Pepsi with Real Sugar
Pepsi Throwback tastes exactly how you'd hope it would taste—like Pepsi, except a little less sticky sweet (due to the sweetener change, I'm guessing). Sadly, it's only supposed to be available for a limited time so I'll be stocking up now (read: buying the twelve cans that I drink per annum).
Pepsi Natural does not taste exactly like you'd expect (if you're expecting regular Pepsi, that is) but it is excellent in its own right: less fizzy, smoother and less acidic mouthfeel, with some hints of apple and what I'm assuming is genuine cola nut. In the initial taste, I also thought I detected a hint of the familiar yet unclassifiable Lipton instant tea mix that we drank gallons of in the Wisconsin summers of my youth but maybe that was just my memory carrying me off to simpler times.
