In Highschool, I took Nehi Blue soda and poured it into an empty, cleaned out windex bottle. Then
I sprayed it in my mouth and everyone thought I was crazy. tia

Surge is back.

"Coca-Cola has a little surprise for '90s nostalgics: Surge soda, the company's equivalent to Mountain Dew, is back. The global soda giant began selling the "fully loaded citrus soda" on Monday, more than 12 years since the brand was discontinued."

What was the retail price on 12 pack of this? I remember it being insanely cheap.

Like cola (a 7up-produced cola from 1982). My family loved this stuff, but it wasn't sold for very long.

Rocky Top Cherry Lemon Lime was the only soda I ever sought out. It was hard to find, but the closest thing you could get to a Sonic cherry limeade from a can.

What about all of the "in network"/HMO Dr Pepper knockoffs?

Yep, I mentioned Jolt Cola on the sponsor all nighter thread. Twice the sugar, and twice the caffeine!

All the sugar and twice the caffeine was the slogan.

Jolt cola was controversial at the time. People were mad about it.

Jolt sponsored something at the MSC when I was a sophomore (1991-92). I tried my first and only Jolt that night. Couldn't get through the can.

Yeah, I remember getting some for the guys in the dorm. One fool even mixed it 50/50 with Beam and still couldn't finish it

I loved Red Rattler! Always bought whatever I could find around B/CS before heading to DFW. Mainly the tiny Exxon in Reagan that looked like it might fall over while inside it.

I don't ever recall seeing it once you got much north of San Antonio. I remember liking it better than Big Red.

The classic 90's one-week fad cola. "Hey, research says these Gen X'ers are cynical towards corporate branding. Let's build a brand around that!"
