Anyone tried the new Raspberry and Coke drink

[carole]

Just purchased a bottle from the supermarket yesterday, it is only new here in NZ, so thought we would give it a try, I also see it is available in Diet as well.

I would rate it very low, I hated the taste, infact one glass was enough for me, the rest of the family said it was ok, I mean if there was nothing else in the house to drink I would drink it, but overall I was not at all impressed.

Just wondered what you all think?

Coke a Cola you can do better than this.!!!!

[Buddy Blaze Lover]

Oh, I love raspberry...I haven't tried it yet, but it sounds really good!!!:)

[carole]

I am also a big fan of Raspberry, so I was looking forward to it as well, but honestly I had trouble drinking it, but then that could be just my taste buds.:)

[dukedogsmom]

It sounds delicious. I don't think we have it in the U.S. They've got that horrible lime, though. I don't care for it at all.

[Samantha Puppy]

Hadn't heard anything about a Raspberry Coke flavor. I don't think I'd like it, not the biggest fan of raspberries.

[carole]

Rumour has it NZ was one of the first in the world to get the new flavour, don't ask me why, but I saw some competition on the net on a NZ site saying that, Val I hate the lime one too, I think this one is not much better, so don't be holding your breath, for that magical taste..

[CagneyDog]

The Lime one was just disgusting.

I think the Raspberry sounds good:p

[carole]

Yep that is exactly what I thought, I have mixed raspberry fizzy with coke before and it tastes nice, but this particular blend I really donot care for, be interesting to see how well it does in the market, and if anyone here likes it.:)

[dukedogsmom]

We can get a bottle of it on Ebay for only $9. Carole, you don't have Cherry Coke there? I think I would die without that. It's delicious.

[catnapper]

yuck, that sounds just awful. I am not a fan of cola to start with -- much too sweet for my taste... but ot add the extra sweetness of raspberries? I can't imagine! Especially since I don't like raspberries either! :D

[christa]

I don't drink pop/soda (whatever you wanna call it). It's BAAAAAD! ;)

[dukedogsmom]

I read that it's being tried out in NZ. Depending on how it does there will depend on if they market it anywhere else.

[sammy101]

i dont really like flavoured pop.The only one i like is Pepsi with Lime.Its sounds good though!i might try it!

[carole]

Ah so that is the reason, we are being used a guniea pigs, well this one is not a fan, nope we don't get Cherry cola here, wow nine dollars a bottle, wow it is like two dollars 19 here for a 2 litre bottle.

[PJ's Mom]

Raspberry is my favorite fruit flavor. I'd love to try it! :D

[Suki Wingy]

hmmm... as I am obsessed with the coke brands (kinley lemon, Mezzo Mix, etc.) and I can't live without diet lime coke, sound awsome, although I have not seen it in Chicagoland yet.

[ChrisH]

Seems they got the idea from watching people making up their own coke flavour with raspberry syrup. Read about it here:

I like the flavoured Coke, lemon, and the vanilla, but not the plain, so I'd definately try the raspberry if and when it makes it to the UK. :D

[BitsyNaceyDog]

I'm not a big fan of coke. Cherry coke is ok, snd Diet Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper isn't too bad. I'll try the raspberry coke if it comes over here, but I don't know if I'd like it. I do love raspberries.

[Suki Wingy]

I am sort of a pop conesoir and This is one of my fav. pages, you can select the brand at the bottom.

cherry and vainilla Coke?? There not that kind of things here, but it doesnt sound very nice to me, so I wouldn't try it!

[Suki Wingy]

oh yeah and I hate cherry coke and I hate pepsi and all its flavours.

[Jods]

Put the lime in the coke you nut and shake it all up.... LOL I loved the lime Coke!! But I could only try it since I am preggo and trying to be good ;) :rolleyes:

[Anita Cholaine]

I really like to put lemon and lots of ice cubes in Coke. It's perfect for summer!
