The original thread title had autocorrected to "Sprite Chile" and "Sprite Chili" šŸ˜‡
I read this as Sprite Chili as well, and was wondering if this was going to be the answer to Flamin' Hot Mtn Dew. Which I was sure I was going to hate but ended up... well I won't say I loved it to bits, but it wasn't bad.

I ran into it on Saturday and have it a try.

It's not bad. I doubt it'll replace regular Sprite for me though.

I regularly consume Halls Blue, the Mentho-Lyptus as just a regular snack/candy so I'd probably like this. If I see it in the wild I'll give it a try.

It's fine. The marketing makes it sound like it has the Ice Breakers cooling chemical in it. It doesn't. It's just cherry lime Sprite.

I like it a lot. It vaguely reminds me of something, but I'm not sure what. It tastes very lime. I'm glad I got two boxes. If there is a special "cooling effect" I don't really notice it. It is refreshing though.

I have a case of the zero version of this. It's okay, you can taste both the cherry and lime but there is no chill or bite to it that I was hoping for. A lot better than the lemonade version they had a while back.

Got a case. It's just cherry limeade - which I'm a big fan of so it's a win, but there's no "cooling" factor which I thought was the whole point?

I am always interested on fancy snacks that I will (almost) never see in my country, with a fairly low probability on outlet stores like PrimaPrix or Pepco.
But then I remember that Chewboom links are blocked in Spain (and probably other EU countries), so an archive.is or archive.org link would be great for things like these.

I tried the 20oz version.

It's good. Doesn't quite reach OG or Tropical/remix for me, but I like it over the Lebron flavor from years back (which I also liked). I hope they keep this flavor in rotation.

The menthol-like cooling factor is really subtle, like others have said.

I tried a bottle.
I strongly dislike artificial cherry flavor and it just tasted like a Mountain Dew Code Red, which is my least-favorite flavor.
I didn't notice the cooling effect while drinking it, but I *did* notice it in the aftertaste. It felt like I had just chewed minty gum, minus the actual mint flavor/burn.

Maybe it would be better if you drank it warm so you felt the cooling while you drank it, as opposed to the drink already being cold? I dunno.
Seems like a complete gimmick.

Blunted the battery acid like crispness of the OG. That's a no from me dawg. If they made a version with ginger that upped the static electricity I'd be there.

Tried some, and not a big fan. Very artificial cherry flavour, and it's very up-front and doesn't last. OG sprite is better.

Tried it and didn't care for it to be honest. I would take regular Sprite over it pretty much every time.

I got a case and I really like it. It's a million times better than the monstrosity that is Coca-Cola Spiced.

I finally got the chance to try one and I actually really liked it. It definitely has a subtle icy sort of bite to the flavor. It reminds me a little of the way an Icee tastes.
