AJ Stephan's was started in the late '80's by Jeff Rose. The water used in these soda's comes from a New England artesian well and mixed with cane sugar. He supposedly has some 200 family soda recipes on hand but only bottles a fraction of that as there are currently 9 different flavors bottled. I found it very interesting to learn that one of Jeff's daughters majored in chemistry at MIT and assisted in some of the formulations of the drinks.
Aside from the simple labels this bottle sticks out due to the contrast of the red soda and the lime green label. It has a sugary-sweet raspberry aroma. The raspberry flavor is really what you taste the most with this, with just a pinch of lime that really compliments the fruit taste well. Lightly carbonated, this is an excellent summer "dessert" drink.
