Shabazz Fruit Cola

Product Type:Carbonated Soft Drink: Regular; Container: 20 oz.
BevNET Review: Drinking like something that might typically be called a champagne cola, this product isn’t really a cola at all. Instead, it has a tropical bubblegum flavor that’s sweet and has a bit of bite to it. Sweetened with high fructose corn syrup (or “syrup” as they’ve labeled it), the product has a syrupy finish, which is not all that pleasant. On the other hand, they’ve added caffeine, which might give a slight kick depending on how much is in it. Packaging is the worst part about the product, with a 20 fl plastic bottle and a paper label that’s loud and hard to read. Really, this seems like one of those unfortunate drinks that’s going to end up in the bargain bin. We simply don’t see a market for something like this.Reviewed on: 2/9/2009
