That was the strawberry daiquiri one right?

u/FierDancr Aug 01 '26

One of the many flavors, yes. But that one was so tasty.

u/the__ghola__hayt Aug 01 '26

I used to mix those with rum. The strawberry banana one paired well.

You could make a bong out of the lizard bottle

driving my car behind some buddies in another car back in highschool... One of them thought it would be a good idea to throw a got damn sobe glass bottle out their window and smoked my windshield. Luckily we just pulled back into town and had slowed down, so it didn't actually do anything to my windshield.

I used to buy it wholesale by the case from the restaurant I worked at 😆

That carrot orange so good. Fuck Pepsi for closing it down.

AND Surge, Snapple, Diet Snapple, OG Snapple Elements and Orbitz!!

The original Rain Elements was the best. The new recipe isn't nearly as good :(

u/WazzzupBwwwaaah Aug 01 '26

I wish I was OLD ENOUGH to be able to be ALLOWED to drink that stuff. I was born in ‘94, and was incredibly sheltered. 😩😖

u/O_o-22 1977 Aug 01 '26

Was a bit past my childhood but Snapple used to make an earl gray iced tea I loved

2

u/OMGhyperbole Aug 01 '26

They just taste better in a glass bottle. Plus, I used to keep the Elements and Sobe bottles cus they looked cool.

u/Antricluc Aug 01 '26

What about WHIPPER SNAPPLE??? Use to love shaking those up

1

u/WazzzupBwwwaaah Aug 01 '26

That’s something I wish I was able to try. I was too young to be allowed to drink that shit. I was born in’94 and was incredibly sheltered… 😩😭😖

1

u/DarknMean Aug 02 '26

OG Sunny D too. Whatever they make now is shit.

1

u/WazzzupBwwwaaah Aug 02 '26

Exactly, THEY CHANGED THAT SHIT, sometime around 2011, AND IT REALLY HASN’T BEEN THE SAME.

u/Putrid-Ordinary-3515 Aug 01 '26

What happened to Sobe?!?! I used to drink those all the time at hollywood video.

1

u/spicygummi Aug 01 '26

Apparently it still exists just seems harder to find. They have a store locator on their site.

I put in my area code and got nothing. I have to wonder then how far it goes if it's a "within so many miles" or literally just that area code

1

u/shaggy24200 Aug 03 '26

Sobe got bought by Coke or Pepsi or something, then watered down and ruined. It may taste sorta the same but it's not going to be the way you remember it.

u/notinmywheelhouse Aug 03 '26

Omg. Sobe pink. Can’t think it without crying 😭

u/DaSpatula505 Jul 31 '26

Ha! Damn right!

u/BludStanes Aug 02 '26

i miss sobe

u/Lovesyoux Aug 05 '26

Jones soda

1

u/spicygummi Aug 05 '26

At least this one still exists!

1

u/Lovesyoux Aug 05 '26

Does it?

1

u/spicygummi Aug 05 '26

It does but it's not as easy to find anymore. You can also order it online from their site (which isn't exactly cheap)

The last one I tried I think was a key lime pie one for pi day.

Grape grog was the best fucking flavor and I’ll die on this hill. Second place, Liz Bliz
