Cap'n Eli's Lemon Lime has a fantastic flavor. It is not too overwhelming and not too mild. Another great soda from Cap'n Eli!

In 2003 I discovered Moxie after watching a segment on the Food network. This “new” soda opened my eyes to a world of different sodas that I had never heard of before. This site catalogs my ratings of each of these sodas. If you find any interesting sodas that are not on my list, I would love to try them. If you are interested in trying any of the sodas that I have here, let me know and I'll try to find one for you.

Lurch Birch - 5 Thumbs up
Not a bad birchbeer, but nothing amazing either. Great to find this at the Plaza Deli in Santa Barbara. I've said it before and I'll say it again - if you're looking for unusual or vintage sodas, the Plaza Deli in LaCumbre Plaza is the place to go.

AJ Stephans Wild Strawberry - 7 Thumbs up
AJ Stephans Wild Strawberry has a great strawberry taste. If you're looking for a strawberry soda, you could do a lot worse than this.

Chinese Coke - 4 Thumbs up
Coke from China is about the same flavor but a little more mild. It reminded me of Starbucks coffee in China. The same, but milder. What it does have that ours does not is a hot anime drawing on the side and a pull tab.
4 Thumbs up due to the flavor but a fun time!

Apple Sidra - 2 thumbs up
Apple Sidra came from Billy Jankowski who has an innate ability to find strange sodas that taste like bile. Joking aside, they may not taste great but they are fun.
You can really taste the sidra...
I don't recommend this Korean soda.

Trader Joes Vintage Orange Cream - 4 thumbs up
Just an okay soda, nothing special. I wanted a sip but that was it.
Again, I expect more from TJs .

Pop Shoppe Orange - 3 thumbs up
The Pop Shoppe Orange is trying hard to be the sugariest soda ever made. It has a definite orange taste and orange color in a fun little bottle but I feel like I'm drinking pure orange syrup. Three thumbs up

Jones Soda Antacid - 1 thumb up
Jones Antacid Soda was one of the holiday flavors in 2006. I have kept this very pink beverage in my garage fridge for years to show people but had to finally try it. It legitimately tastes like Pepto. If you like a chalky bismuth flavor, then this soda is for you. Novelty aside, it is gross.

Thank you to Billy Jankowski for this truly strange Russian soda.
I don't read Russian but am pretty sure that one of the ingredients says "elf root."
The closest flavor that I can consider this is peach. Mostly, it tastes like bile. Pick this soda up if only to check the ingredient list, but do not taste it.

Columbia Sodaworks Sarsaparilla - 2 thumbs up
Columbia Sodaworks Sarsaparilla
This tastes like corn syrup mixed with black licorice. Terrible aftertaste. Don't walk away from this soda - RUN.
2 thumbs up.
