Diet LIME Coke?!?!?

[bigredguy]

Was just at Ralph's in southern california and saw this on display. I haven't seen this on TV yet so gave it a try. It's ok i guess, might try it again if i find it in regular. Has anyone else tried it yet?

Probably a regional thing.

Coke is acidic enough without "lime".

Lime should only be in coke when it is mixed with rum, bourbon, or whiskey.

So what's the problem? Buy this stuff, add rum.....instant Cuba Libre'!

Somehow I doubt it'll work out well, but that's sure a good idea. :beer:

Since when is adding alcohol to any drink a bad idea?

yourself. Snopes is debunking the "Acids In Coke Will Kill You" bit, not what it can and can't do. From that article:

Many of the entries above are just simple household tips involving Coca-Cola. That you can cook and clean with Coke is relatively meaningless from a safety standpoint ? you can use a wide array of common household substances (including water) for the same purposes; that fact alone doesn't necessarily make them dangerous to ingest. Nearly all carbonated soft drinks contain carbonic acid, which is moderately useful for tasks such as removing stains and dissolving rust deposits (although plain soda water is much better for some of these purposes than Coca-Cola or other soft drinks, as it doesn't leave a sticky sugar residue behind).

Oh, it's not the alcohol I'm questioning. It's whether or not the Diet Lime Crap will suck to start with.

It will suck. Just like Diet Coke with Lemon. In my opinion, their flavor systems are all messed up.

Too bad this only comes in diet.

Just picked up a couple bottles on my way home, it's actually pretty good.

true.. I would try this.. which ralphs are you talking about? I am in Los Angeles and haven't seen this

 

[Saulbadguy]

I think the Lime is just a repackaged version of the Lemon one. It tastes the same.

 

[Zim Hosein]

Cough!

 

[Electrode]

I just tried the stuff myself. I think it tastes pretty damn good, similar to Sprite kinda...
