worst beverage
« on: July 21, 2008, 11:10:48 AM »


The taste of this stuff will haunt me to the end of my days.

Calorie burner? More like stomach lining and enamel dissolver. 


Come on, Nestea.

Vault is the worst.

I love the yellow-green soft drinks.  Several (two?) local restaurants I frequent have replaced delicious Mello Yello with vomitous Vault.

I fill out angry comment cards every time I am there, but so far no luck.

Taco Bell also got rid of Code Red.  WTF is that?

I like the other flavored San Pellegrino drinks I've had (Limonata and Aranciata), but this one is just nasty. I've been told it's an acquired taste, but I couldn't get past the initial burst of gross. I ended up throwing away most of the 4-pack.
I'll probably go into the wee hours.

I went to the Kentucky Derby this year and had a Mint Julep.  It consisted of a terrible prefab mix and a dirty sprig of mint. I imagine it was similar to drinking dirty toilet water, which was exactly what it looked like.

I just discovered that S. Pellegrino had flavored stuff this past week, but I didn't spring for the 4 pack of glass bottles because they have 180 calories a can - I might as well just sit back with a Mountain Dew.

In fact, that sounds like a good idea.

what is Chinotto?  I kind of like the stuff, but I have to be in the right mood to drink it.
Breakfast- I'm havin' a time
Wheelies- I'm havin' a time
Headlocks- I'm havin' a time
Drunk Tank- not so much a time
George St.- I'm havin' a time
Brenda- I'm havin' a time
Bingo- I'm havin' a time
House Arrest- I'm still havin' a time

I find most types of soda (grapefruit excepted) pretty gross, but blueberry coffee wins the award for worst beverage. I think it was at a Bruegger's Bagels- they've had different types of flavored coffee since and I haven't tried any of them.

Sorry, that's an incorrect answer. Please go backstage to receive your consolation prize...  ;D


Bloody Marys are easily the worst drink ever. For non-alcoholic I'd go tea or black coffee. I need to add tons of sugar and cream to coffee to even get a sip down.

I think Scotch is one of those things you have to reprogram your brain to like. I actually used to almost like it. But I stopped drinking right before I started law school (no, I didn't have a "problem" which is annoyingly what people always assume) and now the smell of all alcohol, even beer, is just really unappealing to me, like cleaning fluid. Red wine and brown liquors are definitely the worst.

I love grapefruit juice and black coffee which I guess a lot of others don't like. But my vote is for shelf stable regular milk. Shelf stable chocolate or stawberry is tolerable. But regular tastes like plastic and corpses.

EWWWWWWWWW!!!!

I'd add Jagermeister to the list. Red Bull too. I can't believe they mix those two in a drink. It must taste like licorice cough syrup.

Zima Gold and Orbitz

Zima Gold, briefly produced in 1996, maybe? I cannot find a pic, but trust me, this happened.

It was not sweet, and looked like urine. Three friends of mine bought some on a lark.
Our Reviews:
Me: glarf-ecchh! Um, it tastes like you soaked a moldy library book in boiling water, added alcohol and carbonated it.

Jim: eeehhhhhwww! hmmmm. That's just nothing but wino-piss

Lou: oooohhhhhgggg! Hey, you know when people get dialysis? I guess I know what the do with all the crap they take out of their blood now...

RUNNER UP:


candy chunks suspended in a sprite-ish flavored colloidal suspension, a consistency who's closest equivalent would be to um.. dog saliva?

ugggghhhh

Whatcha eatin' there, some Doritos?
-crunch- uh-hu. -crunchcrunch-
That's great radio. Get off my phone.

It tastes exactly like a red sweet tart. It's gross.
