Its ok! Better than the lime one, not as good as cherry or raspberry. Never had the strawberry one.

Strawberry flavour Max was the one that exploded inside my fridge during that cold snap last year , was about 4 cans and the stuff went everywhere!! 

I wasn’t a fan , but I was tasting it alongside 5 other flavours so it probably influenced my view on it

in and all over my fridge :) 

I was running some testing for a client on new Pepsimax  flavours , so had about 6 different flavour variations we had to get people to try  , only one of the 6 has made it to market so far (Mango)

Are you allowed to say which ones? Pineapple Mint? Mint Lime?

Only soft drink I consume is Cheerwine. Probably never heard of it in the UK, but it is quite good. Used to really pound some Mountain Dew but when I drink it now, just feel really bad afterwards.

Seems to be enjoying a bit of a resurgence lately. Saw it had caffeine in it yesterday. Not sure it's made much of an impression on me in the past, but I need to try again.

I had coke orange in Bruges a few years back , wasn’t a fan

if you’re bored at home try apple juice in Pepsi Max , I reckon it’s a winner

The worst one is vanilla coke. Absolutely horrific

Sold as standard here, mezo mix for CC and schwip schwap for pepsi, not sure why they have the name changes

Its ok

Did try blueberry diet coke in the states that's probably the most out there I've seen, like most things blueberry flavour it didn't taste of much

I’m testing a new formula of Schwip Schwap in Germany next month , I thought someone was winding me up with that name at first :)

Its OK, have to be in the mood for it

What they changing?

Dunno tbh , I’d imagine sugar content but there could be a slight flavour tweak to go with it

If its the one in the new bottle design then yeah it's pretty good, definitely better, less overly carbonated with more flavour

Should add it's maybe maybe better than mezo mix but for me personally lemon pepsi max is way out ahead of it

Ain't that the truth, I am properly addicted, drank a 2l bottle of vanilla coke at work yesterday, on a good day ill have at leat 1l, I've come off it a few times in January's past and it's tough going

But for pushing on 10 years now I've been coke zero / Pepsi max, I'll only ever drink no sugar, I won't touch full fat coke*, I'll "try" and lose weight all the time while eating chocolate, crisps and haribo but full fat coke would be the end of me, I tend to drink flavoured coke anyway so I can't tell the difference, cherry Pepsi max is my weapon of choice, there is no cherry Pepsi as a comparison so it's lost 

* I don't mess about in bars when it's a mixer, if I'm shouting up a rum and coke it's at the end of a night with several beers and just before getting a kebab, the fat of the coke is the least of my worries 

Moved to this thread...

My fridge currently contains cans of Pepsi Max, Pepsi Max Cherry, Pepsi Max Lime, Pespi Max Mango and Pepsi Max caffeine free (picked up by mistake!). 

I used to have Coke Zero, but they pissed me off when they moved to cardboard packaging (in the eight pack) which is really flimsy and not fit for purpose.

I've tried the caffeine free coke, that does just have a slight tweak in the flavour that zero doesn't have, I'm never convinced by it 

I'm buying 6 x 1.5l bottles at a time here to reduce costs, the shit thing is what I can't do is buy cans, you can't even buy 6 pack cans here let alone 24 packs, this time last year as I left the UK I was buying multipacks and limiting myself to 1 can a day, they don't exist here so I can't

Can say one thing as a pretty recent development for me - Dr pepper is piss, I've been trying their vanilla and cherry flavours and I've gone right off it, it's terrible and it's like an import special that's more expensive
