BevNET Review: Yet another strange creation from Skeleteens. Also know as "The beverage that tastes exactly the same as the spicy beverage, but it isn't spicy because it doesn't have jalepeño in it." That basically sums it up. Its a bunch of roots and weeds, bark, and nuts (ok, we exaggerated, its really just herbs). Anyway, it is basically the same thing as The Drink, except that it does not have jalepeño in it. Other than that, the ingredients are identical. Much better than the spicy beverage. This one is herbal satisfaction...an interesting flavor. We personally prefer the red one over the purple...its got a much lighter taste.

I like them all

I'm not even in their target audience, and I've liked everything I've ever tried from the Skeleteen's line. I don't quite know how some are tasting pickle juice when drinking the purple one, I think it's a unique grape flavor. It's nice to taste something grape flavored that doesn't taste exactly like all of the other ones. Because quite honestly, all grape pop tastes exactly the same. I was a little disappointed that there was no sting to this, because it has capsicum in it, which is red pepper. I'm guessing this brand caters to the skateboard crowd, or the 20 somethings with the little chin beards, but I'm in my early 40's and I love their products.

The purple was like bitter grape soda. I like bitter so that worked well for me. I'll try the pink next chance I get.

The Purple version of this beverage tastes like grape soda and pickle juice. I have not tried the pink, but the purple I would stay away from.

The pink one is good, the purple...not so much.

The pink (or "red") version of Love Potion 69 is by far my favorite beverage. Period. Ever. However, the purple version tastes like sweetened pickle juice, and I can't recommend it to anyone.
