I tend to agree. I love cherry cola so when I saw this, it was a must-try for me, even though I was preparing myself for inevitable disappointment. I wasn’t quite as displeased as you, I was disappointed that I was that disappointed by it, if that makes sense.

I really don’t think I’m going to be able to bring myself to finish it and I hate not being able to finish a packet of tea. :( I adore vanilla coke, so the smell when I opened the it was great, it’s just the taste that’s the (severe) problem.

Maybe you would enjoy it more as a tea soda:

• Brew about 1/3 cup of strong flavored tea like our Cherry Vanilla Cola flavored Black Tea.
• Disolve 1/2 cup sugar into tea.
• Allow to cool or pour over ice.
• Finish with about eight ounces of carbonated water or “sparkling water”.
• Stir and enjoy!

I really don’t think the addition of sparkling water and such vast amounts of sugar is going to make a difference. And honestly, if I wanted that much sugar I’d drink an actual coke.

I tried something like that. My amounts were likely a little different, but in principle that’s what I did. It didn’t work for me.
But luckily I also like carbonated water plain (it’s like ordinary water but with a little kapow!) so it wasn’t a complete loss.
