Pepsi Jazz

Do you know one of the reasons why I enjoy collecting soda cans?  It's because they are so quick and limited.  The often exist for only a brief moment in time before they are discontinued or designed differently. Also, since I rarely had soda as a child, I find as an adult I really appreciate it when I have it to drink. Consider the cans below, which sadly, I don't have in my collection.


These are discontinued Pepsi sodas.  They definitely seem exotic now.  I remember buying them and drinking them with my friend in his apartment playing Texas Hold 'em.  Not a grand memory, but a nice one. And I associate the memory with these cans.

These nifty cans only lasted from 2006 - 2009.  Then they went kaput. So sad.  They came in Black Cherry French Vanilla, Caramel Cream, and Strawberries and Cream. One reviewer thought the Caramel one was best. I was prone to agree.

RC Cola

I got a new soda can over the weekend.  It's been one I've been meaning to collect.  I finally got it because my friend who was visiting loves this cola more than Pepsi and Coke, so he bought a 12 pack for our fridge. It's Royal Crown Cola, made by the same people who bring us Dr. Pepper.
