Colombiana La Nuestra Kola Flavored Soda

Colombiana La Nuestra Kola Flavored Soda
It had been a long day for Mark. His boss had made him come in an hour early and then was on him all day to get this or that done in some ridiculously small amount of time. It was nonstop chaos and he didn't even have time to take a lunch. Take it from my boy Mark, Ritz crackers from the vending machine a meal does not make. By the time he got out of work, late of course, his stomach was screaming to be filled. On the walk to his car he ordered a pizza. That's right Mark ordered a large cheese pizza and he planned on eating it all himself, in one sitting. We're not talking about those 14” or 16” pizzas they have down south. This was a real deal 18” large cheese pizza that was greasy and doughy with just a hint of flour on the bottom of the crust. When he got to the pizza joint it wasn't quite ready so he checked out the little shop next door as he needed a drink to go along with his “za” and a two-liter of 7Up did not sound appealing. When he came across this can of Colombiana he knew he was in for a treat. You see Mark was a huge supporter of Cola and he loved trying the underdogs in the “Cola Wars.” What Mark didn't know was that cola and kola were not the same thing, and it was a realization that wouldn't hit him until he was two slices deep into his dinner. He cracked open the can and took a big sip, instantly realizing that it was not the soda he expected. Where he expected a heavy harsh cola flavor he was instead met by a slightly bubble gum flavored soda. It was then that the K in the flavor made sense to him. This was not cola at all, but instead it was kola champagne a drink popular in Puerto Rico. He had read the flavor described as a vanilla banana mixture, but to him it always tasted like bubble gum, and was always overly sweet and too much to handle. Colombiana's version wasn't so flavorful and he got where people had gotten the description before. This was a version of the soda that he could actually finish an entire bottle of. It didn't compliment his pizza as much as say an RC Cola would have, but it didn't ruin his meal either. He did learn his lesson though, and would never again confuse kola for the sticky sweet brown beverage that held a grip on his heart.
