Strawberry can either be a good or bad flavor. I say this because just like cherry, the flavor can very quickly taste like medicine in its artificial form. It can become very overpowering and it gets even worse when combined with flavors like kiwi.
Drinks You Can Pick Up At The Store
Kimura Ramune Strawberry Flavor
This drink had a berry like flavor even though it was mostly bland. If I was wanting a ramune type drink I may buy this flavor again if I didn't have a choice of a better flavor/brand. Tried March 2023.
Strawberry Flavored Water (Clear American)
It did not taste like medicine like I expected it two. There was a slight bitter flavor that seems to impact a lot of the different flavors of Clear American water. I would drink this water again if I didn't have different options in flavors. This wouldn't be a hard no like some other flavors, but more of a limited use.
Strawberry Daiquiri Flavored Water (Clear American)
This did not taste like any strawberry daiquiri I have ever had. At the same time even though I would not call the flavor specifically strawberry (it was still berry like), I would say that it was still good. The flavor was not over powering or taste like medicine even though it was an artificial flavor.
Jarritos Strawberry
A basic strawberry soda. Nothing really stood out good or bad. I found this at a Mexican restaurant, but you can find these nearly anywhere. I've even seen these at the Asian markets. Tried January 2023.
Frostie Strawberry Soda
Tasted just like a strawberry Fanta for the most part. Nothing special, but still yummy.
Minute Maid Aguas Frescas Strawberry
I found this drink at a Dollar Tree and I thought for $1.25 I would give it a try since that's cheaper then a lot of the other drinks I try. The flavor was watered down, but at the same time it was still good. I could see this being a good drink light drink in the summer. I would get this again.
Bang Delsh Strawberry Kiss
This delsh was not good. Even though it was not salty like some energy drinks it had the other problem that many of them have, the flavor tasted like medicine. It was a very artificial strawberry flavor and it left a really bad after taste. The when you got to the bottom there was grit in the last bit. I would recommend avoiding this energy drink. Lots of different stores carry this brand.
Yogur de Savila Strawberry
I found this drink at Mmart in Aurora. It was actually really good. The flavor was smooth, light, and refreshing. I've tried other similar drinks where the flavor was not good so this one surprised me. I'd get this one again.
Drinks At Restaurants
Strawberry Boba Smoothie (Viet's)
This drink was like drinking strawberry syrup, it had that much sugar in it and the ice in it did not help cut the thickness even after it melted. It actually reminded me of those frozen daiquiri drinks at the grocery store where you are supposed to add water and ice. They just didn't add the water. It was good, but it took me a long time to drink due to how sweet it was.
Strawberry Fruit Tea (Presotea)
The only thing strawberry about this drink was there were strawberry pieces in the bottom that gave you a little flavor as you sucked them up. The rest of the drink just tasted like fruit punch in a way with no distinctive strawberry flavor. Plus it had hot bobas which was just weird. Both of the drinks we tried from Presotea were not that good, so not only would I not get this drink again but it will be a long time before I go back if I go back.
Strawberry Lemonade (Nordstrom eBar)
A sour punch in the face. It could use a lot more sweetener to balance it out. My face went through all of the sour looks. It took me drinking about half of it before my mouth adapted. This is the first drink that I have tried there that I wouldn't get again.
Strawberry Coconut Ice (Sharetea)
This was a drink in their Coconut Dreamland Series. You could choose to also have their crystal bobas or not. I found this drink to be way too strong on the coconut side and it overpowered the strawberry. They would have needed to double the strawberry flavor to give it a chance to compete with the coconut. If you like coconut this could be a good drink for you, but if you are wanting strawberry you would need to pick another drink.
