It's the Bomb!... Pop

Another treasure my daughter brought to me on a recent visit home from college is this Alani energy drink can.

One of her friends drinks Alani and my daughter is going to try to get more cans for me.

But this one is called Rocket Pop.  And the flavor is obviously Bomb Pop, as hinted at by the design of the rocket ship.

Her friend said this was delicious!  I can only imagine the taste must have been out of this world!

Coca-Cola Move

Ok, so there's a lot of information on this little 7.5 fl oz can and I had to Google it to figure out what it all meant.  


By the way, I'm fish-sitting this week while my daughter is on a trip for Spring Break.  Leo is eyeing the can, maybe he wants to try this new limited edition flavor of Coca-Cola called Move.

Move is the flavor and I've been told it tastes like Pina colada, it has kind of a coconut taste.  This is the zero sugar variant.  The regular one is white on the right side of the can where this one is black.

Rosalia is a Grammy Award-winning artist Coca-Cola teamed up with for this flavor.  The can design is taken from sketches Rosalia made while sampling Coca-Cola Move at a creative workshop.  The drink also inspired her new single, "LLYLM".  

This is part of Coca-Cola's Creations line of drinks, including Marshmello, Dreamworld, and others.  

Leo is a betta, a tropical fish.  He's probably imagining himself on a beach holding a can of Coca-Cola Move in hand.  Well, in fin.  And maybe not ON the beach but swimming near it.  On second thought he's probably just nervous about that big pink and black thing near his tank.  Either way he's been transformed, I'm sure!

Ginger Lime

A while back Diet Coke released a series of flavored sodas.  

This was one of them.  Ginger Lime.  I'm not a fan of ginger, nor am I a big fan of lime, so I didn't try this but someone else was nice enough to drink it so I could have the can.

Now to get back to cleaning out the pantry of empty cans...

Sweet Watermelon

The weather's been warmer here lately and I'm ready for spring.  On second thought, I'm ready for summer.  My sister put in and underground pool last year and I'm ready to go swimming.


And this can of watermelon soda makes me want it to be summer even more.  This is Kroger brand Mercado Sandia.  A quick Google translation shows this means "watermelon market".  Weird.

My daughter brought this to me from college on her last visit home.  Even hours away from home she's always on the lookout for a new can for me.  I guess I raised her right.

And in the background is a painting she did a few summers ago.  Que apropiada.
