Tasha Tries: The New Flavors of Diet Coke
Diet Coke introduced four new flavors and I was curious. The new flavors are Ginger Lime, Twisted Mango, Zesty Blood Orange, and Feisty Cherry.
Full disclosure, I like Coke Zero, and most of the Zero sodas, better than Diet Coke, but I wanted to see what these new flavors were about.
And it took me awhile to find the Twisted Mango. So once I had them all, it was time to taste test.
Overall, I wouldn't say the flavors knocked you out, they were more subtle. The Ginger Lime had a little zing after the fact from the ginger and it might be good with Mexican food. I mean you use lime with a lot of Mexican foods already so it would be a great compliment.
Twisted Mango was pretty good. It was definitely sweeter than the Ginger Lime.
Zesty Blood Orange had a distinct citrus flavor. It did have a little kick of an after taste, maybe thats the zesty part.
And the Feisty Cherry, at first I thought it wasn't that different from the original Diet Cherry Coke, but after drinking more of it and letting it sink in there is a definite after burn. I'm not sure that's the right way to describe it, but there was a little bit of a spicy after taste, that must be the Feisty part!
Overall, the Zesty Blood Orange was my favorite new flavor. However, I probably like any of the Zero brand products best.
