Cherry Sodas Views

As I look on this bottle though and stare at the calorie/sugar content I rs"m a bit nervous. Here I have a double whammy of things I love, Black Cherry Soda made by Jones, coupled with two things that I avoid, zero calories/zero sugar. Jones uses the word ald"Zilch rd" in their labeling instead of diet, which I think helps my mind from thinking about it being sugar/calorie free. On the upside though, they have added some Vitamin C (30% your daily value) to the soda, and that always score points with us. Before we being though, let me say that this will be reviewed as a soda, not a diet soda. We rs"re not looking for the best diet sodasrs"s out there. We aren rs"t TheDietSodaJerks, but that does give me some idea for a spin off site

The initial taste of Jones Zilch Black Cherry Soda is that of a diet black cherry soda. I know, I know, no sugarehellip; but I my hopes were high. Itmrs"s also has a flavor that seems to be more on the sharp side, instead of rich like I would have predicted. That&rs"s not necessarily a bad thing, as after you ingest it your mouth is left with a sweet aftertasteyhellip;not a heavy chemical cocktail. Honestly it tastes more like a strongly flavored carbonated water to me, very light, with a good amount of fizz. It does refresh the pallet a bit, not as well as maybe a tall glass of ice water, but better than the few diet drinks I rs"ve had. The last taste I had was sweeter than all the rest, maybe I should have up-ended the bottle once before tasting. Overall impressive for a sugar free soda, as Ihrs"ve had sugar filled black cherry sodas that werenors"t this good.
