Just got back from Sam's.

 

There was a skid of Fresca at an endcap.

 

Bought a case. I honestly do not remember what it tasted like. But I do remember working with a woman and that is the only soda that she drank.

Hope I like it since I bought a case.

It was a novelty when first introduced.  I remember drinking so much of it, I got sick of it, and one day said I'd never drink another.  And I haven't. 

 

Bottoms up to you @drizzellla .  Sounds like you'll be drinking a lot of it.

My DIL has been drinking it for several years. She also likes to pair it with tequila, for a sort of margarita.  Fresca was my mom's favorite soda back in the 70's. She called it "Fresco." She never could remember the correct name. Hahaha!

Great blast from the past!

 

I always drank Fresca - delicious and refreshing.

I bought the orginal citrus in 12oz cans at Walmart, mixed it with Pure cranberry juice...there's original citrus, black cherry & peach. Has anybody tried the black cherry & peach?

Fresca was the only soda my grandparents drank.

I loved Fresca, but stopped drinking it backing 2009. I've been on Lipitor since then and should avoid grapefruit juice. 🙁

@PA Mom-mom  My Mom loved it too.  That and Tab were her favorites.

I remember drinking it back in the late 60's I think. I remember it was a salty grapefruit tasting drink. Don't think I would drink it now. Tab was awful.

I didn't know it ever left. I see it all the time at grocery stores.  Maybe it's just new to Sam's?
