A friend who knows me well got a four pack of the “treat-sized” Jones Candy Corn soda and brought it in to work for me today. Good thing since I had not been able to find it at my local Target. A couple of notes: It is Yellow. (FD&C Yellow no. 5 to be specific) [...]

Yesterday was a very good soda day. Jennifer arrived for our usual date night with my birthday present a few days early: A mixed case of The Sopranos soda. (Do follow that link and make sure to watch the commercial, it’s fairly funny. The timing is a bit off but it works.) I’m drinking my [...]

BevNet has a fairly positive review up of a new line of sodas with some fairly interesting flavors: Rhubarb, Lavender, Lemongrass, and Kumquat. The brand is called DRY Soda, and I only wish I could get some locally. With a mixed-case price starting at $25, plus shipping, I think I’m going to have to wait [...]
