I love ASPEN. It was such a sweet taste!
I was wondering if you could tell me who bottled aspen soda, I loved it.
I remember when Aspen soda came out, I loved the taste of it. Too bad it didn't make it big with the other sodas.
This site helped me on a school prodject!
Thanks for all your guyes hard work in making this site workable
I got an A PLUS on my prodject and it was because of this site!
~THANKS~
There is another apple flavored soda out there, it is a close second to Aspen. You can find it in most Hispanic grocery stores..it is called Manzana Sol.
I loved Aspen when I was a kid and, to my excitement, recently found a similar soda at the Dollar Tree store. It's called Casera. I also loved a cracker called Drumsticks. Anyone remember these? They were shaped like little chicken drumsticks and had a really unique flavor I haven't found since then.
Aspen was marketed by pepsi co in 1978 as a test falvor, but it never took off. it was a very clean crisp taste. My favorite at the time.
Aspen was fantastic! I loved this soda alot as a kid. Nowadays, you can find Manzana Mia, a very close soda- in Hispanic grocers. Loved the can for Aspen, very memorable!
there is a petition to bring this soda back. If you loved it like I did, go help bring it back..
search under "bring aspen soda back"
I would like to try aspen!
I miss Aspen.
i vaguely recall a commercial for it with a nordic looking women dressed in all white winter garb being pulled in a sleigh by a white horse.very 70's.no one else remembers it tho,am i nuts?it was snowing too.
Man oh man! Aspen was the drink to have. What happened or why they puulled it I have no idea but I really miss it. I stil havent found anything vaguely as good.
ASPEN WAS MADE BY PEPSI AND ACCORDING TO THEIR HEAD OFFICE THE LISCENCE AGREEMENT WITH THE PEOPLE OR PERSON THAT DEVELOPED THE RECIPE EXPIRED AND THEY CHOSE NOT TO RENEW IT WHAT A HUGE MISTAKE ... ONLY THING CLOSE IS THE JONES GREEN APPLE BUT STILL NOT AS GOOD
I loved Aspen it was the best soft drink I can remember. I don't understand why if many customers loved it was removed from the market. Whatever drink pepsi replaced it with is no where in comparison to ASPEN. Please sign the petition to brink it back.
I remember that commercial too Andy! So nostalgic!
Aspen was the most refreshing soda I think I've ever had! I've signed the petition (mentioned above in kipxo's comments) and truly hope Pepsi brings it back one day! When I looked at the can on this website, I could almost taste the cool and thirst-quenching taste of Aspen! I'm glad there are others who remember it too! :O)
Aspen was awesome! The best soda I have ever tasted. I still think about that soda all the time. Aspen needs to and has to come back.
Aspen was the best soda out on the market and I still think about the taste. Nothing like it before or since. They seriously need to bring it back!!!!! I hadn't realized how long ago they stopped making it. Wow!!! 27 years ago and I still crave it!!
Aspen soda was even sold "on tap" at the "new" Wendy's in Downey.....don't ask what year that was!!?? (1979?)
Aspen was the best soda - I still think of it often. Please bring it back - I'll sign the petition, too.
Like Aspen?...well you havn't tried Apple Soda till you've tried Apple Beer.
Here is a link to a site that sells hard to find sodas.
