Mountain Dew Revolution – From F to A in 5 Minutes

Posted by Lynnster on July 26, 2008

I was at the store late last night and needing a cold drink, and there was no orange soda in the refrigerated soda case, so I was looking around and noticed something I had never seen or heard of – the new Mountain Dew Revolution, with wild berry flavor and ginseng.  It’s blue, which is usually a tipoff that it’s either really bad or really good.

So I get home and take a swig and immediately hated it.  Seriously was grading it a big fat F, not even a D.  It tasted like carbonated cough syrup.  But I didn’t have anything else cold to drink in the house, so I was going to finish it anyway.

Then a funny thing happened about 1/4th the way into the bottle.  Suddenly, it started tasting good.

I don’t know.  It would certainly never be a favorite, but it’s all right (after the initial couple of swigs anyway).  It’s sort of similar to some of those energy drinks I don’t really like all that much but there’s something about them that tastes both good and not so good.

So if you haven’t tried it and want to give it a shot, be forewarned, but stick with it past two or three drinks.  The carbonated cough syrup effect kind of goes away.

PS: New music blog here.  (LOL, yes, I’m going to keep repeating that for at least a week or two.)
