9. Fruit Punch (Tutifruti)

Weird aftertaste. Not especially fruity. Red trash, basically.

8. Lime (Limón)

Despite the bright color, this one tastes like an off-brand Sprite — one lacking the bite or flavor of the original. In other words, it likely wouldn’t inspire Drake to so thoroughly quench his thirst that it causes his body to momentarily deconstruct like a cyborg.

7. Hibiscus (Jamaica)

A great choice for those without a sweet tooth — but you may feel like you’re drinking carbonated herbal tea. Not for everyone, mon.

6. Strawberry (Fresa)

Better than Fruit Punch, but not quite up to Big Red in the redpop canon. You probably wouldn’t throw it out of a Zoom meeting, but you’d leave it on mute.

5. Tamarind (Tamarindo)
