When you promise cream soda, you better deliver on some cream soda. Like root beer it is a special flavor, that when you want it, you're body seems to think it needs it to survive. You will feel weird and jittery until your need is satiated. Sadly this bottle of Zuberfizz will leave you with the shakes, as it doesn't taste like cream soda at all. It's a strange thing because the other two cream sodas we've had from this company were quite nice, but the base of this just tastes like generic sweetened soda water.

Do you want to talk about Key Lime? Well this soda has you covered there. It tastes like real key lime, without being overly, intensely sweet. If this were labeled a key lime soda with no mention of cream soda I would think that it was great, but man were my expectations not met. Like Sprecher, it also has that strange flavor that accompanies soda that has been fire brewed in a kettle. It's not unpleasant, but it something that takes a little acclimation.

Zuberfizz, you nailed it with the key lime, but you failed on the cream soda part of the exam. I think that means you have to go to summer school. Give Mark Harmon my love.

Before I knew there was a “proper” way to cut up a mango I would just go into them like a savage. By the end of my feasting I would have sticky juice dripping from my face and hands, and I would have strings of mango pulp stuck in my teeth. I looked like a wolf that had just torn apart its prey, except instead of blood and gore I had juice and pulp. The fruit turns me into a wild thing. Now that I know there is a way to cut it to make it easier and cleaner, I feel like I have finally been domesticated and in turn sophisticated. I am now a grown ass man.

This juice starts off very similar to what my savagery tasted like. Then it suddenly takes a weird direction. You can differentiate the added sugar from the natural kind. It also has a weird aftertaste that I can't place. It certainly doesn't taste like it should be a part of any sort of fruit. I don't get it and I don't appreciate its presence. I just want pure mango juice, and I knew this wasn't that, but I hoped it would be closer than it turned out to be.

This has been sitting in my fridge for nearly two months. The reason being that the Ice Cream Soda flavor of Pakola was one of the worst fluids I have ever ingested. I thought someone had switched out my soda with the contents of their grandmothers perfume sprayer. Luckily this is not just passable, but it's actually decent. It reminds me a lot of the Canadian soda C-Plus. It's comparable to a less harsh Orange Crush. It doesn't have that weird thickness of an aftertaste. One thing that does concern me is that sugar is the first thing listed under ingredients. I can only assume in Pakistan that the ingredients aren't listed in the order of quantity, as it's not a semisolid.

Do you know what ice cream soda shouldn't taste like? Getting sprayed in the mouth with a nursing home's collective perfumes.

Completely undrinkable.
