Red Ribbon Pennsylvania Punch

I opened this with the boys last night:

Brand: Red Ribbon Pennsylvania Punch.

Origin: Natrona, PA (duh).

Purchase Place: Blue Sun Soda, Spring Lake Park, MN.

Sweetener: Sugar.

Review: This was non-carbonated, but I didn't realize that until after the first sip. (Even though it says it right on the label above "Pennsylvania Punch"). It was quite good! It was very sweetly grape flavored, and it was a pretty deep flavor. My wife even liked it when I thought it could be too sweet for her. My boys loved it. A unique and delicious soda!

Score: 9 out of 10.

Red Ribbon Home Brewed Style Root Beer

This is my final soda from my classroom this semester - I cracked into this as I was doing some final grading Sunday afternoon:

Brand: Red Ribbon Home Brewed Style Root Beer.

Origin: Natrona, PA.

Purchase Place: Blue Sun Soda, Spring Lake Park, MN.

Sweetener: Cane Sugar.

Review: This had a pretty deep, rich, classic flavor, and it was pretty smooth. But it had a decently strong beer-like aftertaste. I'm not a fan of beer, so I didn't care for that. If you LIKE beer (as most human males do), then try this, but I wasn't a huge fan, so I ranked it a bit lower than average.

Score: 4 out of 10.
