PASig“Kola Champagne” Soda Is NOT Cola!
Picked up a bottle of this soda at a local Puerto Rican restaurant and I’m thinking “oh, I love Cola, let me try a PR version!”
GROSS! It’s like liquid BUBBLE GUM with about 6 pounds of sugar in each bottle. Seriously I think it was the sweetest, most disgusting soda I’ve ever tried to drink!
Wouldn’t you think “Kola” = Cola? Apparently not.

I believe kola is their version of our "soda" (or pop if you live in one of the backwards parts of the US). I think it applies to all carbonated soft drinks.

Soda is pop and a scoop or 2 of ice cream.

OrgussI prefer the term, "refreshing soft drink."

PASigIt was nasty.
Seriously the sweetest soda I’ve ever drank.
And yes, I’m from Pennsylvania so it’s always been “SODA” to me, not “Pop” or “Coke”.
I ran into that whole Coke-as-any-soft-drink weirdness while in the South when a I asked for a large “Coke” somewhere and they asked me what kind and I was confused. Uhh, Coca-Cola, like the only thing it can be to this Yankee?

flesheatingvirusYou Yanks and your “pop”, “unsweetened tea”, and...”mixed vegetables”.

egregoreI can't help thinking of "Lola" by the Kinks when I read this. "When you drink champagne and it tastes just like Coca/cherry cola ..." (This depends on which version.)
