What Does Nuka Cola Taste Like?

[Mac Tonight]

Always wondered this. I'll assume it's like Coca Cola. I'm a feel sad if it's Dr. Pepper because I dislike that drink, but it's my sister's and mother's favorite.

My favroite drink is AriZona Green tea.

My favorite drink is Diet Coke. (My Mum been havin' me drink it since I was 4 or 5, one of the many reasons I like Diet Coke more then normal coke).

You don't know that, maybe they have some type of formula in the drink that never allows it to go flat.

It is all flat, but even so being flat doesn't reduce flavour just loss of fizz.

Before anybody says it tastes like radiation, doesn't warmin' something up in the microwave give stuff radiation as well? In short, radiation taste like nothin'.

[Yhwach]

It can taste "Irradiated" which is definitely what it does coupled with the ingredients they put in there.
If you want to get an idea of what it tastes like, Jones Soda made their own interpretation after working with Bethesda before the release of Fallout 4.
(Not accurate just something to go off of)

Microwaves are nearly harmless, only prolonged exposure will affect a human, and the radiation doesn't get absorbed into the food. The Radiation in fallout is Gamma radiation, which is harmful even in smaller quantities.

I have no idea what Gamma radiation does to food ingredients, but I do know the alcoholic Nuka Cola from the raider DLC likely isn't much different. An actual US nuclear test showed alcohol is safe to drink and no alcoholic drinks add radiation.

You should probably look at the OTHER colas too to get an idea of what it might taste like. For example, Nuka Cola Quartz, and Victory. Similar to Coke's Splenda soda, Coke life, or any other flavorings.

I know Sunset Sarsaparilla tastes like Root Beer, and Vim tastes like Moxie, something I wanna try.

I have thought about ordering some of the Sarsaparilla I see on Amazon. When I was playing FONV. Are there different kinds? Do you think the Sioux City brand on Amazon would be like the one in FONV? Any better place to order?

[Moon Rabbit]

I figure it would taste like Classic Coke. But it uses 17 fruits, so probably a fruit punch coke? The taste of passion fruit is enough that when removed during the passion fruit famine of 2044, the change was noticable. (I'm serious)

I remember seeing a video of someone taste-testing war rations, and describing a fruit bar (from around WW2) as the best one he'd ever had. For all we know, "maturing" for 200 years might transform the original Nuka Cola into something magically delicious.

By the sound of refilling Nuka-modified thirst zapper, I think we can assume they're not going flat.

I imagine it tastes like a mixture between Pepsi and Coca cola since the inventor of nuka cola is actually a nod to both John Pemberton (Inventor of Coca Cola) and Caleb Bradham (Inventor of Pepsi) (John-Caleb Bradberton)
