| Get my pies outta the oven!  |
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.  | ||

Distill it into rum? Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it. "If dogs don't go to Heaven, I want to go where they go" Will Rogers The definition of the words we used, carry a meaning of their own... | |||

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. | |||

I prefer the term, "refreshing soft drink." "I'm yet another resource-consuming kid in an overpopulated planet raised to an alarming extent by Hollywood and Madison Avenue, poised with my cynical and alienated peers to take over the world when you're old and weak!" - Calvin, "Calvin & Hobbes" | |||

It 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?  | |||

I 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.) | |||
