It was hard to fall asleep due to my ignorance of ingredients. Should have gotten Sprite.

I have a hard time finding enough caffeine sometimes. My Diet Coke intake has me craving it all the time.

No you should have gone with Sun Drop. And then not spelt at all

Real talk: how could you not think that Coke’s answer to Mountain Dew isn’t similarly caffeinated?

This is also as good an excuse as any to remind everyone that Tom Cruise’s character in Days of Thunder is named Cole Trickle.

Espresso. I love the way it tastes but my body just can’t handle the caffeine anymore. I get all shaky and sweaty and grind me teeth.

There was a nascar driver named Richard (Dick) Trickle.

Never really thought about (come to think of it, it’s been years since I had a MY).

Now, I can’t help but be annoyed at the name. Who in their right mind would attach the word “mellow” (or any spelling variation thereof) to a caffeinated drink? Hell, it shouldn’t even be fizzy!

Everyone should be aware of the ubiquitous Disappointment Drinks from their childhood. “Do you have Dr. Pepper?” “We have Mr. Pibb..” (also: Coke/Pepsi, Mountain Dew/Mello Yello. RC Cola and Kountry Mist yell at me from somewhere off in the distance.)
