I've mentioned Real Soda before on this blog because they have licensed old, out-of production sodas in order to reproduce and bottle them again. Black Jack's Blue Cream Soda is one of their original label products.
It smells like bubblegum, but it's blue color isn't particularly appetizing. It's strange that some food products are intentionally colored blue, either as a function of marketing to kids or to make it look "crazy", yet I've read through reading about color theory that if someone is trying to diet they should try dyeing their food blue and changing their fridge light bulb blue. The thought behind this being because nothing we normally eat is naturally blue so it is an off-putting color to our mind's appetite.
It isn't a particularly well flavored. The "cream" comes on too strong. There's also a lingering after-taste of blue. What's that like? Well the after-taste seems like some kind of overly sugared vanilla sheet-cake icing from a grocery store bakery. So the gist is, this isn't a drink I'll recommend or that I would find myself picking up to enjoy with a specific food or treat. At least the cap can go in my collection.
