Aaron's Comments: Cherry Breese describes itself as a "pure cane sugar soda". A better description might be "a mildly cherry flavored soda", since the cherry flavor in this soda is among the most elusive that I have tasted. Adding ice cuts through the cherry flavor entirely, reducing it to a mere footnote among the strong sweet flavors of the soda. Using most cherry sodas in an ice cream float results in a combination that tastes like cherry vanilla ice cream in liquid form. A Cherry Breese ice cream float, on the other hand, tastes very much like vanilla ice cream that was exposed to a little bit of cherry flavor at some point in the past. This isn't necessarily a negative - a soda with a mild cherry flavor is somewhat interesting, as opposed to many other sodas that try to overpower you with an almost oppressive dose of concentrated flavor. If what you are looking for is a light, modestly flavored cherry soda, this is the one for you.
