DEWmocracy was a marketing campaign by Pepsi to let their consumers vote on what the next Mountain Dew flavor would be. In November 2007, the campaign kicked off with a website, short film and an online roleplaying game. In January 2008 the three flavors were announced.
In the summer of 2008, after all three flavors had been given fan-created names
and can designs, they were released to the public and people could vote
for their favorite nominee on the website through the end of July.

- Voltage - "Raspberry Citrus Flavor and Ginseng"

The winning flavor, Voltage, was announced on August 19, 2008. Supernova came in second with Revolution bringing up the rear.
