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.

Sprite Chill now available in North America

Considering it's still federally illegal and only legal in about 23 states I'd say no
Update: They had it so I bought two 12-packs. Going to try some tonight after it chills.
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.
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.

It really tastes like a more lime-forward Cherry 7UP, it feels like.
That's not one that I've tried. I wondered if it tasted like a lemon lime drink I had at some point, like Fresca or something. I'm not sure I've even had Fresca. I don't usually drink lemon-lime, I like cola.
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.
