Pepsi Raw

I was browsing the soft drinks isle last night and I came across a can of Pepsi Raw that I had never come across before. On closer inspection of the can I read that the soft drink contained only natural ingredients so I thought I would give it a shot and see how "natural" the cola tasted. The can I have cost me ninety five pence for 250ml of cola so the drink is not cheap by any means. The can is brown and advertises on the front of the can "natural born cola" and that the drink is not made form artificial colours, sweeteners, flavourings or preservatives. Other information includes nutritional information per 250ml can (98 calories, 24g ...  Read the complete review

My name is wigglylittleworm and I am a cola-oholic. It has been about two hours since my last fix. I know it's bad for me and that it makes me fat and rots my teeth but I simply adore it and my attempts to give it up always end in failure after a few days. My cola of choice is cherry cola followed closely by coca cola. I can tell the difference between coke and pepsi, pepsi is far sweeter and just not as nice but I will drink it if nothing else is available. When I saw Pepsi Raw I simply had to try it. Costing about 90p for a small 250ml can it is more expensive than the other colas out there. Pepsi raw claims it is different from the other colas out there as ...  Read the complete review

As a once not-so-proud owner of a 1980s Soda Stream, I thought I had tasted some pretty abysmal carbonated concoctions. That is until I bought a can of Pepsi Raw. Released to combat the growing trend amongst Britons to reject artificially flavoured products, Pepsi Raw is being marketed as a "healthy" cola which is said to be made from natural ingredients and contains no artificial preservatives, colours, flavourings or sweeteners. Traditional Pepsi contains fructose corn syrup, sugar, artificial colourings, phosphoric acid, caffeine, citric acid and natural flavours - In comparison, Pepsi Raw has only natural ingredients including apple ...  Read the complete review

*Ladies and gentlemen, I am a soft drink addict* Much to the chagrin of my dentist (and my front teeth), I love soft drinks. I'm a borderline caffeine addict (although I have managed to rein it in to no more than two caffeinated drinks a day). As well as this, I'm always willing to give the wackier inventions from the soft drink manufacturers a go. Hey - what's the worst that can happen? Trying to strike a balance between pleasing my dentist and pleasing myself, I picked up one of the tiny 150ml 'mixer' cans of this when I popped into Sainsbury's this afternoon. I'd fancied trying it for a while, but the reviews to date encouraged me to start off ...  Read the complete review

Ok now for those of you who have read a number of my food and drink reviews you will know that I'm not a fan of anything with artificial rubbish in. So when I saw this which stated that it contained no artificial colours, sweeteners, flavourings or preservatives I decided that I had to give it a go. Now this was probably a mistake as I'm more of a coke drinker than a Pepsi drinker. Anyway the first problem is that it is expensive, a 250ml can was 80p in my local tesco. Still not deterred I still bought a can. On opening the can there was no real sound of the pressure being released. I soon found out this was because this 'cola' goes flat within a couple of ...  Read the complete review
