What does the Tab Energy taste like? Does it taste like Tab?
Didn't Bobcat Goldthwait always drink Tab on stage? I wonder what he'd be like on this stuff...

I had some of the Sofia on our wedding day... I thought it was really cute and would be fun to have while getting ready. I didn't really like it either.

I wound up drinking this instead...

Yeah, but I will say in "Sofia's" defense, it comes with a tiny little straw stuck to the side of the can like a juice box. The straw is bendy AND extendable, so just the novilty was worth the $5. Once.

"The Sofia Blanc de Blancs bursts with rich pear, honeysuckle, and exotic passion fruit aromas. Crisp apple, melon, and juicy tangerine flavors fill the palate, with notes of bright lemon and honey evident on the refreshing, mouth-tingling finish."

Now, I'm not a wine expert, but my parents do get some good cases from The Wine Society. Sometimes the descriptions are a bit silly, but I can usually see what flavours they're getting at in the wine.

I am willing to say that drinking that wine is not like, as the description states, being raped by a fruitbowl.

Yeah. I thought so too. I've seen regular San Pellegrino, but not any of the flavoured stuff.

We get Orangina in 2 litre bottles. I heart Orangina. They also do a diet version too which actually pretty good.

You'll find there's a definite difference between UK and "european" products.

For example, iced tea has only just started being introduced on a large scale over here. When we went on holiday to France I used to get through about 8 litres a week.

RE: Tab Energy drink.

It was described in a taste test as similar to watermelon jolly ranchers, so I probably will pass since watermelon jolly ranchers are my least favorite flavor (gimme grape :D )
