Later in the week I got home from work and saw a can by the curb in front of my house. It turned out to be this Alani Nu Cotton Candy. What are the odds I'd find two Alani Nu cans in one week?

Party Favor
Yesterday I went to a graduation party and what did I see sitting on a window ledge?
A Starbucks energy drink.

DiGiorno
My collection didn't have a 7.5 oz mini Diet Pepsi can yet. But now it does...
Walmart had a coupon if you buy two DiGiorno pizzas you get a free 6-pack of mini Pepsi. I chose the pizza flavors and my kids chose the Pepsi flavor.
One of the more tasty ways I've added a new can to my collection...

Chill
Earlier this year I got this cool can.
It's a Sprite Chill. The flavor is cherry lime. The person who drank it said it was really good, and different for a Sprite flavor.
As this Memorial Day weekend is a little chillier than some, I thought it'd be appropriate to feature this can. Have a good Memorial Day!

Alani New 3
Someone at work really likes Alani Nu energy drinks.
I recently saved these from a terrible recycling fate. I really wonder what these taste like because the names of the flavors are pretty cool. Here we have Dream Float, Strawberry Sunrise, and Witch's Brew.
Of the three I'm most interested in the Witch's Brew. I wonder what magical powers you get from drinking it.

Vikings
And this week brought a cool surprise.
This cool Monster Juice can with a Viking theme.
The flavor is Viking Berry but I didn't think to ask what it tasted like. The can has a nifty story which ends "Grab your drinking horn and take a swig, skoll".
What's a skoll? In Norse mythology, Skoll is a wolf, alongside his brother Kati, who are fated to chase and devour the sun and moon respectively, ultimately leading to the end of the world during Ragnarok.
So this week you've seen a cool can and possibly learned something.

Herbal Tonic
This is an interesting one. It's been a while since I've featured and AriZona can, but here's a recent one.
This is from the AriZona Rx Energy line. It's called Herbal Tonic and is self-described as this:
"An invigorating blend of green tea, tropical & citrus fruits, panax ginseng, eleuthero root, guarana, schisandra, and vitamins A, C, and E."
Wow, a lot of new words in that.
And I love the old-timey-looking art on the can. They could have just called it Snake Oil.

College Poppi
I visited my daughter at college yesterday and had a nice surprise.
Seven new cans she's saved for me. I'll be featuring them in the coming weeks, but this week I chose to show the new Poppi cans.
It's surprising I didn't have the orange can yet. And I received my first little Poppi, a 7.5oz can of Doc Pop, their version of Dr Pepper.
Overall it was a great trip... as is her journey to try all the Poppi flavors.

Flavored Pepsi
I was given a new can this week and it sure looks cool!
The design of this car instantly caught my eye! And the flavor is interesting also, Wild Cherry & Cream. The person who gave this to me said it tasted pretty good, they were a fan.
As far as the look of the can, I'm a fan. It may be a bit busy, but it sure is a neat look for Pepsi.

It Finally Happened to Me
When I seriously started collecting cans in 2011, I read advice from other can collectors and one of the most often stated pearls of wisdom was to drain every can. I read many stories of cans exploding or leaking, causing damage to other cans or shelves in others' collections. So I've followed that advice. For the most part.
I came home from work one day this week and found this in my fridge:

Another Trash Can Save
What better way to start the new year than a trash can save? I found this at work and saved it from the Evil Recycler.
