No one that I have heard of likes this stuff other than me. I think it's rather refreshing. Unlike Pepsi Twist or Dr. Pepper red fusion. I hope it's here to stay.

Well, I won't say I didn't cringe when I drank it, because I did. It tastes like the elixer they put in Icees (or slushies) for the Blue Rasberry flavor--it's too sweet.

But, I've only had it warm..I might give it another chance when it's cold..

I tell ya though, Dr. Pepper Red Fusion--hooo boy. That car ride home had never heard such burps in all it's life.. :p

There's a blue berrie pepsi?! News to me.....doesn't sound that good though. Maybe a taste only a few people would really enjoy...think I'll just stick with Diet Coke, Sprite, Dr.Pepper.

I haven't seen this in the store yet, but I can't say I was looking for it, tho I did see Red Fusion Dr Pepper. I got a bottle of that and thought it tasted great, and hope that's also here to stay!

You know what, I just had a sip of it this morning...and what do you know, I find a thread about it here.

Hmm, its decent but not really great. It has more flavor than Vanilla Coke (Coke's new drink), but I still prefer VC than this stuff.

Heh, my mother said that Pepsi Blue tastes like Histamine...@_@

It's not out in Chicago yet. I don't drink caffeine but i'll give it a try. How's the DR. Pepper Red Fusion ?

ZorBrak

07-28-2002, 06:27 PM

I tried it... I liked it. The nastiest soda I have had recenetly was that melon flavored mellow yellow yuck!

A NOTE TO THE MODS: You think you could put up a poll for this thread? Thanks;)

Blue Berry Pepsi?

I like Vanilla Coke, Cherry Coke, and love Dr Pepper. But never will I willingly try a new Pepsi flavor. :D I didn't even know it was out. :D Almost afraid to imagine what will be next...almost.

Mad Scientist

There's a blueberry-flavored Pepsi?! Since when did that come out?

BLACKHEART

07-28-2002, 08:44 PM

I've been drinking this stuff for about a week. I like the sugar rush personally. It does taste like a slushie. I think I've been drinking it cause I don't see it being around next year. If only Pepsi Twist would go away

This stuff is everywhere around here. All stores carry it. Just look in the 20oz cold section and look for blue Pepsi. Can't miss it ;)

It's funny how hated Pepsi is... like it killed everyone's first born son...yet when Coke so ununiquely berry coke in 2 monthes all these people will buy it....UGGH it's just like how everyone refused to play Dreamcast even though it had SO many better games than PS2 (and it still does) and when the practically EQUALLY powerful system comes out (well sans four controllers, online play, good launch titles, and modem) everone rushed to buy it...

Pepsi - Britney Spears and Jeff Gordon :eek:

Coke - Christina Aguwhatever but while that's not a great feat it was ONLY ONCE so it's excusable. :cool:

Plus Coke's stronger. :cool:

There needs to be new flavors. It helps keep things fresh its just when these new flavors are horrible we don't like them such as the new Dr. Pepper. There's not much you can do to improve it. They should have just made it clear

Barb Gordon

07-29-2002, 12:34 AM

New flavors are great...they make you really appreciate the basic varities like Coke or Sprite that much more!

I haven't had Sprite in years. They need to do something to improve it :) I like variety yet I seem to only be drinking three things now

Barb Gordon

07-29-2002, 01:11 AM

well, there IS Diet Sprite....which sometimes isn't so bad, but other times it's like "who the heck came up with this?!" Actually that's kind of how I feel about Pepsi Twist....

You want to try a good diet drink? Take some Pepsi One and put some real lemon juice in it, it really tastes good if your only drinking diet stuff!

There's a Diet Sprite? That's a first. Jeez, everything's been made into diet these days. Pretty soon, there will be Diet Ice Tea, if it hasn't been invented already...

Wait, wait, wait...Canada may be a little behind on this, but...BLUEBERRY PEPSI??? Weird.

And here I thought that Vanilla Coke was a weird idea.

I tried the Pepsi blue, and it's alright. It's disgusting when it's warm though, so if you're gonna drink it, drink it cold. It's alright.

Karkull

07-29-2002, 09:55 AM

I haven't tried it. I'll have to check my area to see if it's out. I've seen Dr. Pepper Red Fusion, but only in the two-liter bottle...and I don't want to buy one of those and find out I don't like it.

Foolish soda companies. BRING BACK SURGE!

BLACKHEART

07-29-2002, 11:39 AM

Chances are if you bought that 2 liter you'd be throwing it away after one drink

Moutain Dew: Code Red. Best served cold.
Vanilla Coke. Yummy when cold. Cream soda taste.

Haven't seen Blue Pepsi yet; Dr. P's Red Fusion I saw but didn't try yet.

The melon Mello Yello is the best flavor of that soda! Ever! [COLD. Cold attracts the thirsty. The strong, the weak. The innocent, the corrupt. COLD. Cold is your ally.* - self, doing bad Darth Maul impersonation]

I have found that the blue Pepsi tastes best with ice

I couldn't have said it better myself.

Pepsi is my favorite cola, and I have I opted for a DC instead of a ps2 :D

I so agree with you there Karkull. Man I miss Surge. We would get the 1liter cans in the stores here for 99 cents. Oh what a rush - take one after lunch and you are not sleepy till you get home from work.

oh, by the way - didn't even know about the blue pepsi here in Iowa. (or at least my little section of it).

Enough choices???? How many new soda products have Coke and Pepsi released in the last 10 years? I bet it's low enough to count on your fingers. Boring.

new choices are great and all but I wish they had come backs. I miss the pepsi clear.

Yeah. I really miss Surge. That stuff kicked ass.

And while they're at it, they should stop making diet sodas, because they taste like [expletive].

Joe Wagner

I haven't seen the Blueberry Pepsi yet but it should have been released in stores on Monday. So far I have tried Vanilla Coke and Dr. Pepper Red Fusion and have really enjoyed both of them. However I have yet to find the melon Mellow Yellow but I did try Pibb X-Tra (pretty tasty too). So far the only one that I haven't really cared for was Pepsi Twist - altho I am a Coke drinker first and a Pepsi drinker second.

Now if we could only get Pepsi to release the original Crystal Pepsi again......

I need to try that new DR Pepper and see what that is like yet.

TheKing

BLACKHEART

07-30-2002, 05:31 PM

You don't really want to. Trust me on that

On a related note I have realized that all soda taste better with ice but it does improve the blue berry cola significantly. Maybe it waters down the sweetness everyone complains about. I don't know I'm not Mr. Wizard

Joe Wagner

Personally I think you should try Red Fussion theKing - everyone has different tastes and I know that I've enjoyed it quite a bit.

As for Blue Berry Pepsi - I just found some yesterday and thought that it tasted pretty good - altho I did think that it tasted a lot like the Blue Jolt that's out. Or the Blue Shock Mt. Dew Slushi from 7/11.

-Joe!

I tried Pepsi Blue last night and I have to say I really didn't care for it. I like all the other new ones (but have not tried Dr. Pepper red Fusion yet), but not this one, and Pepsi is my beverage of choice.

It's not that I would never drink it again, but I won't be seeking it out either. It'd be like this:
Person I am hanging out with: "Dude, you want a blue Pepsi?"
The Penguin: "Sure, I could go for one."

I won't be investing any cash in it though. Vanilla Coke yes, Pepsi Blue, no.
