Tropic Cola_ That Makes Me Angry... Angry Birds Angry!

The merchandising geniuses at Rovio are back again. This time around, instead of incredibly weird meats and Star Wars-themed video pg123 games, the fine folks that make Angry Birds have now released a series h25 com เข้าสู่ระบบ of Angry Birds Colas. https://kotaku.com/angry-birds-pork-products-how-i-wish-they-came-with-sc-5909968 Originally sold and marketed in Finland and Europe, Angry Birds soda has been showing up slowly around the world. These aren’t the same as the Angry Birds Coke tie-ins found in the US but instead, this is branded Angry Birds soda. That’s right, Angry Birds soda. On top of that, every different can features a different bird. Each one comes in a different flavour.cnx.cmd.push(function(){cnx({"playerId":"e3616d04-4972-4839-a63a-c6975e2e9731","settings":{"advertising":{"macros":{"AD_UNIT":"/23178111854/od.kotaku.com/article","CHILD_UNIT":"article","POST_ID":"1441869655","POST_TYPE":"post","CHANNEL":"kotaku-east","SECTION":"","SUBSECTION":"","CATEGORIES":"kotaku-east","TAGS":"","NOP":"0"},"timeBeforeFirstAd":0}}}).render("cnx-player-main")}); It’s unknown how these sodas managed to get into China, but I came across three different ones at my local 7-11—the magical convenience store of dreams. The flavours that were available were, Red Bird: Tropic Cola, Yellow Bird: Paradise Cola and Orange Bird: Sunrise. Now, based on the names alone, these colas make absolutely zero sense. In terms of taste, these colas also make no sense, but they’re actually mighty delicious. Red Bird: Tropic Cola Splashed with a blue background and a giant portrait of the Red Bird on a field of green, the Red Bird comes in “Tropic Cola” flavour. The can doesn’t really explain what “tropic cola” is but if I had to guess, I’d say it’s Hawaiian Punch but carbonated. Turns out, I was wrong. The soda tastes more like Japan’s CC Lemon. In the US I might relate it to a form of Sierra Mist mixed with Coke. There is a limey, pineapple-like taste with an orange afternote that reminds me of SunKist orange soda. Yellow Bird: Paradise Covered with the Yellow Bird, the Paradise flavour is something strange. Originally I had expected the yellow-coloured soft drink to taste more citrusy. Instead, I was welcomed to a pineapple and coconut blend. The ingredients don’t list coconut at all. Paradise flavour didn’t bring to me paradise. Despite my fascination with bubbly drinks, there isn’t one that I can relate this to. The colour and taste difference still has me baffled. Orange Bird: Sunrise The only cant that’s colour that matched its can and bird colour tasted great. Unlike the previous two cans, I was sure this can would be an orange soda affair. I was right. There’s not much to be said about โค้ดเครดิตฟรีสมาชิกใหม่ล่าสุด Sunrise. It tastes just like orange soda, a little flat maybe, but it’s nothing home to write home about. All of this soda compounded with my impacted wisdom tooth has left me a bad taste in my mouth, though Sunrise is probably my favourite of the three. Selling close to 10 yuan or $1.60 a can, the sodas are a bit expensive (at least in China anyway). The major upside of drinking or buying these cans is the fact that these cans are rather decorative and pretty. There’s a different bird on each can. Maybe someone can collect them all!
