I love chronicled taste tests! The instruction that young TV chefs are given is to describe in great detail what they are tasting, so the viewer can accurately imagine it. So next time, let’s have more adjectives like, “vile”, “abominable” and “egregious to the tastebuds”.

Orchid64- True, NEX is not really the right mixer, but neither conveni I went to had regular Pepsi, only Pepsi White, so I just went with what I could get. Caramel coloring, well, that’ll be the case whatever brand of Pepsi I use to mix with.

Jei- Ha, guess you have the measure of us Mike’s then.

Billywest- It’s good to know someone appreciates all the fighting and dying that goes on at these front lines, thank you.

Leila- Hey, good to see you here. ‘Doogh’ huh? Cool name, sounds interesting.

Tornadoes- Yeah, just about. Though not a bad taste really.

Can Mike- Don’t know where that ‘stir with a fork’ voice came from. Surprised myself when I heard it on film. And test- Mike, I’m talking ‘scientific’ tests here. With bunsen burners and apparati.

Good calm voice. Stiring with a fork! I was half expecting the drink to maybe get knocked over on your couch! Looked a bit unstable.

What do you mean nobody tested the drink? What do you think I did?

Very interesting! We don’t have that in the U.S. Although it reminds me of a traditional Persian drink called “doogh,” which is made of yogurt, soda, and mint. It’s actually pretty good!

Thank you, sir, for doing the dirty work and manning the front lines. You are a better man than me, and I salute you.

This is clearly Suntory’s attempt at a lame response to Calpis Soda using cola.
When I tried this at ultimate last week, I laid down bets on the Can to be the first Mike to review Yogurt Pepsi, but that you would be close behind. Looks like Doug owes me a Pepsi White!

You can’t really use Nex as your base because it’s sugar-free and it has much more lemon than basic Pepsi. For a true “test”, you’d have to use regular Pepsi. Even then, you’ve got that icky caramel coloring going on in the mix.
