You all know the classic Mountain Dew. The one with the green bottle. It is "citrus" flavoured. Lime, one would presume based on the colour. At least I can tell what it is. Things get a bit muddy later down the line. It's okay. I would choose it over most other sodas. I have not had much of it, but I would currently rate it a 4.6/10.
I have not bought Code Red yet. Mainly because it looks gross. I will try it soon and add my opinion.
I tried Baja Blast for the first time today. It was pretty good. I like the colour and the logo. It is a summer drink for sure, and even though it is fall, I can still enjoy it. It tastes like tropical sugar to me, but apparently it is tropical lime. 7/10.
Voltage (or Blue Voltage as I call it) is my current go-to flavour of Mountain Dew. Maybe I would switch things up more but my school's vending maching only has Voltage, Code Red and Spark. And I don't want to go to the convenience store during lunch because that's where all the trashy kids hang out. I had no idea what Blue Voltage was supposed to taste like until I looked it up today. Apparently it is Raspberry Citrus. I couldn't have told you that with a gun to my head. I don't know why Mountain Dew is always colouring their flavours weird. Oh well. I like my Blue Juice. I probably wouldn't drink it if it was pink. I guess I can see it now that I know.
Anyways, this stuff is good enough I sacrifice having a real meal for lunch to buy it. Lunch at my highschool is six bucks. Mountain Dew is three. Thankfully, a microwaveable cup of KD is only two bucks. That means I can buy a Mountain Dew, KD and have one dollar extra. Three days of that and I can buy another Mountain Dew. Sometimes I mix a little Blue Voltage into my KD. It's not bad. Next time I'll try cooking it in Mountain Dew instead of water.
All of this is just a long way to say that I give Blue Voltage an 8.7/10.
I see this stuff is limited time so I will be sure to try it soon.
From what I can tell there is a different mystery VooDew flavour every year. I have only tried this one. It is currently a mystery. The flavour is in partnership with a candy brand, so that makes my life a lot easier. It had a milder taste, so my current prediction is Jolly Rancher or Skittles. I will have to run more tests. Anyhow, as I said it was surprisingly mild. Usually "Mystery" flavours are just the runoff of other candies without dye. I'm not a huge fan of it being white, if I'm being honest. It makes sense, I just don't like that I could mix cornstarch with water and achieve a similar look. What do you even use to dye soda white? I give it a 6.5/10 Edit: Looks like I was wrong about the flavour.
Pitch Black was a flavour that I found last year at Halloween. I was intrigued by it's colour and drank it quite a few times even though I wasn't a full-fledged Dew Fan yet. It is actually dark purple and not black. I'm not complaining. "Black" dye is just really concentrated blue. Quite frankly I think that much food colouring would kill me. I quite like Pitch Black and am disappointed it did not return this year to my knowledge. It has a pleasant citrus taste, as I'm seeing most Mountain Dew does. Pitch Black gets a 9.1/10. Please bring it back.
