Moxie Soda (12 - 12oz Diet Moxie Cans)

It took a while to get here but worth the wait.

This past fall, the family visited Maine. The little lobster shack recommended I try a local soda called Moxie. It’s really true… You either love this stuff, or you run to the sink! Me? When I got home, I ordered a couple dozen cans. If you have no idea what this tastes like, it’s kind of a cross between root beer and Dr. Pepper with a slight spice that I can’t place. Anyway, I have a new favorite soda, but it gets a bit pricey when it has to be shipped down from Maine!

I had never heard of Moxie soda before until a few months ago when I saw it featured on a television show, I think it was on modern marvels. In any event, I decided to Google it and found that they carry the regular, non-diet version of this soft drink at BevMo stores. Since there's bevmo's in my town, I checked and they had it in stock so I tried a bottle of the regular version made with real cane sugar. It was delicious, however, I prefer diet soft drinks for a number of reasons. So I decided to go online and ordered a box of the diet moxie sodas. It took a while to get here since it shipped from a marketplace seller located across the country on the east coast. However, when the cans arrived, they were in good shape and the flavor was delicious, comparable to the full sugar one that I had tried from my local bevmo. Note that they also sell non diet Moxie sodas by the cans, but after reading some reviews and doing some research I determined that those canned Moxie sodas contain high fructose corn syrup and do not taste the same as the original bottled ones or my favorite diet Moxie in the can. As for the flavor, it's somewhere between root beer and ginger ale, a unique and refreshing flavor that I enjoy. I plan to continue ordering this product. Note that a second case that I ordered arrived in good condition but was cut in half and repackaged into a standard size box for shipping purposes. This is fine since the cans arrived in good shape, but doesn't make for the best presentation in the event you are trying to send this as a gift to impress somebody. But I think they'll be impressed with just receiving the sodas in good condition!

My husband loved it ❤️

Unless you live in Maine and can get Moxie in a store, you are forced to pay through the nose over the internet. Sadly, the flavor suffers greatly while the cost soars. I drank a couple then tossed the rest as it tasted more like stale medicine than the good old Moxie I loved as a kid.

It was a present for my husband who loves weird flavored stuff. He loved it.

If you like the taste it's a great thirst quencher. Now the price for a soft drink is quite dear. Wish I could find it more locally.

Was happy to find this online. New England staple.
