Review - Fanta Cherry Soda

Bottler: Coca-Cola

Calories per Ounce: 13.5

Caffeine: No

Aaron's Comments: I love cherry sodas. The redhead does not, as she finds them to taste like cough medicine. Cherry Fanta, while a decent cherry flavored soda with a definite cherry taste, does have a kind of medicinal aftertaste to it. I'd blame it on the mix used to give the soda a cherry flavor, but the bottle boasts that it is made with "100% natural flavors", so I'm guessing that it is just the particular concentration of flavoring that makes it have the particularly cough syrupy aftertaste. Adding ice seems to mute this tendency, and the tart and sweet cherry flavor shines through without tasting like Robitussin. As one might expect, this soda makes a superior ice cream float, with the resulting combination tasting very much like good cherry vanilla ice cream.
