Pepsi-Cola Holiday Spice: Pepsi Holiday Spice

Last Updated: 11/2/2004 7:43 PM

Product Type: Carbonated Soft Drink: Regular; Container: Various
BevNET Review: Holiday Spice is a unique, limited-time offering from Pepsi. Based on normal Pepsi cola, Holiday Spice is, as the name implies, a spiced-up version of Pepsi. We're not entirely sure what "holiday spices" were used in this product, but the end result is a definite improvement over regular Pepsi cola. This reddish toned beverage has a sweet and slightly syrupy body with a mild spice and bite to the finish. The classic styled package is a big improvement over the often-sterile feeling of Pepsi's packaging. Even though the quality is mediocre at best, this product is worth trying if you are a Pepsi-drinker.

Pepsi needs to make this again

Great soda. Fond memories of the holiday season this soda was last released. Goes great with some Southern Comfort, but is just fine by itself. Love Holiday Pepsi!

a surprising unique treat instead of a gimmick for a change

I was skeptical about this when I tried it, then when I tried it it had Christmas time written all over it. It seems like something I would've had for my childhood, only in my more cynical adult days. My tastes changed as I got older, I never actually used to like that "spice drop" taste, but now I kinda do..especially when you add carbonation and pepsi. I don't feel it makes it sweeter, I think it actually takes the sweet-edge or original pepsi off a bit and gives it a more mature, hearty flavor. I really wish they didn't abandon this while other genuine gimmicky hype products return year after year.

Cloves, Nutmeg, and Cinnamon - Yumm!!!

First off I am sorely disappointed in the description of this product. It seems to have been written by someone that has no sense of taste. Now, as a child I grew up with Coca Cola never really could stand the taste of it. Then when we moved into the country where Pepsi was prevalent I grew a strong desire to drink more Pepsi! I love Pepsi even here in Texas I will go out of my way to get Pepsi if it isn't available in the store. Now, Pepsi Spice comes along for a holiday taste. I must say my first can was unique. I wasn't sure what to think of it, the second can was better, and by the third can I was hooked. I wish Pepsi would bring it back every Christmas Season. One thing of note though on certain batches of regular Pepsi for about two years following the trial run you could taste a hint of the cloves and cinnamon in a regular can of Pepsi. To bad that Pepsi doesn't keep a good thing going, similar to Pepsi Clear. Then again I guess you could say the same about Coca-Cola's OK Soda.

Bring In On Back!!!

When this was put on the market, I bought it on a whim. I have always loved Pepsi over Coke. I absolutely love(d) it. I'm so disappointed that the Pepsi-Cola company hasn't put it back on the market, even for the holidays. It had something special that just reminded you of Christmas. It's not the same at holiday time without it. Hey, the powers that be at Pepsi-Cola, BRING IT ON BACK!!!
