It’s just the latest in a long line of experimental, conceptual Coke flavours. Honestly, it’s something I’ve been saying for years; stop being constrained by imitating “real” flavours and let the flavour scientists loose, let 'em go nuts.
So far they’ve done:
Space (I liked that, hints of toasted carmel and raspberries)
Dream (Also good, a little bubblegummy, a little cotton candy-y, a little mangolike)
Transformation (Awful, like coke with coconut oil and a hint of turpentine)
Byte (Just decent, kind of indescribable)
Pixel (I never got to try it, it was US only, but by all descriptions it wasn’t great)
Movement (A bit like theatre butter and cinnamon, it was okay but wasn’t a fan)
And now AI flavour. I plan to give it a shot, but I don’t expect much after their last two Tech-y flavours were eh.
You’re totally right, everyone knows that blue has been one of the best flavors for a long time, yet most companies are scared because blue “isn’t real”.
Where do you get all these Coca Cola flavours? I’m in Germany and have only ever seen vanilla, lemon, cherry and life (next to the default, light and zero).
I get them at my normal grocery store (in Canada). They’re limited time, they rotate in and out, so maybe you just missed them, or maybe they’re an NA thing.
I tried the XP flavored coke that is marketed towards gamers and I couldn’t really tell a difference between it and Coca-Cola Classic™. Maybe it has a slightly bit more licoricish flavor? I couldn’t tell because I was too busy leveling up with all of the XP I was gaining while drinking it.
Mountain Dew seems to have been leaning into that, and it’s mostly been good. I don’t know what their latest Halloween mystery flavor is supposed to be. It’s certainly nothing natural. But I like it.
I loved Starlight and dream. Both were the kinda things that I wouldn’t want every drink to be like, but wow were they cool to try out and I’d absolutely try any experimental flavours I see because of that.
I wasn’t aware of most of the others though. I think these can be harder to find in some places. Most of the ones I’ve had were from 7-11s or similar convenience stores, but I don’t usually even go to such places.
I’ve tried most of those. The first one, which was called starlight in the states, was the best one so far. The others haven’t been as good. The new AI one is probably the one I’ve liked the most since starlight.

how can blue be real if blueberries arent real

Dream sounds pretty fire tbh.
No, Fire TBH tasted like ashes and hose water.

Baja Blast is fucking awesome.
I think it’s Airheads.
I really think they should bring back Starlight, possibly outside the Coke brand. To me, it tasted like graham cracker.

“mmmm, tastes like real AI!”

I always try the other flavors, but can’t say I’ve liked any of them. The AI one was probably the worst of them though.

I mean, that SOUNDS kinda terrible.
…just the kind of flavor that a computer would enjoy though. Hmmmmmm…
