Weirdest drink flavours?

From Aldi - Ballycastle Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter flavour Country Cream. As it seems to have been concocted in time for Halloween, I'll leave it for the ghouls.

Doesn't sound too bad, certainly better than the Oreo flavoured coke I tried yesterday!

Eek! A mixture of the two could be interesting

Dandelion & Burdock

Christmas Pudding & Clotted Cream Imperial Stout (13% ABV too!)

Coke did a few weird ones in limited editions recently like Mystery World and Movement... the Oreo one wasnt too bad to me. 

If you google the subject the US takes the biscuit though with things like roast turkey and gravy or pickle juice soda

My wife brought some home yesterday for our 12 year old son who loves both Oreos and Coke, and will eat anything as long as it is sweet... and even he turned his nose up at it. 

Tastes a bit like cream soda, which is an acquired taste in itself. Certainly not what you would use to quench a thirst on a hot summers day! 

My personal hate is root beer, no idea how the Americans can stomach it. "Oh, I'd really like a can of weak coke with half a teaspoon of Germolene antiseptic ointment stirred into it please!

You have no taste Root beer is the best

Tomato flavoured lemonade(?). At least thats what the bottle pictures seemed to suggest.

It was Japan and I wasn't that thirsty to risk trying it.

Had coffee flavoured cola in the Czech Republic years ago which was nice.

Japan has a lot of funky stuff, I had rice cola there last year (yes, it's white).

To be fair though, not too bad!

Yes, 23 flavours of kit kat found none of which are available in the UK.

One flavour is apple pie which tastes like an apple flavoured scented candle. I recommend eating the former but not the latter.

A modern looking Chinese supermarket has opened up near us, rather than those aimed at catering or the slightly concerning oversized corner shops. Haven't explored their drinks aisle to be honest but the crisp flavours are certainly interesting especially as many of them are actually walkers/lays

My wife basically filled up her hand luggage with different flavour kitkats !  

I remember stereotypically Japanese flavours like matcha, sakura or sweet potato, but I also remember seeing many tea ones which I'd say were likely inspired by British culture, yet not sold in Britain

We didn't see apple pie though, though we only found maybe 12 different flavours (there were a couple more but there was clearly a big element of tourist tax on them, my fault for shipping for them in dotonbori!
