I tried the "Fresca" flavoured sparkling soda the other day. I put Fresca in quotations because I'm not sure if this is the same brand umbrella as the real Fresca? I'm not sure why they're adding confusion to the Fresca market. Fresca is a drink, not a brand of drinks dammit.

Anyway, I tried the grapefruit version of this new, imposter Fresca and it made me yearn for the chemical burn of original Fresca's highly artificial flavour. It was very mild. Maybe another flavour would have been better.

This flavoured soda water trend seems to be growing, which I'm ok with, just don't besmirch the name of a treasured brand like Fresca.
