\"\"<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a new Dew in town, and that town is Cabo. Or is it Baja? Both of those are towns in Mexico, right? I wasn\u2019t sure, so I looked it up. It turns out Baja is a state in Mexico, on the California peninsula, while Cabo is a city in Baja, so I guess the name kind of works? Anyway.<\/p>\n

In the bottle, this soda is shockingly orange. The deep teal label provides a nice counterbalance, heightening the depth of the drink\u2019s color. I know this might be a bit much for a color, but I find it really appealing. It\u2019s very summery and bright. Looking at it just feels refreshing and summery. Like, I want the bottle to be wearing sunglasses with a pool floaty around it.<\/p>\n

Opening the bottle, the scent is very orange-forward citrus. It\u2019s not overpowering, but definitely noticeable. There are faint hints of lime as well, but kind of a syrupy sweet lime, unlike Baja Blast itself. It\u2019s really nice and fresh, and I wouldn\u2019t mind an air freshener or candle that smelled like it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Then I took a sip. Have you ever had those very generic gummy orange slice candies? The ones dusted with sugar and seemingly only available at gas stations? Yeah, Mountain Dew Baja Cabo Citrus could have been called Mountain Dew Gas Station Orange Slice based on flavor alone. The lime and supposed \u201cCitrus Punch\u201d vanishes into the background, all but invisible against the looming presence of sweet, yet very artificial tasting, orange. If you\u2019re a fan of orange sodas in general, I feel like you\u2019ll probably like this. There\u2019s a brief flash of Dew-flavored aftertaste, but that candy flavor is far more dominant.<\/p>\n

I think this would make excellent floats with some vanilla ice cream or freezes with some lime or orange sherbet. It\u2019s not bad, and I actually like it. It\u2019s just very, very orange-forward, and I\u2019m a lime girlie who really appreciates the more tart notes in my soda. (RIP Pitch Black II, the sourest of them all!)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In conclusion, this isn\u2019t a super original flavor, but it is a nice orangey addition to the Dew lineup if you aren\u2019t into that spicy mango flavor that recently dropped at Little Caesars<\/a>.<\/p>\n
