Limonitz - Organic Ginger Sparkling Lemonade

Strong ginger smell

Glorious kick of ginger throughout - from beginning to end and then CONTINUES AFTER

Lemonade is there to carry the ginger and also really makes it refreshing

Has a lemon tarty taste

More on the refreshing side than warm and satisfying, but still a nice middle

12NtM Sparkling Beverage - Rouge (Pomegranate & Black Currant)

Nice frosted glass bottle with a metal screwtop cap

35% juice from concentrate

Light, not fruity, almost wine-like smell

Not overly sweetened, but flavorful

Pleasantly blended; no flavors stand out too much (pomegranate at forefront)

Light-medium carbonation

Fresh, no aftertaste

Shandy by Fentiman's

FALAWFULLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Lemony beer (I just don't like beer) 

Cheerwine soda

Smells like "black cherry" soda flavor

Very carbonated, a lot of bubbles float to roof of mouth

Dark red color

Has some form of flavor, but not the usual cherry. Maybe a little like root beer?

Slight cherry aftertaste

Sweet, barely tart

Ikea's Dryck Nypon Rosehip Drink

Smells grassy/leafy

Light flavor with no lingering aftertaste

Thicker texture

IBC Cream Soda

Screw top cap, glass bottle

Smells of a little vanilla and root beer float, but sweeter

Sweet flavor hits first in the front, then a little tart in the back

Has a little of that numbing feeling of root beers

Compared to root beer floats (made with A&W Root Beer and Turkey Hill Homemade Vanilla ice cream), has more hard root beer flavor, and is also sweeter

Lime Ricky Soda by The Pop Shoppe

Strong artificial smell, reminiscent of Mountain Dew and a little noxious

Bright green color

Slight fake lime aftertaste, but doesn't linger and isn't bad

Light not natural flavor, can't really say what it is supposed to be

Not overly sweet

Jones New York Pear Tree Soda

Special Holiday Edition!!

A new candy store opened up in my hometown. It sells more sodas than candy though. I was excited to see this there, also with Gingerbread and other flavors.

Not too fizzy

Smells like someone tried very hard to make an artificial "natural pear" smell, and succeeded (smells better than a real pear)

No sour taste actually, like a good sweet asian pear

Flavor is more like a barlett? pear though

Dr. Brown's Cel-Ray Celery Soda

Smells like celery smoothie

Short tart flavor, no distinguishable taste in the beginning

Celery smell in the aftertaste

California Juice Company's Sparkling Georgia Peach Juice (Only sold by Cost Plus World Market)

100% Juice in a glass bottle with a screwtop

Smells like peach candy (a little fruity, but artificial and sweet) or perfume

Peach colored (an orange-ish pink) and carbonated

Tart

Artificial peach flavor comes in the first moment, mostly from the smell

Sioux City Sarsaparilla "The Granddaddy of All Root Beers"

Screwtop cap on brown bottle with a presumably (and hopefully) brown liquid

All sweet with a very miniscule tart aftertaste

Smells like Bottle Caps Root Beer flavor

"Foamy" and soft bubbles

No artificial aftertaste

Ingredients: Purified carbonated water, Pure cane sugar, caramel color, etc etc

Tomomasu Mango Drink (apparently also comes in watermelon, passion fruit, and peach)

Carbonated

Light, natural mango flavor

Liquid is a clear color 

Also pretty expensive for such a small amount ($2.50 for the bottle, which is about 6 in)

Glass bottle with a metal screw-on cap

The label can be taken off

Suntory Bikkle (400mg)

Comes in a glass bottle shaped like Yakult

I HAVE HIGH HOPES FOR YOU GIANT YAKULT

Cap is some strange metal/plastic contraption, not reusable (Lift and pull up)

Liquid is non-carbonated, opaque, and a creamy color

Slightly thicker than water

Like Yakult, but NOT TART

Smells a little like oranges and cream, mostly the cream bit

8.5/10 for the bottle, minus points for the non-reusability, but the shape is SO CUTE and the logo is a little retro

9/10 for the drink, expected to be a little more tart, BUT IT'S STILL GOOD

Suntory Gokuri Grapefruit

Uncarbonated 

Smells like a cut grapefruit

Contains bits of grapefruit fiber and is noticeably thicker than water

Liquid is translucent and probably yellowy (didn't dump out sorry)

Slightly bitter like grapefruit

Not as watery as Gokuri Peach

Closeable screwtop cap

Bottle is the same as Gokuri Peach (thin) 

Color is dark blue with striated stripes  

7.5/10 for the drink. Real grapefruit taste, but the thickness is pretty strange to me
