Patriotic Mtn Dew Hits The Yakima Valley! White Review!
I believe it was the great musician Rupert Holmes who sang in his 1979 song Escape:
“If you like Piña Coladas, and getting’ caught in the rain?”
Well, no rain is needed for the new patriotic flavor from Mtn Dew because HOLY CRAP!
Mtn Dew Flavor Taste Testing Legal Disclaimer
Just like with my review of the other patriotic flavor from Mtn Dew (Star Spangled Splash), here’s my legal C.Y.A.
I (nor my fellow reviewers) am not being paid in any way shape or form to review this soft drink. This is not a paid advertisement for (or against) this soft drink. My friend Gloria (who gets no funds to help with these reviews) purchased them for me because she knows I like drinking pop and sharing my thoughts!
Taste Test of Mtn Dew: Freedom Fusion
Who would have thought that Freedom tasted like a carbonated Piña Colada? I was not a fan of the drink before I had it in soda form, and I’m still not a fan after.
If you love the mix of coconut, pineapple, and Mtn Dew zest, then you’ll like this. I did not.
2nd Opinion of Mtn Dew: Freedom Fusion
My friends Eugene and Nathan once again helped me out for the taste testing of this patriotic pop. Eugene commented how the drink looks like water aeration! Then he tried it.
“Oh God!” – Eugene T. (Not impressed with it).
3rd Opinion of Mtn Dew: Freedom Fusion
Nathan seemed to like it the most out of the three of us, talking about the tropical vibe and the pineapple aftertaste, but he still wasn’t a fan.
“If you like Piña Colada, because Jesus Christ!” – Nathan S.
Final thoughts: According to our taste buds, it’s a piña colada soda. If that's your thang, you're in luck!
Have you tried it? If so, Tap the App and let us know if it’s worth the risk of ruining a relationship (listen to that Escape song for context on that joke).
