  • I love the nostalgia trip Pepsi has been taking us on. Starting with the Crystal Pepsi return of a few years ago through now, what's next? Pepsi Holiday Spice? I hope so!

    I have a sealed bottle of original Pepsi blue. i have kept it in my basement for 20 years. For some reason the bottle is smashed like there is a vacuum inside sucking in the sides and its still sealed but all deformed. Does anyone know how to get it back to its original shape without opening it?

    Bought a six pack today, plus a single bottle to have then and there. I really dig it, never tried it when it came out because I must’ve been like 1 or 2 years old. I remember seeing some product pictures of it online years later and it always intrigued me. Much like Crystal Pepsi did. I mean that label alone was killer, and with blue being my favorite color it made it even more intriguing.
    But yeah man, it pretty much lived up to my expectations. Like you said in the video, gonna try and buy up as much as I can.

    I bought one of these last night from Walmart and tried it in the car the craziest thing happened I'm 28 I instantly remember the flavor from when I was a kid and I swear I instantly thought this was the original Mountain Dew blue flavor until last night then I realized it was Pepsi Blue and I had confused the Blue Mountain Dew with the Pepsi blue all these years I love the Blue Mountain Dew but all these years I've been wishing it went back to the original flavor and come to find out it was Pepsi Blue all this time I've been thinking of. I turn the car around went back to Walmart and spent. $38.67 on a bunch of Pepsi Blue they need to keep Pepsi Blue as the new flavor

Pepsi got a lot of different flavors around the world that's why I think Pepsi really should do a special 2 International flavors release a month for people to be able to try different flavors cuz sometime I'm able to order International flavored Pepsi from another country off eBay but the price for 1 can or bottles is marked up high

    I wish Coke would do this because I'd like to try New Coke again. When I was a kid I couldn't taste the difference, and Coke _supposedly_ brought it back a couple years ago but I never saw it.
    I'm bad with soda taste tests. I can't tell the diffence between Coke and Pepsi, and I drank Mexican Coke with real sugar instead of corn syrup and didn't even notice it.

      About 500,000 cans of New Coke were produced for the promotion, to be sold mostly online. So many people were eager to buy it, however, that the volume of orders crashed the Coca-Cola website. Many fans complained because they wanted to order some, and the company apologized for the delays on social media platforms. It was also available in select vending machines in cities such as New York and Los Angeles.
      According to Wikipedia
