Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

Ok, its Friday night and I'm bored. I just picked up a bottle of Pepsi-Cola Holiday Spice and I think it's pretty good stuff. I'm just wondering what everyone else thinks.

The flavor is pretty hard to explain....it's not peppermint, more like cinnamon and a few other spices.

Can't be any worse than that lemon Pepsi junk.

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

Oh! I saw that at the grocery store tonight, but ddin't really stop to look at it.

Maybe I'll go back tonight and buy some ...

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

It tastes like Pepsi, with a aftertaste of nutmeg. Really nasty, if you ask me.

And, if you shake it, it looks like tomato juice.

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

I give Pepsi Holiday Spice a thumbs up :)

Did anyone try Mountain Dew 'Pitch Black'? It came out around Halloween. Good stuff too.

It was good, but not as good as the Baja Blast (Blue) Dew made exclusively for Taco Bell.

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

I really don't like Baja Blast... it tastes like the ocean, only carbonated and colored bright blue.
Pitch Black is tasty though. ^.^

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

I tried it last night. Tasted like regular Pepsi to me. :shrug:

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

Baja Blast was just like a carbonated Powerade or something similar.

As for that new Holiday Spice Pepsi, it just tastes like flat Pepsi.
It does have a slight hint of a cinnamon scent when you burp though. :)

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

I think that stuff looks scary.

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

the baja blast rocks in my opinion

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

My friends roommate had some and said it was all right. Baja Blast is an acquired taste.

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

I tried some of the Holiday Spice Pepsi, and I didn't think it tasted much different. It had a bit of a cinnamon aftertaste, but that was all. It's also rather red, if you look at it in the light.

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

Its kind of funny...

at the store i work at...the entire end display of pepsi spice was full...not one bottle had been sold so far :eek: great advertising pepsi :rolleyes:

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

I bought a bottle the other day, and threw it away after a few sips. The only big difference between Holisday Spice and regular Pepsi I noticed, was that HS had a *horrible* after-taste.

Not Pepsi's best .. then again, I'm more of a Coca-Cola girl, myself. :p

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

I just tried Holiday Spice yesterday, and I can't find any difference between this and regular Pepsi. :confused:

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

(The real ingredent for Pepsi Holiday Spice.)



I strongly dislike it...

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

I tried it last night and didn't even realize it was supposed to be flavored until I looked at the can more closely...
It really doesn't taste any different from regular Pepsi.
But as a result the soda is pink. That's kinda creepy.

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

Rather than start a new thread for another Pepsi related topic, I'll just add to this one.

Commercial

Apparently, new Pepsi 2 liter bottles have a new package design in store for us that allows it to be held in one hand.

Now some questions may be: How does it taste compared to Pepsi coming out of an original bottle? Will all new bottle have this design? (Remember when a 2 liter had a round cap on the bottom instead of feet?)

But, if they squeezed the sides in to make it narrower and more ergonomic thus making the cross section of the bottle smaller in that area and potentially making the bottle taller to fit the same amount of liquid into the bottle then the real important question is, will it still fit in my fridge? :ahh:

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

Elgin, the link you gave is broken, now.

But, in regards to the new bottles, it would make it easier to chug a 2-liter of Mountain Dew late at night the week before ship :p

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

Link still works for me.. idk. Try it again?

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

What does it consist of? whats in it? i saw it at target the other day when shopping with my mom.

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

I want to know too! Is it worth me trying? Has Dave called it pimp?

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

Ditto. Nice to know I'm not crazy... I think...

Well, okay, there is a very subtle difference that I can notice, but that's only when I'm trying to tell the difference. If I'm drinking it regularly (i.e., drinking it for the sake of enjoyment), there's no difference whatsoever.

Still not crazy... I think...

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

I personally don't like Pepsi either. I'm more of a Coca-Cola person. Heck, I'm a root beer person than everything else. And what's with the Holiday Spice, suppost to be something for the holidays? Might as well have Code Red. :D

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

Code Red and Regular Mt. Dew for Christmas.
Pitch Black and Live Wire for Halloween
Baja Blast for Easter.

The possibilities are endless....

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

Yet more proof that FIRST is a gold mine in the "cafinated beverages" business. :p

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

I finally got to try Holiday Spice the other day. I haven't seen it in the stores by me yet but it was on the "coach roach" that comes at work everyday.
I liked it for the simple fact it isn't too overpowering with the cinnamon and you can still taste the cola.
Bottom line, it's something I wouldn't drink everyday but it isn't bad to have now and then.

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

I have finally tried it! It kind of tasted the same as regular Pepsi at first, but then I drank more of it and really enjoyed it. =) It has that hint of cinnamon but not much I think...Just enough. It's greeeeat. =D I'll have to go out and get some for myself..xD

Re: Pepsi-Cola "Holiday Spice"
 

This guy is drinking noting but Pepsi Holiday Spice for 45 days (similar to the movie Super-Size Me, in which a man ate nothing but McDonald's food with frightening effects). He's keeping a blog to document the impact it is having on his body. Snip: "I instantly started sneezing, which made me $@#$@#$@#$@# my pants and on top of the horror I got another bloody nose. Luckily no one was home when this happened."
