Super glad to see there’s actually a “soda tasting community”, not only do I consider myself a soda enthusiast but I also love seeing the cans and packaging especially since it’s always changing. Concerning the opinions in the video: For Dr. Pepper: the cream soda is pretty bland and really doesn’t taste much different than the regulars flavor so I honestly don’t understand it and dark berry isn’t really all that great, it’s pretty alright at best but definitely not something someone is always looking for. For Coke: regular flavored American Coke just tastes like corn syrup, Diet Coke is much better, Coffee Coke is horrendous yet I see a lot of people are in love with it even though it has absolutely 0 redeeming qualities, Starlight Coke personally I found as an amazing flavor kind of like Vanilla Coke but much better (probably much more corn syrup and honestly I couldn’t find a certain specific flavor for it). OK soda sounds extremely interesting, the marketing is unbelievably extreme and very much marketed, imagine if it came back (obviously at a much more inflated price) it would be much more popular, or so I’d like to think, maybe Coke Life is an attempt of reviving it in some weird way I wouldn’t know I honestly never tried it either. For Pepsi: I remember when the Peeps flavor came out but I was never able to get my hands on it, the cream soda flavors were pretty alright but the Pepsi-Co dark cherry is very very good and I mean the Pepsi cherry is one of the best cherry sodas ever, Pepsi Nitro I didn’t know it was supposed to be a different flavor that’s strange I’ll have to try it, Crystal Pepsi I never was able to try I wasn’t very much a soda enthusiast when it came out which I regret because it was literally everywhere but gosh do I wish they would bring it back, however I was able to try Pepsi Blue it was pretty enjoyable but honestly tasted like cleaning supplies in a weird way. For Mountain Dew: original flavor when I tried it (I drank like 3 in a day once) had all this sugar flavoring and wow I was shocked and fell in love with it even though nowadays it’s become less extreme in flavor in my opinion, Baja Blast should’ve stayed a Taco Bell exclusive honestly it tastes different sold separately and there were also these two other Baja Blast flavors that were HORRENDOUS and didn’t even taste like Mountain Dew I still think they were “Mountain Dew made for middle aged white women” they were that bad, Code Red and Voltage are amazing flavors that are honestly rarely sold because of all the other permanent “test” flavors that so often come out, Major Melon is an AMAZING flavor that Dew enthusiasts often hate on for the sole reason that it “lacks the original Mountain Dew flavor” which is a trash reasoning since it’s such a great flavor, Spark just tastes like a Peace Tea or an Arizona lemonade it’s refreshing but alright, FrostBite is refreshing but yeah pretty much just a sweeter Voltage. And honestly yes, Sodas are super great memory makers, I hate Mango Pepsi but it takes me back to one of the very darkest areas of my life but drinking it now makes me remember it and feel better for how much has changed and how different everything is. People who hate and shit on sodas honestly don’t understand how much this could mean for people who take in the little and simple things, or don’t have much in their life’s in general, we’re not all the same and these sodas mean so much to many people, all of these drinks in general and it’s just a great hobby in general, so many drinks exist and all these people want to drink is water. Anyway, to end off on a lighter note, someone should definitely also make a video on a energy drinks/caffeinated drinks like this too, there’s also a lot of potential in that even though those are much more unhealthier but with all the variations and flavors that exist it could be very well too.
connoisseur = justified addiction
Some real bittersweet memories associated with voltage.. good video and I'm glad youre doing something you actually enjoy now

Blue Pepsi was just like Pepsi in taste
Blue Pepsi was cool. My favorite though, is the Vanilla Coke, best drink ever.
not a huge soda fanatic but I'm glad I got to try crystal pepsi in 2016.
Caffeine free diet coke < coke life, but only barely.
Also, you entirely missed Fanta. I have called the SodaStaffel.
I LOVE CORN SYRUPPPPPP
GIMME THE KORN BABY!!!
I will die 10-15 years earlier but it is worth it.
