Gingerbread Soda

This bottle is another product of Orca Beverages. Anyone interested in finding some strange flavors of soda will be familiar with their name. This is second gingerbread flavored soda to be featured here. I sampled a different brand last year for Christmas. 

The aroma coming from this bottle is very creamy. It smells like fresh icing for a cinnamon roll, very pleasant and sweet. The taste itself has a tinge of cinnamon and ginger... which is what one should expect from a gingerbread flavor. However there is a heavy cream flavor. It's a very sugary sweet drink as well, almost syrup-like. While Buddy the Elf would probably love this, I find it almost too sweet. I can't image not being sick to my stomach unless I sipped it slowly over several hours... that kind of sweet. While an interesting novelty beverage, I'd love to see someone do this right with a good blend of ginger and cinnamon. But happy holidays and thanks for the effort.

Honestly, I can't quite recall where I found this. I think it was World Market.

They do have it at World Market. I think it 's delicious!!! Especially the gingerbread Christmas cocktail!! One shot of Jack Dainels Gentleman Jack Whiskey ..fill the rest with the Gingerbread soda.....drizzle the rim with a little Carmel icecream syrup....OMG !!! Sooooo good! In fact I am trying to find the g soda to stock up since it out until next Christmas !! It's unavailable online and my local World Market is out!! Maybe that is better .....then it could be a special treat to look forward to at Christmas time !! 🎄
