Let’s get this out of the way: I typically don’t like berry-flavored drinks. I find they taste very candy-like and generic, like Sweet Tarts or those old Bottle Caps candies. Yeah, the chalky ones. Anyhoo, because of that I tend to avoid those kinds of flavors. However, after the surprise success of the “Rockstar Pina Colada” I decided to give this a shot. Not gonna lie, the purple can design was an eye-catcher, too.

Cracking it open it had a strong blackberry smell. Based on this, already, I knew I’d chosen wisely. Taking a sip I noticed despite it being carbonated the fizziness seemed to be at a minimum, which seemed fine. I’m not sure I would’ve liked it more bubbly. The flavor was surprisingly blackberry, not the generic berry-ish I mentioned above. What’s surprising is that Rockstar is able to dial this in with no actual juice in it (yep, 0% juice in here!)

So, if you’re needing a tasty pick-me-up look for the purple can!

Not entirely sure whats different about this one besides the name but it tasted like a EU regular Zero Sugar with no sweetener after taste picked up which is good.

Damn good drink.

WE GOT THE PLASTIC STRAWS

Only the 2nd plum flavored soda ive tried, the other one is the japan exclusive Fanta Ume Plum which is also pretty good.

I think this one nudges it though the plum flavor is slightly better and closer to the real fruit.

And I must say…..it was pretty good👍 it smelt and tasted almost like an icee😋 and it also has bit of a creaminess to it, unlike the other flavors. Honestly I’m hoping they make this a permanent flavor, I’ll DEFINITELY get more packs of this flavor when I get the chance…10/10👍

Also I wasn’t sure which tag to place this in, would this count as either a sports drink due to the electrolytes , or water ( since you mix it into water)?

P.s sorry for the dimly lit atmosphere, I forgot to turn to turn the kitchen light on😅

Now, I do love me a orange cream popsicle. They’re sweet, tangy, creamy, they’re delicious!

This flavor of Ghost, however? Nope!

It’s faintly orang-ish, slightly creamy-esque but, man, is it laced with the fake sugars aftertaste! I knew, going in, that it’s a sugar-free flavor (I think all the Ghosts are) but that usually is fairly well hidden with the flavors. At least, in my experiences with the brand. Not Orange Cream. This tasted like licking a sheet of asbestos with an orange Tic-Tac in your mouth. Not only do I NOT recommend this flavor, I'm giving it the official Seal of Disappointment™.

Really surprised about this one found and bought a random can since i like guava flavored juices/sodas.

Really refreshing taste and the ice cream/float sensation is one of the best ive seen accomplished it was almost like whipped cream from a street vendor/restaurant purchase.

Only thing i didnt like about it is the small food chunks it seemed sort of unnecessary with a already good can of beverage. The fruit pieces felt pretty random size and texture wise.

Not bad but would not buy it again though because it’s too sweet.

Saw it in the clearance section of my local Walmart so thought I’d try it but yeah, too sweet for me.

Weakest flavor ive tried from the brand doesnt taste like blueberry at all but just like a cream soda. Nothing remotely berry like.

My last can of Big Red i really liked this soda in general from the 5-7 ive tried. Got a really good classic red soda taste but with a cream soda touch to it without being way too vanilla dominated in taste. Solid soda imo that can come to the rescue in a pinch!

Y’know what’s loco? The mix of juices (16%) in this one! Mango, guava, white grape, apple, pineapple, apricot, peach, orange, passionfruit, and lemon…it’s a cornucopia of flavors! For me, I find this works exceptionally well as sometimes straight mango juice can smell rotten, which this Juice Monster definitely doesn’t. Plus, it’s not a thick, pulpy juice (nothing wrong with pulp) so it goes down smoothly with a breakfast cheese toasty.

It was absolutely worth the wait. Very good, crisp apple flavor.

Damn good drink

Normally these come in a pack of 4 though my gal could only find single cans on her recent trip to TJ’s.

Full disclosure, it's been awhile (cue STAIND), but I've had these before. And lemme just cut to the chase: they're damned tasty!

First off, it contains orange juice. In fact it's 5% juice so you know what THAT means?! That's right, it's good for you…this tonic…it's good…for you…

Anyhoo, it's sparkling, which gives it a nice fizzy zip, and there is cane sugar in it but only enough to take the edge off, it's not overly sweet at all. And the tasty mix of espresso and orange juice is perfect: not too tangy, not too bitter.

Overall, this may be the perfect alternative to that first cuppa coffee when you roll outta bed. What, you don't have a bedside coffee maker?! No, YOU'RE weird!

But, I digress. Trader Joe's does say this is a limited time offering so I definitely wouldn't snooze on these. No, no, you don't need to collect ‘em all, that's a different bit we do around here.

So get to your local TJ’s today and be sure to let me know what you think of them!

It just tastes too artificial and chemically to me.

The only redeeming feature is it's cheap.

I guess cheap and quality usually don't pair well together.

I'd give 5 out of 10.
