Hopefully, it’ll become more regularly widespread and won’t be so hard to find in the future, but you never know. I’ve got my case and I’ll slowly work on that. But, if you do find it, I would recommend picking some up. I mentioned that I had some issue finding this Dew out in the wild. I did say that my favorite flavor was cherry red, after all. It might just be my new favorite out of the group. So, all in all, I have to say that Cherry Lime Lift is a very welcome addition to the Rise Energy line. Like, I taste it because I’m kind of “looking for it” as I’m doing this review, but it’s not overpowering like it’s been in some of the Dew Zero reviews I’ve done. And there is a bit of an aspartame aftertaste, but it’s not very pronounced. And, in general, like the fruit juice based Dews, overall, this does have a bit more of a round flavor to it, as opposed to the sharp flavor of the all artificial Dews. It’s more around the sides of the flavor, rounding things out with that bit of an almost earthy note that lime has. There is a bit of the lime, though it’s not exactly front-and-center. But yeah, I’m getting mostly the more natural flavor of cherry from the drink. Obviously, not that there’s anything wrong with artificial cherry. Much like with how it smells, it’s got closer to the natural cherry flavor as opposed to the artificial cherry of Code Red. So, there’s a small chance that there’s maybe half an actual cherry in the whole can. I’m sure that part of that flavor is going to come from artificial cherry, but it does say that there’s some natural flavors in there as well. As for the smell, it’s got more of the natural-cherry smell as opposed to the artificial-cherry smell. I don’t know if I’ve seen a Dew quite this color before. It looks very red in the photo, but it’s actually a really deep pink. The picture doesn’t entirely tell the whole story. But before I can drink it, we need to get to the pour. And considering my favorite flavor is cherry red (the only thing Mick and I have in common) and I love limes, I’m looking forward to this one. So, the line is apparently doing well enough that PepsiCo decided to come out with a new flavor for it. I just know that it’s caffeine, it’s fizzy, it’s sweet, and it’s not absolutely loaded with sugar. I don’t really get into that kind of thing. It’s also got B-vitamins for “focus” and such. The rest of its sweetener coming from aspartame. So, it’s not zero sugar, but it is generally less sugar. But it also doesn’t have any added sugar afterward. Like the Kickstart and Game Fuel lines, this soda has 5% juice. I don’t drink coffee or tea, but will grab a Dew in the morning if I feel I need a bit of get-up-and-go. And while I don’t generally need the caffeine, this describes me. This line is made for the people who grab a soda instead of coffee or tea for their morning caffeine rush. Let’s get to it.įirst, a small background on Rise Energy. Then, when I ordered a case off of Amazon, the first package got lost. Mountain Dew had revealed a new Rise Energy flavor and despite it being in Instacart for places all around me, nobody seemed to actually have it. This is one I’d hoped to have done a couple weeks ago, but such was not the case.
