I swear, I entered all of Chris's soda reviews, but somewhere in the editing, and trying to get my italics tags to work right, three reviews got deleted. So I will now dutifully re-transcribe the remaining reviews. Remember, Chris uses a 1-5 scale for his ratings.
Zevia Orange: Tastes like Orange Crush and... wait for it... club soda! Yes! When I was aboy I insisted on orange soda after baseball (Little League) practice I'd have drunk this then and not complained about the sweetener taste. Rating: Another solid 4
Blue Sky Free Cola: Tastes like how I imagine diet RC must taste. There's still a distinct club soda thing goin', but it's not as prevalent as all the Zevias seem to be. I'm still not fond of diet colas, but this one tastes better than the Z. Rating: 2 1/2-3
Blue Sky Free Cherry Vanilla Creme: Tastes like the cough syrup my mom used to feed me (Vicks or NyQuil Red children's) shot through w/club soda. Tastes like the Robitussin we used to buy and chug as teens to get "drunk." And it's clear (colored.) Ghlungxkx, GAHHH!! These are the sounds I made after the first sip. Imagine drinking cotton candy. Yeah. Very disappointing. I'd had high hopes for this one. Oh, well. Rating: 1/2 (probably being generous.)
