Four Loko Blueberry Lemonade XXX
Today’s mistake: Four Loko Blueberry Lemonade XXX. Did Four Loko really need to release a limited edition can?
Four Loko Blueberry Lemonade XXX
12.0% alcohol by volume
23.5 ounce can
Price: $3.50
Man, I was on a roll. I hadn’t even touched a Four Loko in a month and a half. Then I see this tower of crap in the store and buy it. I promise it’s only because it says “limited edition” on the can. Shouldn’t the XXX mean it’s stronger than vanilla Four Loko? I was hoping it’d be 20% alcohol so I could go temporarily blind. SCIENCE TIME!
Guess which one is Four Loko and which is a noxious chemical floor cleaner? Okay, I probably should have put the floor cleaner in a glass. Anyway, my point is this: you could fill up that glass with the floor cleaner and pour that Four Loko into the bottle and it wouldn’t look much different. That’s not even premium floor cleaner. That’s dollar store floor cleaner. Congrats Four Loko. Your products look like bargain brand cleanser. Quick tangent: the dollar store is a pretty miserable place, but you really can’t beat it for cleaning products. That purple stuff is pretty much sulfuric acid. It completely annihilates anything and everything in its path. I also buy oven cleaner there, and, I kid you not, the can suggests that you leave your home for up to an hour after use. I don’t do this, mostly because I don’t care, but I did once catch a whiff of the oven cleaner. I lost MILLIONS of brain cells. Don’t mess with oven cleaner.
As you can see, I put this in my frosty mug, which wasn’t frosty.
Color
You can see for yourself up there. If you’ve ever had a Jones soda, it looks like the berry lemonade flavor. That’s a delicious soda, by the way.
Nose
I’m not sure how they do it, but every Four Loko smells the same: not unlike the dollar store oven cleaner.
Taste
This is essentially a combination of the”best” Four Loko flavor (blue raspberry) and the worst (lemonade). The result? Better than you’d think. This is decent. For Four Loko at least.
Final Verdict
My low expectations might have something to do with this, but I didn’t mind the blueberry lemonade Four Loko. It still sucks, but not as much as the others. No wonder it’s a limited edition. 2.5 out of a possible 5. Now watch this gentleman shotgun one of these.
