Pepsi X

Pepsi has released a new product called Pepsi X in a joint promotion with the music show X Factor. The bottle describes it as a dragon fruit flavored cola. I don't agree with that description. I would describe it as a persimmon flavored cream soda. You can be sure this product is heading for a Crystal Pepsi type fate. Gone and largely forgotten. I would recommend you try it once so you can say you've tasted persimmon Pepsi.

Pepsi Next

In an attempt to fill the 1/2 sugar void left by Coke when they pulled C2 from shelves, Pepsi has introduced Pepsi Next. It has 60 calories a can and tastes about like regular sugar Pepsi. A good option if you can't stand the taste of regular diet cola.

Pepsi Throwback - Reviewed

I saw a few Tivo'd adds for this stuff earlier this week and was curious enough to actually stop fast-forwarding and watch the adds. Curiously - this Pepsi Throwback product features sugar! As opposed to high-fructose corn syrup. Supposedly there is a Mountain Dew Throwback too but that's a different blog post.

When I saw an "8-pack" at Target I had to snap it up and try it.

My take: Good. It didn't seem as dark as regular pepsi and it definitely wasn't as sweet which was good. I'd say pick up some Pepsi Throwback before it disappears in a month or two.
