Georgia Peach Coca-Cola: Bought it hoping it would be good, expecting it to not really be good, IT IS DELICIOUS!!!!!

Georgia Peach Coca-Cola.
Saw them in Single glass bottles at the grocery today. Figured I’d pick one up just because.
Hoped it would be good so that is why I bought it but did not really expect it to be all that good.
Got it home and put it in the fridge so it was nice and cold.
Wow, it is really really good.
Just enough peach flavor not too artificial or overbearing pairs very nicely with the original coke flavor.
Not something to drink with a meal or chug when you are thirsty but a beverarge to enjoy and sip slowly.

Do you think it would pair nicely with Jack?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I can't say, as I never even see Georgia Peach Coca-Cola, but I will say that Walmart peach soda and Bourbon is very good!

I will have to look for this Georgia Peach Coca-Cola, it sounds interesting.

Everything or nothing pairs nicely with bourbon.

I think I saw these flavored Cokes available at my grocery store a month or so ago available in 4 packs. I didn't try them though.

Granted I am going on a decade since I have given up on any of the Devil’s drink. Even when I partook quite substantially I was never a big fan of Jack and Coke. I preferred Rum.
The peach is VERY subtle so I think ol’ Jack would overtake the peach and not be a very good compliment unless you were going very light on the jack.

I've tried it with Dr. Pepper at one time. I remember that I didn't like it.

Well. This is good news.

The recent Diet Coke flavors sucked. Zesty Blood Orange, Ginger Lime, Feisty Cherry, and Twisted Mango. The same "zingy, stingy ginger" base covered with a fruit flavor. I wouldn't mix them with Old Crow or Templeton Lie .

I've seen the balance of very good, very subtle beer (think Anchor Steam Christmas and New Year's) get thrown waaay outta whack just by putting it on a truck and shipping it to Texas. I know beer and soda are two different things, but I wonder if the taste is better the closer one is to a regional bottling plant.

Yeah. That stuff is awesome. Wifey likes the raspberry but I haven't tried it yet. Georgia Peach Coke is good to go!

I finally tried these flavors after I saw them in the store again this week. I like the raspberry better than the peach. For me the peach was a little overpowering with the first bottle but by the 4th bottle I thought it was just right. However at $4.99 for a four pack of 12 oz bottles, I don't think I'll be buying these again even though they are made with cane sugar and not high fructose corn syrup.

That's a LOT of sugar!

A local Winn-Dixie carries both the peach and raspberry. Of the two, I like raspberry more, but I prefer plain Coca-Cola or Cherry Coke over either the peach or raspberry.

A local gas station has them, buy one get one for $1. I got one of each. The raspberry I had before and enjoyed. The peach is good, the raspberry is better I think.

I like Coke. I like fountain Coke. I tried New Coke when it came out but I did not like it. I do not like flavored Coke. Well, ok, I like the flavored Coke at the soda fountain when they used to exist. Back when it was Coke and a dollop of flavored syrup. Vanilla was my favorite.

I do not like bottled flavored Coke though. It's just not the same. I haven't tried this stuff but I am fairly certain peach or raspberry does not belong in Coke.

A Coke should be enjoyed plain, chilled, in a glass or wax cup with ice, or when you watch it eat the corrosion off of your battery terminals.

McDonalds Coke is the best in the styrofoam cup which is no longer.
