Hemani Honey Drink With Basil Seeds

Appearance

This label isn't pretty bleh. But the drink itself is so cool to look at. The drink is a light amber color and the basil seeds are suspended in the liquid and covered with some mucusy substance. So the seeds look a lot like bacterial in a slide. Veeery cool

Appearance Score

6/10

Taste

This is pretty gross, honestly. The smell is sickly sweet and it tastes like stale bubblegum. The seeds provide an interesting texture but the drink is sticky and syrupy and not pleasant. Over all, I would not drink it again. Or finish the bottle

3/10

Cicero Beverage Co Salted Caramel Root Beer

Cicero is an interesting brand of soda from Chicago that has flavors like caramel apple and chocolate covered bacon. Unlike Larry's fixins sodas they're actually pretty good. 

Appearance

I like the soda but I'm not a big fan of the label. It feels like a chili can label.

3/10

Taste

This is a lovely root beer. Its sweet and creamy. The carbonation is not to intense. The Salted Caramel flavor is delicious, if it tastes like an syrupy flavor shot. Have this in vanilla soft serve and its amazing. 

Taste

8/10 Delicious. Highly Recommend.  

Sipp Mojo Berry

I took my friend Jesus to my favorite soda store today and introduced him to the world of soda. If was quite exciting. In exchange for the introduction he got himself a salted caramel root beer and me this soda, a blackberry, mint and lime soda.

Appearance

This is a bottle that is trying to be simple and classy. Very plain simple graphic design. I understand they're trying to promote the organic nature but I think it distracts from the design. 

Appearance Score

5/10 I'm neutral about it

Taste

This is pretty good. Usually I'm pretty biased against berry sodas as I feel they taste too much like cough syrup. This one is on though. The mint and lime balance the berry well. Its not too syrupy sweet and it doesn't stick around in your mouth unwanted. Its refreshing. It also has a very interesting carbonation. The carbonation is very light and dainty. The bubbles are tiny and they fill your mouth but leave quickly

Taste Score

7/10 pretty ok
