frostie on my mind

my fav soda ever


this soda has been on my mind ever since i went with m.v.f. to galco's soda pop shop. if you haven't been there, you have to GO! this shop is classic LA at it's best.

this place sells soda pop, wine, beer, candy and they have a simple deli in the back. i have been told that their sandwiches are amazing. this place sells many sodas that you can't really find anywhere else. i felt like a kid in a candy store. matt recommended this one pop to me and i didn't really dig it at first for the fact that it's blue. i have a weird thing for anything that's not suppose to be blue, purple or a funky color. it took me a long time to eat blue m&ms. i know it's only food coloring, but still...it took awhile ok? :P

i didn't think that this blue soda was going to knock my socks off. i bought one, along with the list below....

1 dr pepper made with real sugar, like in the ol' days

1 moxie cherry cola (too much for my taste)

1 curiousity cola - best cola i ever tasted in my life!!!

fentiman's cola

1 plantation style mint julep soda - this was crazy...didn't love it...but it was pretty sweet. along with m.v.f. joking around, saying that he's been picking cotton all day and loved his plantation style mint julep soda. heh. :)

minty


both m.v.f. and me left the soda pop shop like bandits with a bunch of soda pop. before we left, he insisted for me to try the blue cream soda. even though i was making fun of it's blue factor, since i never did have any blue soda at all in my life and felt 12 years old for a minute...i tried the frostie blue cream soda....

right with the first sip, i knew i was having the best cream soda in my life. everything about it was just right. the cream flavor, the crisp taste because it was in a glass bottle. it was the shit and i realized that i can really love more than one thing. :) i've been thinking about this soda for two weeks now i can't get it out of my head. i am driving myself crazy and i can't drink any other cream soda without frostie lingering in my mind.

we will meet again frostie. i can't wait to have you again. :)
