Pepsi Jazz Strawberries & Cream taste test

Imagine that you have been handed a large red snow cone or shaved ice on a hot day. As you take a bite, the first sensation is coolness, followed by a flavor that is somewhere between strawberry and cherry, with a faintly bubble-gum flavored aftertaste. Now, imagine that you take a swig of Pepsi immediate after taking the bite from the snow cone and you'll have a very good idea of what diet Pepsi Jazz Strawberries and Cream tastes like.

The soda is definitely more like that syrupy, artificial "strawberry" than like a real strawberry, but the new Pepsi flavor isn't bad at all, especially if you happen to like those red snow cones. As a point of comparison, the Dr Pepper Berries & Cream is a little bit more subtle, but both are interesting alternatives to the now standard cherry-vanilla colas, though it seems like both berry-flavored drinks are a little too sweet to be something you would reach for everyday.

Soda Review: Dr Pepper Berries & Cream

I know that it's been a while since our original post about its release, but I finally got to try a can of Dr. Pepper Berries & Cream. Actually, I have to admit that it was the diet version, and not the regular. No matter. The soda really exceeded my expectations. I thought that it would be overly sweet, perhaps a bit cough-syrupy, but the soda was perfectly sweetened and the berry flavor wasn't overwhelming. You can definitely tell that the flavor is raspberry, though, which was a nice change from all the vanilla/cherry vanilla/ black cherry vanilla sodas going around.

Overall? I thought it was great and I'm glad I opted for the 12-pack instead of a single bottle. It means that I don't have to go back out to the store so I can have another one.

Pepsi Jazz competes with flavored colas?

This July, Pepsi is expected to release a new line of carbonated, zero-calorie, fruit flavored sodas called Pepsi Jazz. Possible flavors are rumored to include strawberries and cream and black cherry french vanilla, so the sodas are designed to compete with Black Cherry-Vanilla Coke and the Soda Fountain line of Dr. Pepper drinks, which include both Berries and Cream and Cherry-Vanilla flavors. The fruity offerings from Pepsi's competitors are doing well and, though it is a bit late entering the market with its flavors, Pepsi fans will still be looking forward to seeing them when they do finally hit the shelves

Dr Pepper Berries and Cream

Dr. Pepper has been planning to add other flavors of soda to its Soda Fountain line since the release of it's Diet and Regular Cherry Vanilla Dr. Peppers in 2004. This month marks the first release of its new flavor: Dr. Pepper Berries and Cream . The new flavors we wildly successful during test marketing and their rollout will continue through June, at which time they should be in stores nationally. Several packs of the new sodas are already for sale on eBay. The official launch started when the company released several  in Plano, Texas, where the headquarters of Cadbury Schweppes, the company behind Dr. Pepper, is located.

Tip of the Day

Have you ever stashed a Coke in the freezer, hoping to chill it quickly, then forgotten all about it, only to have it explode all over your frozen peas?
