Pepsi Electric Blue (Tesco) By @Cinabar

Everything in my instinct tells me not to drink blue things. I know there are plenty of safe food colourings in the industry, but it is one of those things that always gives me a little uncomfortable feeling. I love new stuff, though, and I love anything a bit different, so I picked up a bottle of this Pepsi Electric Blue drink.

Once I got home, I opened up the bottle and poured it into a glass, and I realised just how blue the drink is; even the foam from the fizz was blue. Oh my. 

I gave it a tentative sip. The drink tasted good; it was Pepsi with a super nice fruity twist. If I had to guess the flavour, I would say blueberry and lemon were involved. I think there was a nice, sharp citrus taste, but also something fruity and a bit more mellow. I might be influenced by the colour here with the blueberry element, but that is how it tasted. 

The drink is a fun colour; blue might not be my thing, but flavour-wise, this Pepsi Electric Blue worked. Have the drink chilled with a slice of lemon, and you have a perfect new summer flavour. It is one I’d buy again; just because the fruity citrus taste is just so nice.
