Sodas of America - Malta

This shit is everywhere in Puerto Rico, it's more common than Coke. Apparently it's like that all over the Caribbean. It tastes like carbonated malted milk. It's named after India, not sure if it's from there. If it is they should keep it there. India has a bad habit of exporting shit that nobody else in the world wants. If this soda was a beer it would be Red Stripe.

Rating: It's terrible, don't waste your time.

This is owned by Coca Cola. There's an urban legend about Thumbs Up A/B testing vs various coke products being so overwhelmingly lopsided, that Coke decided it should be we be sold in western markets

lol, I've had this, it's yet another tiger malt (Barbados) like thing from the Carribean. That one is Puerto Rican. It has nothing to do with India other than some likely colonial link (eg it's based loosely on what kind of shit colonials drank like IPAs)

I havent had it in about a decade but it was kind of just like much more spiced coke just significNtly stronger coke flavour with bita of cinammon, vanilla, sarsaparilla etc. Plus glass bottle and novelty factor of a pop "you probably haven't heard of" make it awesome.


I don't ingest liquid sugar but the cooking area im actually much much MUCH stronger than most people is understanding different types of sugars and caramelization, etc. I could make a really awesome pop but i cant stand drinking more than a sip a week of sugar liquid

Those malt drinks take some getting used to but i can enjoy yhem now. Maltose' perceived sweetness is much lower sucrose or fructose, though those things always feel chokingly sweet maybe they dont balance it out with acids.

Pop is gross ugg
