I am a cola fiend - cola drinks, cola gummies, even cola chewing gum -I love the tangy-sweet, mildly chocolate-like flavor. With so many commercial colas on the market, it’s refreshing to find one with home-brew feel, zippy flavor and real Kola Nut.

Enter Cricket (in regular made with cane sugar and diet with Splenda). Cricket is a sweetened infusion of green tea and kola nut that is billed as ‘Happiness in a bottle.’ The taste is sur[risingly fresh and gives a kick similar to a hefty square of chocolate.

Interestingly the soda’s website lays claim to “Lots of doctors, writers and researchers” who think that Cricket may be good for aiding in weight loss, reducing cavities and bad breath, easing digestion and much more.
