Coca-Cola Freestyle

"Don't be skurred."

The first time I laid eyes on the Coca-Cola Freestyle Machine I felt like Indy discovering the Holy Grail. I was in awe, plastic cup (of Christ) in my hand, as I stood before the large, red beast and it's intimidating touch screen. Being a freestyle virgin I quickly found Classic Coca-Cola and filled up, not bothering to look deeply into my options.

My second experience with the big monster machine went much better as I took my time and looked at all the Coke options: cherry, orange, raspberry, vanilla and maybe one of the best flavors ever to exist, cherry vanilla. I spent a good 10 minutes taking small samples and testing each, finding most to be the flavor the name promised, but ended with cherry vanilla. My community has access to two of these machines in town and with the first being located in a burger joint, I would often drop by just to grab a large soda. It became a nightly obsession and I have since reigned in my consumption, but dayum Coke! This machine is brilliant.

No caption can describe the
 sheer joy of this sight

So many choices, so many combinations, it would be ludicrous to even try to name them. I've done the vanilla root beer/cherry coke half and half...oh, and they have Lime Fanta. Lime Fanta! Ok, I'm starting to babble. Just go to this link and find one in your neighborhood. Try as many flavors as you can stomach. Don't be like Ponce de Leon, go and discover your fountain of soda and comment below if you create something amazing.
