Today I’m trying an Icelandic Ginger & Peach COLLAB drink with fish collagen. The first thing you notice is the smell. It’s very distinctive. I tried to pinpoint what it was exactly, but I’m still not sure. Luckily, it didn’t smell like fish. I don’t think I would’ve been able to handle that.
Once you get used to the smell, it’s time for the taste. And honestly, it’s not as bad as I thought it would be. I was worried the ginger would completely take over, but I was pleasantly surprised. Peach is actually the main flavour you notice most. Admittedly, it doesn’t stay with you for very long. It’s just a short, pleasant taste, and then it’s gone.
All in all, it was a nice drink and I did enjoy it. Would I buy it myself? Probably not. But a mate gave it to me, so I was happy to give it a go.
Here’s another winter-edition drink. For some reason, I decided to try these now closer to summer rather than Christmas. But let’s get back to the drink itself: IRN-BRU Spiced Ginger & Cinnamon.
It’s not as good as the gingerbread Pepsi. I love everything cinnamon-related, but this one was lacking that note. You do get a lot of ginger, though, and that flavour really sticks with you. I’m not sure that’s what I want from a drink.
Needless to say, this was a one-time experience. I didn’t think about winter at any point while drinking it.
Do you miss Xmas, but don’t want to gain those extra pounds around your midsection? Their gingerbread-flavoured Pepsi is the answer for you. At first, I wasn’t sure if I wanted to take the risk. I wasn’t sure if “drinking” cookies was something I’d like to try, but I was positively surprised. It tastes really good. Yes, you can taste the gingerbread, but not for long, and it mixes nicely with the sweetness of Pepsi. Definitely worth trying.
