Cheerwine soda: A cherry cola reminiscent of Dr Pepper. Thick syrupy flavor. 2.5/5.0

Cheng Kang Rare Soybean Drink: I'm not sure what makes it rare, but I recently discovered that Asian grocery stores stock several brands of "rare soybean" soymilk. This one is from Taiwan, and I purchased it at Hong Kong Supermarket in Chinatown. I thought the bean flavor of the drink was very familiar and overall ok, but it was heavily sweetened, so I wouldn't get it again. 2.5/5.0

Chersi Duchesse Pear soda: Despite the Russian labeling, this fizzy beverage is made in the US. Oddly, the soda had a bubblegum-flavored aftertaste, though the initial taste was faintly pear-like. Sugary, but not unexpectedly so (38g per bottle). Color-wise, the soda is copper-toned, like a dark ginger ale. 2.5/5.0

Chi Forest Lychee Fizzy Sparkling Water: This zero sugar, zero calorie drink is sweetened with sucralose, so it still tastes sweet despite not having sugar. The lychee fizzy was my favorite as it's a less common flavor typically found in grocery stores but still captures the spirit of the asian fruit. It reminds me of a less intense version of lychee jelly cups I had as a kid. A good option for people looking for fizzy, fruity 0 calorie drink. 3.5/5.0

Chi Forest Grape Delight Sparkling Water: Grape soda was one of my favorite flavors growing up, and I found this fizzy grape drink to be a less guilt-inducing alternative. It's refreshing and lightly carbonated, without any calories or sugar. Like other Chi Forest drinks, it's completely clear and looks like sparkling water, but has a concentrated fruit flavor. 3.5/5.0

Chi Forest White Peach Sparkling Water: This was the third flavor of Chi Forest drinks I was able to try, which are zero calorie and zero sugar drinks. The white peach flavor is especially refreshing in the summer heat, though it does have a sort of candy peach flavor to it. 3.0/5.0
