i like the zero sugar spark too but it’s such a random crapshoot as to when and where i will find it. how does that poo poo work, do grocery stores just have some weird open contract where the bottler can randomly decide what they will and won’t ship in a given month?

Huh. So I should consider myself blessed by the Dew gods that my local grocery store regularly stocks it? Actually I went there a month ago and they were basically cleaned out of Spark with the only remaining 6 pack expiring in a week so it seems spotty around here too.

Sprite Lymonade Legacy (celebrating 50 years of hip hop) is I think supposed to be Raspberry Lymonade, or maybe, pink Lymonade. I can't really tell for sure. But I did like it.

Saw this along with some Tropical Mix at a Sheetz. Said Sheetz also had Mtn Dew Pitch Black on tap, which was ok. I think I'd just rather have a grape soda. They also had the Atomic Blue, which is in my opinion better than Spark, but I'll stick with zero sugar Spark until Baja Blast comes out, which should be soon.

Also when did Baja become the modifier for this strain of variants? Baja Blast led to Sangrita Blast, originally indicating that Blast was the common thread.

Strawberry Lemonade. I've also tried the new Coke Ultimate, which is Bubblegum flavored Coke. Honestly that tastes better than it sounds. It's way better than Starlight was, which I still have 3 cans of because nobody will drink it.

Wife got me some Ultimate Coke Zero and it's decent. I wouldn't drink a case of it, but was a solid 20oz drink.

Sprite Lymonade was okay, but kinda got just a budget carbonated lemonade flavor after a few sips.

Local 7-Eleven still doesn't have COKE ULTIMATE, but I found this. It's good because it's baja blast, but I don't detect a whole lotta guava.

Guava is such a good juice, I have high hopes for that.

It's less "guava" and more "indistinct tropical flavor" that has been used in previous dews and sprites.

I was able to stock up on Baja Blast Zero, which was interesting because Safeway was coincidentally having a sale at the same time to shovel them out the door for $4 a piece if you bought 5.

Thanks thread, this made me hunt online for it. Kroger has a new delivery service despite not having a single store in town. Was able to order 6 12 packs for $30, delivered, after stacking some coupons.

They were like $9 on the Kroger delivery thing.

But they had a 25% coupon to e-clip then a $15 off your first 3 deliveries thing that stacked.

I think the strawberry and cream Dr. Pepper is okay in bottle form, but it's really really tasty out of the fountain. They got it like that at Circle K.

No one is stopping you from straight up downing a bottle of gravy if you want to relive your youth dreams! I'm sure your loved ones and myself would advise against it, but I think you can buy stuff that carbonates random liquids, so it could be nearly in your grasp!

Wife picked up a 10 pack of the 7-Up Tropical zero for free on a coupon or something for me. I hadn't found a good fruity type diet soda that hasn't tasted like buttholes yet, so I was ready to dump it all down the drain.

It's surprisingly good! I don't get any hint of dietness to the flavoring at all. It tastes like a peach soda almost. I dig it.

It uses aspartame for it's artificial sweetener, so if you like Coke Zero and the Faygo diets because they dont have the diet taste, this one will probably taste just as good.

If I wanted to only drink things that wouldn’t eventually kill me, I wouldn’t be drinking soda at all in the first place. So I may as well have the stuff that does not have a ton of empty calories.

Speaking of, I just tried the Y3000 Coke Zero flavor and it was not good. And that was before I learned that an AI made it.

Nah, not all, for some of us at least. Coke Zero doesn't have it for me. It tastes the same as Coke. Most of the Faygo diets all taste normal to me. You gotta try em all out. It's a process.

Y3000 was really bad. It reminded me of that peepsi soda that came out a while back, except worse in every way. I tried two drinks before I just dumped it out

Once I became acclimated to the taste of diet beverages I can enjoy them. I'm just glad I have never become a person for whom they can't enjoy the sugared versions still because those are of course way better.
