Apples and Berrys Jones sodas go at it!!

Just popped open two cans of Jones soda, Green apple and Berry lemonade. First up the green apple, I was pleasantly surprised. First off the black and white picture with a green border was pretty to look at. and as I read I noticed the information to send in my own pictures to be put on the can.  The fizzy drink was a perfect thirst quencher. The crisp green apple tasted just like a jolly rancher, sweet with a small kick. Unlike most sodas this has a light carbonation that doesn’t leave you bloated and burpy. Even sipped slowly over an hour the last drink was just as crisp and flavorful as the first. About half way through the can I began to worry about the sugar and caffeine but with only 46g of sugar in th 16oz can there wasn’t much to worry about. not to mention it’s caffeine free. This naturally flavored drink is joining the list of my favorites.

Next up Berry lemonade. This can also sports a black and white picture this time surrounded by an aqua border. I pop this can open and again I am greeted by the light carbonation and a mouth full of flavor. This time it reminds me more of a berry cream until I swallow and I am left with a lime like after taste. There is a sugary sweetness there but mostly it just strikes me as tart and sour. 54g of sugar in this can and it still tastes tart? This soda was a disappointment to me because it tasted nothing like berry or lemonade really. Jones, you let me down on that one. Lets try again with a different flavor some time.
