We used to go to an American restaurant all the time, so much so that it took three bad experiences in a row to finally convince us to stop going. Normally we are quite fickle, and one bad experience is enough! The thing I miss most from there, though (because I can easily do hot dogs and burgers at home), is the grape soda I always ordered. I absolutely love the stuff.
Grapes in America taste quite different from the ones we get in the UK. They have a much stronger, almost medicinal flavour, and I think it can confuse British taste buds a bit, but I really enjoy it. So when I spotted that Fanta had brought out a Grape edition, I just had to hunt down a bottle.
I poured the drink into a glass and it had a deep red-purple colour with a good level of fizz. One sip immediately made me smile. This drink has that full-on tangy American grape flavour. It almost has a slight hint of Dr Pepper, but with a fuller, fruitier taste. I absolutely love it, although I can appreciate that it is definitely an acquired taste. For me, though, I am so happy to be able to enjoy this flavour again.
Have you tried Fanta Grape, and what did you think?
