Truthfully, we don’t know what the hell it is. Neither one of us really thinks it tastes like lime! We think it is some kind of a melon flavor. The label says it is supposed to taste like “tropical lime.” Not regular lime. He gets it when he orders his drunk Taco Bell. Not that we would want to sway your vote or anything…Īs we said, Baja Blast has been available at Taco Bell for ages. We are going to take a look at each one for you.
Get ready! This is the most important vote for 2016! Stop the press (what’s that, right millenials?!). So get out your man buns, man purses, and fuzzy beards. Because millennials have nothing else to worry about besides voting for Dew. Yes, there is a big social media push with this entire thing. You can also vote on the website, but like, you know, like, it’s waaaaaay kewler to vote, like, on Twitter! The side of the bottles indicate to pick a flavor, hashtag your vote on Twitter using #VoteBajaBlast or #VotePitchBlack, and then follow the results on. Some decisions are very important, you see. The winner will end up on store shelves permanently. It has also hit shelves a time or two since then. Pitch Black was released in 2004 to tie in with Halloween. It’s a fight between two flavors of Mountain Dew.īaja Blast has been sold exclusively in Taco Bells since 2004. Thanks for stopping by and I’ll see you all for the next Dew Review.Nope, it’s not political. Considering my general love for the Energy line, I’m expecting that to be another new favorite flavor, and one I’ll definitely have to horde for when the time comes that it’s no longer available. I didn’t see that one yesterday at the grocery store, but rest assured, if and when I do see it, I’m going to be picking it up and trying it as well. There’s supposedly an Energy version of it going around out there, too. It reminds me of why this is one of my top flavors of Dew. Well done, Mountain Dew flavor-makers, another home run in this case for me. So, yes, while I do think it’s been slightly tweaked from the last time I had it, I don’t dislike the changes that were made. There’s more for your tongue to taste than just Sweet and Grape. This has that grape as the main flavor, but there’s back-up notes of citrus to help give it more of a blended flavor. As I said, most artificial grape I find to simply be too overpowering. Though, I do feel that, like the smell, the citrus notes have been turned up just a bit in the mix. It’s still that artificial grape that I have come to love from Pitch Black. It’s definitely that same dark purple color with the fizz being more blue on the very top. Though, part of me wishes I had an old Pitch Black to try side-by-side with this one, or even a Malaysian one. Maybe a bit more of the citrus notes coming through, though I still feel like I’m getting artificial grape in there. Well, it still smells like the Pitch Black that I remember, at least for the most part. I don’t entirely know what that means, but let’s get to it. This version seems like it’s a dark citrus punch. Not that it lacked flavor by any means, but if other artificial grape was, “ GRAPE!!!” then Pitch Black was just, “Grape!” It was the right amount to me. I have talked about Dew flavors being a kick in the tongue, but most artificial grape I found was like a freight train to the tongue. I generally found it to always be too sweet and too powerful.
To be very honest, I’m generally not a big fan of artificial grape flavor. Well, now that it’s cold, let’s see what we’ve got.Īs I mentioned above, Pitch Black was Mountain Dew’s grape flavor. It was just released this week and you know as soon as I saw some, I was going to get it. But, PepsiCo has thrown us a lifeline and, at least for a limited time, we can once more find Pitch Black on store shelves. But that’s expensive and the soda just wasn’t as fizzy as I liked. At best, you can get imported ones from Malaysia, which I’ve done. The only problem is that it’s been years since you could get Pitch Black here in the States. However, among the other flavors that vie for my top spots is Pitch Black, Mountain Dew’s grape flavor.
MOUNTAIN DEW PITCH BLACK CODE
Longtime readers with a really good memory might remember that my favorite flavor of Dew is Code Red. And this is one that I’ve been waiting to write for a long, long time.
