Let's see your best "Beverly" pics...

Cmon, you KNOW you have pics of it..
Either you, or someone in your party, or strangers tasting the "Beverly" cola at Club Cool in EPCOT.
I know that *I* always tell people they just HAVE to try it! haha I love the reactions.. Does ANYONE like this stuff??

This last trip, I had my poor brother taste each cola, and I snapped a pic of each reaction...

Here is "Beverly" from Italy!

Teeheee! My favorite day at Disney was when I told Dave that Beverly was awesome and he should try it. I am such a mean wife.

These are great!

What is Beverly? (There's always one in every crowd, isn't there? Wink I've seen the attraction, but not being a bid soda drinker, I've never gone in.)

You've outed me! I'm here to make you all feel vastly superior! Shoot, and I thought I was wearing my cover well. waiting

Um, k...so why would you drink it if it's icky? Is it the "ooh, this milk is bad. Taste it" syndrome?

I really think that people have very many different tastes in life, and Beverly is a taste that appeals to only a small fraction of the population of this globe. It is an Italian beverage that is meant to be an aperitif (I hope I spelled that right) to cleanse the palate between courses of a meal. I think it accomplishes this by numbing the taste buds. I think that while most people can't stand it, some people don't mind it and can drink it freely, me being one of those. Of course I am one that loves Moxie, and drinks it regularly. Of course that also is an acquired taste.

Well...all you had to do is say so! Smile Aperitif, but non-alcoholic, I assume? You say "Italian" and "aperitif" and I immediately think Campari, which I love. So I may have to try this on my next swing through Epcot.

Justcar. I for one have never tasted Italian sodas, so I can't answer that question.

Bahahaha! You sound like DD! And DH, come to think of it. I'm always working with them to explain, Yes, Dears, you may not like it, but that doesn't make it gross..."

Btw, Campari is bitter Smile

I heart you, Bella.

Italian soda is basically tonic water with syrup.Many flavours of syrup but it's usually mixed infront of you.

Does anyone thing Disney/Cocoa-Cola are having a laugh with us on this one?

I asked a friend with lots of Italian relatives who has visited Italy many times about "Beverly" and she'd never heard of it. Co-incidentaly, her name is Beverley.

I'm going to have to bring someone who hasn't had it to get some pics of it. Although I think they might become suspicious when I say "Try this" and then whip out my camera!
