Cigars And Creme Soda?

The Poet · 08-04-2009, 05:03 PM

I just took a little break from work - if you can call this work - to enjoy a short smoke. As it is pretty hot and sticky here in Joisey today, I grabbed a Boylan Creme Soda out of the cooler to have with my Partagas Purito. Tons of flavorful smoke from this Marlboro-sized tinned beauty, a 4.25X32 EMS, with just enough pepper to make it interesting. And you may not believe how good it went with that ice-cold creme soda! The soda was not too heavy as to overpower the cigar, just as the cigar was not to strong to burn out the soda. I was shocked, and most pleasantly so.

Hey, don't knock it 'til you tried it, brothers.

I drink creme soda, coke, chocolate milk with cigars all the time. All work well.

Knock it? It could be the best thing EVER!!!!

Jones Cream Soda is my favorite by far and yeah it goes great with a cigar. IBC isn't a bad second place.

Up in Wisconsin we have had Creme Sode and Orange Soda (the one that tastes like a Dreamsicle) with cigars, and it complements the cigars nicely.

Had a creme soda with a cigar while driving home from the shore on Sunday.

kelmac07 · 08-04-2009, 06:26 PM

Growing up it was Santa Fe Red Cream soda..I don't even know if they make that anymore. I have a 12 pack of Jones Cream Soda sitting in the fridge...gonna try one tonight. Thanks for the tip.

Cream Soda, Rootbeer and Dr. Pepper have all worked well for me in the past

bowhnter · 08-04-2009, 06:43 PM

Guess I will put some cream soda on my shopping list!

Poe · 08-04-2009, 07:15 PM

I love it too. If you guys are lucky enought to live by a place that sells micro brewed soda check it out, its whole another world.

For a regionally-appropriate, roller-approved variation, try champagne cola.

Meanwhile, I will second the IBC recommendation. The lighter carbonation on display makes it extra quaffable with a burning stick.

HA!! I just tried this the other day and it was awesome! I thought I was nuts tho lol
