It's all over for Mountain Dew...

I know this is one of the ads that has been on our site (that I hope all of you have been clicking 1000 times a day), but sweet merciful crap I just had to look at this because it looked so tempting… I’m not selling out I swear!
No, that’s not an illusion (well… it might be, but I’m hoping it’s not). That’s a link to a Dungeons and Dragons series “Spellcasting Soda” from Jones!!! I know, I know, I know… this is just a clever marketing ploy to get D&D players to buy soda. But I'm buying some because I’m easily swayed by the media and pretty colors.
Sneak Attack! Dwarven Draught! Eldritch Blast! And my personal favorite, Potion of Healing (is this one alcoholic?). This is clearly full of WIN. So here’s my question to all of you, what D&D related flavor would you include if you could? I think mine would be a crystal-clear soda called “Turn Undead” that makes you burp holy fire, or a Tylenol PM laced frothy soda called “Goodnight Tincture”
Now I just need to figure out how we’re going to build it into our weekly gaming sessions… Hmmmm.
I hope that if they have a version of Magic Missile, it doesn't involve a mix with syrup of ipecac.
I don't feel like casting THOSE kinds of missiles.
I'm totally going to start referring to NyQuil as “Goodnight Tincture”
Isn't there also an Earthbound one that won a contest or something? Drinking the pure essence of that game would be the cure to cancer probably.
There was a contest where people submitted photo for soem new flavor of Jones soda. But I've never heard of it being seen in the wild. This'd be your best source on that story.
How I loved the taste of mountain dew. It blow off my thirst. It's been 3 decades since Mt St Helens erupted, leaving behind a billion dollars in damage. The Mt. St. Helens eruption caused the deaths of 57 individuals and materials ejected by the blast distributed over 20 miles.
