Heritage Dr. Pepper and Throwback Mtn. Dew - Page 4

Finally found the Mt Dew today. I must say that its amazing that changing one ingrediant will change the taste as dramatically as it does!!
I thought that it was a little sweeter than the regular Mt Dew, but I didn't find myself being as thirsty after as I usually am.
I'd get it again!

the throwback mountain dew does not contain orange juice, which is a main ingredient in the normal production Dew. i didnt care for the throwback version at all

Sugar!!!! I don't care how bad it is for you. All the crap they have come up with to replace it are just as bad!

It was third on the list on mine. I always check, that way I know that it's good for me

I have yet to find any of the heritage Dr. Pepper. I am a DP (ahhh don't go there) fan. The Dr. and I are tight.

Found the throw back Pepsi, just finished a 12 pack. Here's my review. I thought that it was good flavor, flatter than regular Pepsi (but then again I like flat). Now saying that, I am a jock Daniels fan and Jack and Cokes (Pepsis as the case may be) are a regular in my glass after work. I do not like the way that the throwback mixes with it. It changes the taste and it's not for the better at all.
So by Throwback for regular drinking, and regular Pepsi for mixing.

I used to drink Crown Royal and Dr. Pepper on a regular basis, so after trying and enjoying a Dr. Pepper Heritage, I had to try one of the Heritages with some Crown. I found the same basic concept as above - the Heritage is great for drinking on its own, but did not mix well. I'm not sure how to describe the difference, but it does change the flavor considerably... and not for the better.

Can't find it here in New Jersey . Sprite and Coke in glass bottles is my soda weekness . I don't drink alot of soda but when I see those in glass I just can't resist . I used to like the Pepper when I was a kid so I guess it's the sweetener they use now that I don't like .

I have to second the bourbon and Dr. Pepper phenom, it is the single best mixer for whiskey
I have ever found.

As to the TB Mtn Dew, they can have it. Picked up 24 cans of it one Saturday, and by the
time I was done, I knew I'd never need another can. Like the man said, where's the tang? OJ babay.

For me when the Pepsi and Mountain Dew throwback's came out last year (two years ago? can't remember) I tried it side by side with regular HFCS pepsi and MD. I really couldn't tell enough of a difference that I'd drink one or the other based on taste, but hey, anything without HFCS is great in my book.
