Jones Soda Halloween Flavor Taste Test

When Slashfood saw these cute 8-ounce cans of limited-edition Halloween flavors, we had to try them. Every year Seattle's Jones Soda puts out four flavors suitable for trick-or-treaters -- and this year, they're tempting us with Buried Pomegranate, Spooookiwi, Candy Corn and Lemon Drop Dead.

We cracked open each so you don't have to. See how they stack up after the jump.

Food Favors - The Hungry Bride



When it comes to the end of the wedding, you're faced with the decision of whether or not the wedding favor is worth even picking up to take home. Let's face it: Mints and almonds just don't make the cut anymore. With all the creative and tasty ideas available today, the bar has been raised for increasingly unique favors.

It's safe to say that with me as the bride, my guests will assume they should take home something edible, but what, exactly? So far, the best favors I've come across are miniature milk and cookies, but that can add up quickly.

What would you like to see on the favor table?

Jones Soda's Campaign Cola



The ever topical entrepreneurs behind Jones Soda have set up an ancillary site at campaigncola.com to tout their new line of politically-based sodas, and spill a little electoral info while they're at it. While copy touts the benefits of being able to ensure the victory of one's chosen candidate via financial support (the "winner" is the candidate whose bottles sell in greatest quantity), the site also contains a handy "Voting Vernacular" page, information about voter registration, and access to a politically-oriented section of the Jones Soda message boards.

While some might argue that save for a few cosmetic details, the "candidates" are essentially identical, or that Jones is just trying to make a buck off the partisan divide, I'm thinking that's pretty much politics as usual.

Lol cats goes offline and teams up with Jones Soda

A bottle of Jones Soda with an lol cats image on the label.OMG, icanhascheezburger.com is teaming up with Jones Soda! If you don't know about the wildly popular lol cats, you've been buried further under the rock than I have. The trend combines a cute cat image with a funny caption, and its been tremendously popular on the internet.

Now this movement is headed out into the real world as a label on Jones Soda brand drinks. The soda maker approached the website icanhascheezburger.com about using this imagery, and the website agreed. There's also a contest on the website to create more lol cat images specifically to adorn the front of Jones Soda bottles.

Jones Soda is known for its interesting and offbeat labels, as well as for being a higher end soft drink. Now they may be known for bringing an internet trend to the unconnected masses. Don't look now, but Jones Soda is in ur internet, stealin ur trends!

Jones Soda Carbonated Candy

I used to love weird candy when I was a kid. As a matter of fact I still do, although I don't actually eat much candy nowadays. I just write about them occasionally. Big Sky Brands in conjunction with Jones Soda Company, known for their tasty and wacky holiday sodas, came out with carbonated candy in soda flavors last summer, and has started adding to the flavor line-up.

The candy flavors are now available in Cream Soda, M.F. Grape, Fufu Berry, Berry Lemonade, Green Apple, and Orange & Cream. The candy has "an oddly enjoyable tongue-tingling sensation," and come 50 to a tin for around $2.00.

Jones Soda Carbonated Candy is now being sold nationwide at chains including Target, Kroger, Speedway SuperAmerica, 7- Eleven, Hot Topic, Spencer's, Zumiez, and Albertson's.

Jones Soda every bit as romantic as bubble gum and roses

The people at Jones Soda sent me a Valentine's Day special "Love Potion #6" pack with two bottles of Jones soda, romantic CD, lip balm and coupon book.

Nicole didn't much like the Thanksgiving pack. With flavors like "turkey and gravy" and "corn on the cob," who would? The love potion was far better. Though it was sweetened with high fructose corn syrup (usually, I won't touch the stuff), it wasn't quite as super-cloyingly-sweet as most mainstream sodas. The flavor was really delicious and I can best describe it as "pink." I tasted notes of bubblegum, rose (just a hint) and strawberry. In fact, it tastes exactly like it looks, sweet, pink, and silly. If they reformulate it and lose the high fructose, I will beg for this to become a regular flavor. I love the taste of pink! Who wouldn't?

Jones wants you to give soda, not chocolate, this Valentine's

Would it even be an American holiday without a special edition soda from Jones? This year Jones is introducing its limited edition "Love Potion #6" soda in a special pack that includes two bottles of the pink drink, Love Potion #6 lip balm, a CD sampler, and a coupon book full of "love coupons" to exchange with your sweetheart.

Jones Sodas are available at Target, a variety of other retailers, or online, where you can purchase the pack for $9.99 plus shipping. Jones will be sending out 10,000 Valentine's packs to U.S. troops in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Which is all fine and dandy. But what I want to know: how does it taste? A pack is wending its way from Seattle to me, I'll give a full report in a few days...

Tip of the Day

Drying fruit is easy, mostly hands-off and yields a sweet and healthy snack.
