Has anyone else tried the new Pepsi Holiday Spice
It should be called Holiday Bland. I was expecting cloves and cinnamon, maybe nutmeg.
It has a small hint of cinnamon, but very little.

Now I will admit I am a Coke drinker but this Holiday Spice has less flavor then regular Pepsi, which I do drink on occasion when that is my only choice.

2. I tried it Thanksgiving. It tastes like...regular Pepsi.
I honestly didn't notice a difference. This is one gigantic ripoff.

5. Exactly what I thought.
Really bland, nothing to go out of one's way for.

I thought I caught a slight "tart" flavor too, like cranberry, but then it was gone.

I won't be buying it again.

6. I tried it.
It's not bad - but I don't drink regular pop as a rule (just some diet pop now and then), so I didn't drink much of it.

I didn't even realize it's RED until someone pointed it out to me on another bulletin board.

too weird. 3 of us liked it right away (I thought it was unique and refreshing) and 2 slowly grew to like it.

10. That's funny....
Because I was at a party and 2 of us liked it, 3 of us hated it, 5 of us decided it was the work of the devil and burned it, 4 of us thought it was a gift from god and cannonized it, 3 thought it was God, 4 thought it was sign and started a whole new religion based on it, 3 shunned it for being different, 1 of us stared at the bottle for an hour, and 51% of America elected it president.


Sorry, just having some fun today. :hi:

8. I bought it without realizing it was different
I thought it was just holiday packaging. It's kind of gross IMO.

9. Don't like it
Its spice is somehow unpleasant, and I'm a guy who can eat the spiciest Mexican or Vietnamese food without a problem.
