The internet told me that Aqua Blast was once an ampm exclusive. The internet also told me that this is now a Walmart exclusive. em>(Spotted by Robbie at Walmart.)
If you’re out shopping and see new products, snap a picture of them, and send them in via an email ([email protected]) with where you found them and “Spotted” in the subject line. Also, if you want to send in photos and are wondering if we’ve already covered something or if they’re new, don’t worry about it. Let us worry about it.
Did the internet happen to tell you what flavor it’s supposed to be? LOL
As in, the flavor profile?
The only thing the internet told me definitively is that Aqua Blast is “blue” and/or “green”. One might even call it aqua colored.
Other than that, there’s lots of speculation in terms of the taste of the flavor. The internet told me the speculation on the flavor uses terms like, tropical, melon, kiwi, guava, passion fruit, banana, etc.
Here’s a write-up from Instagram:
“Reviewing Gatorade tends to be a little more difficult, since the flavor blends can easily disguise themselves, so here’s what you need to know:
– Definitely a lighter overall flavor. I think I’m getting some Melon, but not that overwhelming kind luckily. Maybe some slight Mango too but it’s hard to say
– It’s extremely refreshing. This is a flavor you’d get on a hot summer day when you’re all tapped out. Or if you just started at a gym, I could see it being a go-to”
Interesting thanks. I don’t know when companies started going to abstract flavor names and not telling us exactly what it is supposed to be but it is a trend I haven’t been a fan of that’s for sure
This makes me think of The Office when Ryan is helping Michael clean out his car and he finds a sports drink. Michael asks what flavor it is and Ryan says blue. Michael then replies that blue isn’t a flavor, so Ryan replies that it’s “Blue Blast.” That about sums up how sports drinks describe their flavors…haha.
