Sunkist appears to have Mountain Dew in its sights with a 2nd extension of their "Fusion" brand… Sunkist Citrus Fusion. The lime-infused flavor also features increased levels of caffeine and the inclusion of B vitamins, much like the original Sunkist Solar Fusion. Our reviewer noted that it tasted a lot like "liquid green Skittles candy."

Snapple Grape Berry Punch is a decent grape/strawberry blend. It's a low-rent version of the Snapple we are familiar with, but for the affordable price, we can let that slide. It's not something to write home about, and the can is a questionable extension of the brand, but it's refreshingly different take on grape soda.

The twisted orange/pineapple/mandarin flavor in Sunkist Solar Fusion is pretty good. Inclusion of caffeine continues a differentiator of the Sunkist brand in the "orange soda" space. The packaging design is very attractive, which should help with impulse buys at convenience stores. The biggest drawback is probably how the bite from the flavor disappears quickly and leaves you with a very syrupy aftertaste.

7Up is being reformulated in September 2010 to reflect a "crisper" flavor. The last change in formula was in 2006 when the beverage proclaimed "Now 100% Natural".

We give a thumbs up to Cherry Crush. Smart packaging, nice color, and best of all, a pretty tasty & unique cherry beverage from a mainstream beverage brand. It's a nice addition to the Crush lineup!

Sunkist Solar Fusion is coming soon, being a "tropical mandarin flavored soda" supplemented with Vitamin B and caffeine.

BevReview.com takes a look at the beverage-related Super Bowl commercials. In a follow-up to the Gene Simmons "I'm a Doctor" commercial that kicked off the Dr Pepper Cherry campaign, here we have a humorous take on the idea that this drink contains "a little kiss of cherry."

Heritage Dr Pepper is for those who appreciate a good Dr Pepper. Using a combination of cane and beet sugar, this beverage is smoother and cleaner than its high fructose corn syrup counterpart, allowing you to actually notice those "23 Flavors" that the company is always bragging about.

Here at BevReview.com, we were sad to hear the news that Dom DeLuise passed away on May 5. He was a great pitchman for Dr Pepper in the 1981 movie, Cannonball Run. Watch the clip!
