Has anyone tried it yet?

The new Pepsi Twist...

I think it tastes awful! It's lemon flavored pepsi (according to the ingredients, there is no lemon or lemon juice added at all) It tastes more like pepsi with a twist of lemon flavored TheraFlu.

I understand why they thought this idea would work (I've added lemon to my coke many a times), but really Pepsi..why couldn't you just add real lemon...or better yet, leave well enough alone.
Uggh!

Girl, that is A HOT MESS That's the nastiest crap I've ever been dumb enough to try.

Girl, don't feel bad...I was just as dumb. I don't know what in the world I was thinking when I grabbed it off the shelf!

My students were just raving about it last period. I am not a lemon person especially not with a coke product.

It's weird but kids do seem to have taken a liking to this horrid concoction. One child described it to me as "Lemon iced tea with the extra kick to it". Go figure!

Heck one of my students loved that RED MOUNTAIN DEW that they invented earlier this year a lot. She said it tasted like gummy worms.

I say the stuff tastes like RED POP, IMO.

I think Pepsi twist tastes like flat Pepsi does, only with carbonation (I hope that makes sense). I really like the red Mountain Dew, but its not as good as the orginal!!!

The Pepsi twist is absolutely disgusting (although my roommate has taking a liking to it). However, I do love the red Mountain Dew.

The Green melon flavored one is NASTY (I think it's either Mello Yello, or Mountain Dew)!

One hyphenated word. Handi-wipe.

Aside: Hey Mocha, long time no see.

I haven't tried Pepsi Twist, but I've tried the Diet Coke with lemon and it's good stuff. Then again, I also remember Pepsi One, which had lemon. I wish they had Tab (yes, I drink Tab) with lemon.

I gave up on Pepsi years ago. I like Coke much better. Pepsi always has these gimmicky flavors that never seem to stay on the market for more than a month or two.

Does anyone else remember Pepsi Clear? It came out around the early 90s. What about Pepsi Kona? That nasty coffee flavored Pepsi.

I'd rather stick to plain old Coca Cola. No gimmicks, no nasty flavors. Just original Coca Cola. It's good enough for me.

I remember Pepsi Clear. Not a good thing, now that I look back.
I also remember Zima, which is alcoholic, and used to drink that stuff. Uggggh.
