Quite by accident I found out that Pepsi Max and Red Wine taste great together.

So I looked it up and it turns I was not the first to discover this.

1. Sounds interesting

Hrm. I'm going to have to give this a try with that over-the-hill case of Pinot Noir sitting around..

3. My happy accident was with a $15 bottle of Spanish Rioja

But like Sangria, I don't think it needs to be a high quality wine.

5. That's the kind of drink that teenagers drink a lot of and then start projectile vomiting.

I saw it happen to a classmate in college once. She should have just stuck to beers.

7. It sounds gross to me too, but like I said I was pleasantly surprised.

Apparently, the purists use Coke. ;)

9. I stay was from sodas, as a general rule but, if I did try this drink

it would be with Coke. Pepsi tends to be too flat and sweet for my palate.

I'll get back to you :)

10. I shouldn't over promise because this is not the nectar of the gods.

but it was surprisingly pleasant. Like following an artichoke heart with milk. mmmm.
