lip smacking treats

To inaugurate this blog, we’ll start with a short little review of Fanta Strawberry. Saw this little item in the grocery store, and figured, “hey, why not.” I’m a fan of the orange and grape Fantas, but for some stupid reason I’ve just never tried the strawberry.

Fanta, as you may well know, is a product of Coca-Cola. Anyway, Fanta Strawberry is a “strawberry” flavored soda. I put strawberry in quotes, because while it tasted like strawberry, it was a tad too sweet for my tastes. I have no complaints other than it being too sweet. The flavor, when you could discern it properly was nearly dead on for strawberries. But, if it was a little more tart instead of sweet it would have been a drink to replace the Grape-flavored Fanta in my pantry! It is a very light, refreshing tasty drink with just the right amount of fizz and fruity flavor. Nearly spot on.

One of the pressing questions for a lot of you is whether or not there is caffiene. Does fanta strawberry soda have caffeine? Well, thankfully for those of you with concerns, it does not! Woo! A caffeine-free drink with taste! (Aside from Sprite)

For those of you wanting the official recommendation — I would suggest you give it a try. If it isn’t overly sweet for you, then it is definately a drink to consider when it is available. I believe this would make a perfect summer picnic drink!

Drink up! I will be drinking this again!
