NEW NITRO PEPSI - Nitrogen-Infused Draft Cola & Vanilla Cola - Review 

I’ve had 3 cans of it so far. That first sip is magical, but afterwards, kinda flat yeah, but still good.

i get why you think it isnt necessary but i think its really cool that they are selling something that kind of imitates alcohol without actually being it so that people who dont drink can enjoy the texture, plus the head on nitro pepsi tastes better than any pepsi ive ever had so honestly id drink it over the default.

I just tried the vanilla flavor for the first time. It tastes exactly like you put vanilla ice cream in Pepsi. Its really good.

My opinion is that it tastes better out of the can vs. pouring in a glass. I like the vanilla better than the regular. I love this idea and hope it sticks around.

As someone with gastrointestinal issues and stopped drinking soda all together since I was a teenager and this is just a holy grail for me. The bubbles dont get stuck in my stomach anymore (':

The carbonation in soda helps to cut the sweetness of it, hence why flat sodas taste so much sweeter. I thought they'd reduce the sugar somewhat considering there reducing the carbonation. The Vanilla one is pretty good though I agree.

I am a staunch Coca Cola man, I do not drink Pepsi. I did I admit buy a 4 pack of each one, put them in the fridge and the next day when I got home from work, I decided to try it. I grabbed my beer glass and popped the original flavor one open. I heard that hissing coming from the can, and that was pretty cool I admit. But the taste is amazing, and I chugged it. I immediately got a vanilla one out of the fridge, popped it and I was in heaven. I am now a Pepsi guy. Still Coke is my go to, but man I hope they keep this around and not do a limited thing with them. Good job Pepsi! Oh and everyone comparing to a beer, it os a Pepsi, not a Guiness. You want a beer, get a beer. This is a Cola!!

in all honesty I get it's gimmick but in my opinion I really enjoy the draft Pepsi as a chaser or mixer with alcohol its so much better than all the carbonation with regular soda

Before trying it, this would work great with cream sodas. Literally made for nitro infusion

I'm in love with these I enjoy the nitro gimmick and I can see these working very well with ice cream floats

I actually really like the vanilla I don’t drink so getting that feeling and experience without alcohol is awesome

I was excited when I first saw their commercial. I tried one for the first time today and was a little disappointed. I chilled the can, poured hard as instructed, and I did not have as much of a foam head on the top. But just as you described, it reminded me of a flat tasting Pepsi. I don’t think this is going to last long

I personally LOVE flat soda. If they had made this when I was a kid this would be the only soda id drink but apart from that its definitely a one and done for me.

Gimmick is absolutely right. Nitrogen will just make it flat. If you enjoy flat soda, just open a can and drink it the next day.

I tried one over the weekend, but i didn't our it out, i just drank straight from the can. I thought it was good. Tasted better than regular Pepsi. Sweeter and Smoother, almost creamy in a good way.

As a former childhood Pepsi (in large glass bottles) turn adult hard-bubble Coke snob, I was really, really sceptical! But....I bought one, followed the instructions exactly, and was happily surprised! This is the best and coolest tasting Pepsi product I have had since my childhood, back in the 60's! I personally love a fountain soda for a slightly more syrupy flavor, but miss the foamy head. This product, to me, almost merges the two together, and is smooth/creamy, like an ice cream soda. Is it necessary? No. But it's a really nice treat for us cola lovers who are not beer drinkers! WIth the high calorie count, will I drink it as my regular go-to? Probably not. But it sure will be nice to break out for special occasions and as a periodic treat! C'mon Coke, develop one too, as I would love to do a comparison!

For someone that doesn’t drink alcohol or beer, & loves pop, this looks so good! Thanks for showing this Papi!!!

After trying it, I believe this is a great concept. But I believe it just doesn’t work with regular Pepsi. This should strictly be a flavored version of Pepsi, like Vanilla, Cherry etc

I love carbonated drinks and this is completely flat but the taste and smoothness is great.. haven’t had the vanilla version but I feel like that flavour will complement this drink a lot better

To each their own, the first tie I tried the Pepsi Nitro it redefined what Pepsi should be.

I like the vanilla draft I've not tried the regular and I think it's like a Pepsi float without the ice cream definitely smooth ide say anyone that likes vanilla sodas should try this.

I actually really like this. I’m not a huge fan of carbonation and I prefer it a little flat. I’d really like to see this with rootbeer or sprite

I just wanted to say I just started watching your reviews and you have quickly become my favorite food “critic”. You explain taste well and know what you’re talking about with a lot of things. But my favorite part is that you’re open to new things and not someone who thinks everything is just garbage. Most critics are just that….critics. Thnx man, keep ‘em coming.

I have described it in the perfect way. It’s like a float without the ice cream

Got these from Walmart, Vanilla is definitely the one to try and I totally agree with everything you mentioned in the video. Hope they keep it around :)

I liked the sci-fi sound it makes when you open it.

I agree with you 100%. I tried this when i first saw it because i am a huge guiness fan. But not huge on cola. IMO cola taste better with carbonation. Unless you like the cola when its flat; you probably won't care too much for this flavor of this pepsi. Definitely a cool idea though.

The carbonation is what makes soda taste so good for me.

I agree with that comment on the first Pepsi, how it's creamy but at the same time it feels flat. Now I definitely get what you mean about that icecream feeling, I like that alot. Definitely would go with the second one any day.👍🏼

I just tried this and came online to see if someone was as disappointed as me 😆. I didn’t even look when I bought the Pepsi that it was Nitro instead of CO2, so when I opened it and it popped harder than any can I’ve ever opened I thought something was weird, then I took a taste and it was amazing! A nice taste, super smooth, and perfectly “bubbly. Unfortunately, only the first sip was like that. After that it just tasted like a flat Pepsi. It’s a great concept that should be worked on, definitely, but they may have blown the intro to it with this. Haven’t tried the vanilla but was thinking perhaps if I just threw a straw in the can after opening it, it would contain a bit more nitrogenation and taste less flat. It would also be pretty cool to try this nitrogen method with other sodas like Dr. Pepper, Root Beer, Cream Soda, Ginger Beer, etc.

Saw a can at the store today so I bought one. Tastes like Pepsi....or rather tastes like a regular Pepsi that has gone flat with 90% of the carbonation gone. Be better if they added some carbonation. Tastes syrupy and he is right...there is an odd after taste... I do have a marketing slogan for Pepsi though: " Try Pepsi Nitro...the cola that thinks it's a beer" And oh...62 grams of sugar.

I love the thumbnail, that’s exactly what I was thinking. “Who do they think they are, Guinness?”

Not gonna lie I tried the vanilla version and this is the most enjoyable pepsi experience I’ve ever had it felt creamy and nice after the first sip it goes flat but it tastes amazing

I'll admit I thought it was a cool gimmick, but after trying the first can I was underwhelmed. I'll finish the pack but yeah, it's a one-time purchase for me.

I just tried this today. Glad I decided on the vanilla, it really does taste like ice cream in there. Now I wonder what a wild cherry Pepsi Nitro would taste like.

Totally agree, I'm not a huge soda drinker, but I tried the Nitro Vanilla Pepsi on a whim, and ended up loving it. Normal Pepsi tastes too bitter to me, but the Nitro Vanilla Pepsi is almost like cream soda, or a root beer float. Its got a really smooth mouth feel, and the vanilla flavor and nitrogen neutralizes some of the bitter notes of the Pepsi. I recommend drinking them chilled straight from the can. I was never a huge soda drinker before, but I have these a couple times a week now. They get a 👍 from me. Definitely recommend people give them a shot!

This is one of the best Pepss ever made, along with the Pepsi 1893 colas.

I just tried one, and I liked it. It's Pepsi without the burps. Easy to chug.

I liked it. One of the better flavors in a while. Its taste is more of a cream soda/Pepsi.

For me it’s so much like flat Pepsi that I can’t help but be disappointed. I love how the bubbles burn the back of my throat. That’s why I like soda

I liked it because the nitro doesn't agitate my heart burn as much lol

A bartender showed me how to pour a Guinness from a can. Pop the top of your can, take the pint glass, put it directly over the top of the can, upside-down. Flip can and glass over. Pull up on can slowly. Perfect pour, looks identical to Guinness.

I've only tried the original, but it was terrible. It's unbelievably sweet, and goes completely flat in mere minutes. PepsiCo didn't put enough thought into it. Without the acidity that CO2 adds the sweetness is overwhelming, and a lot more CO2 can be dissolved in water than nitrogen can. If a soda manufacturer wants to make an excellent nitrogen beverage, they need to start from scratch with nitrogen in mind.

I just want Pepsi blue back

These are amazing, they need to make a wild cherry asap

Now pepsi needs to do a root beer in the same style

Definitely an interesting flavor. Definitely not “normal” Pepsi. I think because people expect that “burn” from the bubbles, this seems a bit flat

I saw ads of this and wasn't sure how good it would be, I think I'll buy a vanilla one for the experience. Great review!

The vanilla one is one of the best i ever had. its feel like having a strout but like its a soda. Creamy and smooth. GOAT

I'm going to have to try these out for obvious reasons. Totally forgot these were coming out, so good look on the review! I was thinking the vanilla version would work better. Can't wait to grab some. Nice review, Papi. Cheers, dude!

That vanilla Pepsi nitro go crazy I really love it I’m trying to get more but having a hard time finding them in store I hope Pepsi didn’t discontinue them already

This is great for people who don't usually drink soda bc the carbonation stings.

I like it a lot , I hate drinking sodas out of a can unless it’s super cold. This is so smooth, I rather have this than a regular Pepsi.

I had one of these the other day, and after the first sip i HAD to do this... Take one of them, or even better the vanilla... Make a float with one of them. You dont get the insane bubbles from a traditionally carbonated soda. OMG perfection. Thank me later

When you think about it Nitro Pepsi is like classic sodas such as root beer and cherry cream that was popular back in the day for example 1930s

It’s cool. I like the idea, but it tastes flat. The carbonation makes bigger bubbles and the nitrogen is smaller bubbles that cause it the liquid to feel smooth, but for soda POP it doesn’t help. Works for some beers, but not soda. Great review. Give a try, but not for me and I love soda especially cola!

Saw this on the shelf today and figured why not? I know I'm most likely going to not enjoy it that much but when it comes to food and beverages, everything is worth trying once.

These look interesting. Wish they would make this stuff in decaf versions so I could try it. Great video, I subscribed 👍

the vanilla one tastes good. kind of like a coke float sort of flavor. But for someone who just wants to drink it out the can, it fizzes up a crazy amount when you open it. I have to just crack it, drink the fizz, then fully open it.

I actually just tried it today. I freaking loved it! Yes it’s unnecessary but almost everything is unnecessary if you think about it. I love nitrogen infused coffee and beer and now that we have nitrogen infused soda that’s just next level amazing. Truthfully I don’t really care for Pepsi all that much but if Coke did this I would be over the moon!

I got the regular one. It was pretty good. This is probably my favorite soda of all time.

I recently bought a few cause my local Dollar General was having a sale 3 for $3 even. I wish I knew the nitrogen instantly activated because I popped it open and it went everywhere!! I’ll have to try one again soon but I’m not a big soda drinker… I LOVE soda but it’s so unhealthy that I can’t have it around… it’s almost addicting!! - UPDATE - I had a second drink with a friend, we both tried both Vanilla and Original flavour. I can say that Vanilla is DEFINITELY better, however I don’t think it’s my kind of drink 😅 They are VERY sweet and it just taste like flat soda, I think this would be a very good proxy as a juice or fruit flavoured drink maybe from Fanta or some other flavour soda brand but it doesn’t translate well with Pepsi sadly. It’s definitely a fun drink to try however!!

The Pepsi vanilla Nitro taste very different from original very smooth and fantastic taste

This is an excellent review- informative and thorough. Thank you!

I ordered some and it’s coming tomorrow. Can’t wait to try it

Im still mad at Pepsi for getting rid of Blue but I see they coming back out with Crystal Pepsi this summer along with Pepsi Crystal Zero.

He was talking all that gimmick conversation and then put a smile on his face with the first sip I about dropped my phone Jesus Christ

I loved both better than normal Pepsi. Of anything I'm a Coke fan more. Thought about grabbing some rum with the Nitro-Pepsi, It may taste amazing.

This stuff is so good it tastes like the ones in the bottles the old school ones. Wherever you're talking about it has a smooth flavor the key is gonna drink a really cold

The Pepsi regular nitro one still would be perfect to me .From years of beer my esophagus was 75% (class D) covered with ulcers. Carbonation on an acidic beverage is torture without a daily prescribed double dose of Prilosec for acid reflex.

It's so damn good. Taste best in the can. My favorite pop! I hope it doesn't ever get discontinued!

What a well designed gimmick. It will definitely get some initial sales. This is going exactly where Crystal Pepsi. Can't one of these soda companies make a forever lasting flavor or new drink?

Mouth full of creaminess

I tried it and it just tasted like flat Pepsi. I did like the smoother, creamier feeling but I wouldn’t recommend it.

Nice soft creamy texture.

Mines coming later this week!

The world: "How hard would you like to shit on Pepsi?" This guy: "Yes!"

These are insane. It was so alien to me but I really enjoyed it. Not sure if it will catch on tho, to me it feels syrupy with all the sugar. Kinda takes away the enjoyment of the fizz you get from normal soda.

I absolutely love both of them.

I’m drinking one right now Really not a fan of this It’s like drinking a flat Pepsi I drink Pepsi because of the more intense taste

"Do you like 2 inches of head to your soda/pop, we got ya!" -Pepsi 😆 🤣

As a Canadian I’m very jealous of all the different flavours of pop you guys get. Zero percent chance of us getting it north of the border…

I TRIED THE NEW PEPIS... TODAY! AND I LIKE IT , IT REMINED ME OF A ICE CREAM FLOT IN A CAN.😋😋

I wasn't the biggest fan. The mouthfeel was there. It was super smooth, but I love the bubbles with normal pepsi. It just kinda tasted flat due to how smooth it was. Was great with whiskey added though.

nitro cold brew coffee in a can is beastly

I agree its flat soda pop.....priced at $1.88 per can. If you do the math its almost the same price as a 4 pack cans of Guiness (per can)....at least with Guiness it has 5% alcohol.

Has anyone noticed that soda doesn’t stay carbonated very long anymore? Especially out of a can or bottle, if I get a fountain soda at some places the carbonation lasts a little longer. Iam a child of the 80s and I just don’t remember soda going flat so fast when I was a kid. Maybe it’s a money saver for them to give less carbonation.

It taste like flat pepsi

i had cherry cream soda at wendy’s the other day & it was hands down the greatest soda i ever tried in my life.

Very interesting. I'll be on the look out for sure! I feel like if this was going to work maybe it would be better with coke. Coke to me has that syrupy thick body that pepsi does not. Like you said nitro will thin it out and mute the flavors to a certain degree but still have a creamy mouthfeel. Gotta give them credit of trying new things I guess. Cheers.

I enjoy the nitro Pepsi, just due to my body not having a bad reaction to it because whenever I drink carbonated sodas I tend to get sick and well it's not fun, so know I can actually enjoy soda again

I hate carbonation. But I loved this. Almost like a float without icecream.

I tried the vanilla today and loved it

I seem to be the only person on earth that 1) Prefers the original over the vanilla. And 2) Prefers the nitro over the standard CO2! 😂 It’s all good. But I hope it sticks around. I LOVE IT!

Folks do u enjoy Pepsi?…then you’re gonna LOVE PEPSI!

I love it. I want to see a coke version

Just tried one and it's definitely unique. Best I can describe the taste is a melted coke or Pepsi slushi from a gas station.

I honestly thought about nitro soda in my food truck

I loved the vanilla one I got them both has gifts for me b day and I’ve been hooked sense.

They are my new favorite Pepsi now
