Talk:Pepsi Blue

message: There's some connection between Pepsi Blue and astroturfing / viral marketing.  It's frequently used as an insult on link blogs (ie http://www.metafilter.com).  Can somebody explain this aspect?

message: I read that there are other drinks out there that imitate the taste of PB. What are they?

replies: text: Safeway sells a clone called "Blue Razz Blast" Soda. As far as I know, they do have this in all Safeway affiliated stores. I will need to check if they are still distributing this brand, but they were definitely selling this in 2005. Sorry for not citing. Please bring back PB. ~sunbun 05:02, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  What are the name of the other drinks? 

message: Before this product was released, my mother had a conversation with a Pepsi distributor, and he stated that a "Code Blue Mountain Dew" would be released, similar in branding to then-recently released Code Red Mountain Dew.  Would there be any resources that could verify that the Code Blue rumor would eventually turn out to be Pepsi Blue?  It would be something to note in this article, if indeed it can be verified.

thread_title:  The rumor of Code Blue Mountain Dew 

message: I heard that Pepsi Blue's discontinuation was due to a controversy involving a kid faking suicide by drinking Pepsi Blue from a bottle of cleaning fluid. The bottle had been previously cleaned out, of course, but it got people's attention enough to realize that Pepsi Blue looked similar to typical household cleaners.

thread_title: Controversy

message: I'd like to see if any former Pepsi workers can substantiate this claim, I believe Pepsi Blue was reborn under the Blue Voltage MD guise.  Voltage tastes identical to Pepsi Blue, just a bit more zip with the Ginseng that's added.  I think Pepsi just recycled the flavor.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.6.227.81 (talk) 04:53, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: My friend *LOVES* Pepsi Blue, and I must admit, I find it quite tasty myself. My friend is a strage person and buys 12-packs of Pepsi Blue on ebay (?!) for $30-$50. I told his parents to consider therapy for him.
Hah, I like how the article compares the taste to a 7-11 Slurpee. There are regular Pepsi flavoured Slurpees, ironically enough. Not to mention the countless other flavours that taste nothing like Pepsi Blue. Gregmitch 23:44, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

message: I went to a CFL football game just before it was discontinued, and they had palettes of 2L bottles of pepsi blue around on the stadium concourses.  They were just letting people take as much as they could carry.  I STILL don't think they got rid of it all.  hah. 142.59.195.50 06:07, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Complete flop 

message: After reading something above, I decided to try making blue pepsi but I didn't want to use something for babies. So here is how to make blue pepsi, Or how to get a taste similar to it.
You will need:
Mountain dew (One can is enough)
1 Packet of Berry blue kool aid (Or more depending on how much you are making)
A cup
A spoon (Or something to stir the soda)
OK, Here is what to do:
Step 1: Pour the mountain dew into the cup. 
Step 2: Put a little bit of the kool aid powder into the mountain dew and stir. Experiment with how much you put in, However I have been making it since November 11th 2007 and, As of December third 2007 I have not used up one packet of Kool aid.
Step 3: Let the soda sit for 2 to 5 minutes.
Step 4: (Optional) Add blue food coloring and stir for a dark blue color.
If you do not have the desired flavor (Like if it is too strong or too weak) Experiment with this method until you get the flavor you want, And enjoy!
Note: You may be able to get the flavor by using a regular pepsi instead of mountain dew but I have not tried using pepsi yet.

message: while it is off the market, it should be brought back as a limited time product. i hate this soda's guts, but it has lots of fans. i say britney spears cursed it by advertising for it. this soda should be brought back within the next 1-3 years tops. coem on pepsi, don't be stupid. that is why coke has pretty much owned you since your company was born, except for that crappy *** new coke!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikifan10 (talk • contribs) 00:47, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

message: Around 2002-03-ish in Australia, there was a Blue Pepsi released, but it tasted exactly like ginger beer as opposed to the berry suggested here. Can anyone shed some light on this? 124.187.235.2 (talk) 02:24, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

message: There seems to be some buzz about it coming back for summer 2021, but the references seem pretty unsubstantiated at this time, since every single reference goes back to a single Reddit post. --~ฅ(ↀωↀ=)neko-channyan 16:02, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
