Farewell, Cranberry Splash...

January 7, 2012

I LOVE Sierra Mist's Cranberry Splash.  I sadly brought my last liter of the stuff from my garage fridge last night.  Problem is, it only is available 4 months out of the year.  So today I took my husband's advice and asked if there was any left - there were some liters out on the floor but non-diet.  The guy asked me how many and I'd say as many as he had unless it was 40 or 50.

About 5 minutes later, much to my delight, he reappared with 4 liters and said that's the last of it.  I told him he definitely had made my day.  I can't stock up on this for the whole year because of the artificial sweetener used in it.  It definitely has a shelf life and tastes like paint once it gets to its expiration date. 

I currently  have 2 or 3 more 12 packs which I must consume by February 12th (the paint thing) and now 4 more liters.  It'll be back on September 1st, less than 8 months from now.  I wish they (Pepsico) would make this flavor year 'round....sigh.
