With this episode comes a brand new feature to Soda Tasting: soda mixing! This is where I mix two or more different sodas to create something brand new. Today we’re mixing Coca-Cola and Wawa Watermelon to create Watermelon Coke. I’d love to know what you think about this show concept. Would you like me to do more of them? What are your favorite mixes? Please let me know in the comments. Here is the nutritional information for each of the […]
I couldn’t find Canada Dry Vanilla Cream on the company’s website or even on the Dr Pepper Snapple Group website (though I did manage to find it on a separate product facts site run by Dr Pepper Snapple Group), so I’m not sure how common it is. But, I was intrigued by a vanilla infused ginger ale and wanted to give it a try. Have you tried Canada Dry Vanilla Cream? Please let me know in the comments. Thank you […]
Bubble Up, a lemon-lime soda, was introduced in 1919. The company website says that the beverage was produced ten years prior to the release of popular competitor 7-Up. Have you had Bubble Up? Please let me know in the comments. Thank you for watching.
On episode #15 of Soda Tasting, we tried something new: a blind tasting. The concept is simple: I taste a bunch of sodas without knowing which is which. I talk about my favorites and try to guess the brands. In a way, I’m setting myself up to look silly. But, it is fun. That episode is currently the most viewed episode of the show so far. Thanks to the positive response and requests for more, I’ve decided to continue doing […]

Improv. We record videos together as Patrick and […]
Meyer Lemon Soda is technically a store brand as it was released by The Fresh Market, a grocery store chain. But, it is a limited edition and is a straight lemon soda. Not lemonade, not lemon added to something else. Just lemon. I am joined on today’s episode by Jonathan Bailey of Plagiarism Today and Garbage Horror and my brother, Sean O’Keefe, a film student at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, who is a member of F.B.I.

Blenheim Ginger Ale originates from the southern United States – Blenheim, South Carolina, to be specific. It comes in three varieties: #5 Not as Hot – Gold Cap, #9 Diet – White Cap and Old #3 Hot – Red Cap, which is what we’re tasting today. The company’s website labels it their “boldest flavor,” saying that it “tantalizes and tingles the taste buds, and goes down as smoothly as a firecracker exploding in your throat.” I am joined on today’s […]
With ingredients like cane sugar, clove bud oil, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, cassia oil, orange and lemon oils and lime juice, Virgil’s Real Cola box calls it a “cola for cola connoisseurs.” What is preferred form factor for soda? Cans? Plastic? Glass? Please let me know in the comments. Thank you for watching.
