I'm a big fan of Izze - which can be purchased at...you guessed it, Starbucks. Grapefruit and Blackberry are quite nice. I just might buy myself an Izze tee. Yes. I am the quintessential consumer of crap.
I like the grapefruit Izze. I had a new drink when I was in New York City that I loved - Grown Up Soda. Alas = I can't get it here. http://drinkgus.com/
I had the cranberry lime so I can't vouch for the grapefruit. I'm thinking that grpaefruit probably needs the extra sugar. I find lots of other fruit sodas too sweet and so that is why I liked the GUS.
I almost succombed to grocery store marketing yesterday because of this post. I went to our supermarket which has a special on Friday for a chicken dinner, side and bread for $5.50. Of course they are hoping you make up for the discount in buying other things. They had a 4 pack of Izze for $5.99. I had it in my basket and I put it back. I may buy it another time but I just couldn't bring myself to negate the dinner savings with the Izze purchase.
That's funny Susan. The same day I bought the GUS, I bought a 4 pack of Izze - blueberry (have yet to try it). Looks like you have better self control than me.

Inspired by Susan (and in spite of cool hand luke), we are drinking a grapefruit GUS right now.
I speak only for myself when I say that I need a little more sugar.
Will's still happily drinking though, so you may have a convert, Susan.

"in spite of cool hand luke" - I tend to hear some variation on this quite a bit.
