating artist is Marshmallow and the actual flavor is intended as watermelon, strawberry, …

Very sweet. Pretty sharp start that is more lemon by feel than by flavor. Quick transition to pretty natural strawberry in the middle with a substantial bloom. Lemon finally shows up some in the medium-long finish, though still dominated by the berry. Ok. Purchased at the Saint Paul Midway Menard's

Very sweet. Fresh strawberry works pretty well with the lemonade base, blunting the acidity a bit. Fruit really blooms in the middle before getting lost in a fairly muddled medium-length finish. Ok. Purchased at the Saint Paul Midway Menard's.

Medium sweet. The fruit starts present but not strong with possibly the vanilla being slightly more prominent. A bit more fruit in the middle and extended finish. Another really good example of their novel sweetener working really well with the flavors but the whole thing comes across somewhat muted. Ok. Purchased from …

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 …

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 …

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 …

Medium sweet. Fruit and basil start has a little bit of white pepper. The fruit is pretty close to natural, though more like the huge and slightly bland strawberries from the grocery store than the intensely flavored wild varieties. In a lot of ways that's kind of how the soda is flavored: laid back and not intense. …

Very sweet. Kind of an interesting blend between a lemon-lime and strawberry soda. Neither side really takes precedence but neither do they quite blend fully either. Would probably be better with 1/2 the sugar. Oddly long citrus-like finish. Ok. Purchased from Blue Sun Soda Shop (Spring Lake Park)

Quite sweet. As with their Ginger Lime flavor the sweetener is hard to place, but in this blend the vinegar has either retained more of it's edge or maybe it's just borrowing from the very prominent lemon. Either way, the berry lightly gilds the underlying sharpness but never quite melds the competeing flavors. The …

Very sweet. Classic artificial strawberry start then adds a fair bit of pucker from the "rhubarb" while lacking in any additional flavor from that purported ingredient. Lacks depth. Ok. Purchased from Blue Sun Soda Shop (Spring Lake Park)

Slightly sweet. That's not entirely accurate, but it gives the impression of sweetness enough to come across as sweet even without any sweeteners present. Related, could be accurately described as what you would get if you had removed all of the sweeteners from their line of strawberry sodas. Tart and candy notes are …

Very sweet. Nicely tart start balances out the candy strawberry and makes it more reminiscent of the real fruit than the long honey toned finish leaves to memory. Ok. Purchased at the Saint Paul Midway Menard's.

Very sweet. Tangy fruit start that is somewhere between classic artificial and natural flavors, enough that I can believe this was near a real version of the named fruit somewhere in it's lineage despite the label unusually declaring only artificial flavors being present. The fruit trends toward candy-ish in the middle …

Quite sweet. Candy-like strawberry hits lightly first but is followed quickly by sharp lime before resurfacing in the middle where the flavors finally blend with the sweeteners and begin a very slow fade through the finish. Ok. Purchased at Stinson Wine, Beer and Spirits

Quite sweet. No fire. Plenty of fruit blended well with ginger and citrus. Sits on the palate for awhile, but pleasantly. Ok. Originally posted to Twitter.
