Trying Things So You Don't Have To:

Last time it was CherryMint Metro Mint.

It was baaaadddd.  Cherry mouthwash bad.  Scratch that, cherry mouthwash might be good.
It was cough syrup cherry/real mint disguised as fake mint - can't decide if it's a drink or a medicine bad.

Now up - ChocolateMint Metro Mint water.  

It's in a brown bottle.  It's got a peppermint leaf and and chuck of chocolate on it.
I am not allowed caffiene due to my "I need to breathe" medicine.  In the those up
between caffienated goodness and breathing, breathing one.  Barely.  

I am trying to avoid "cranky" so now I am looking for chocolate substitutes.
I know, I know, I am the one who believes chocolate that is not dark and real isn't worth it.

But alas, again, I went with breathing.



It smells like homemade cocoa with a hint of peppermint extract.

At first, it tastes really good - like dark chocolate and mint and I begin to hope.

Hope, alas, is killed violent with the powdered cocoa aftertaste.  And by cocoa
I mean that baking cocoa.  Have you ever tried baking cocoa?  It's bitter and powdery, and yes, powdery can be
a taste.


I don't know how water can feel dry.  But now I have experienced it.

MetroMint has struck out again.

Why would anyone mix fruit and mint? That's just disgusting.

Orange and peppermint is good. Lemon and peppermint is a classic, and also good.

Cherry and mint - smells good. I have had cherry/peppermint candies I liked.

I think fruit and mint is more of an Eat Coast thing, rather than a West Coast thing.

Are you going to Comic-con?
