La Croix – Passionfruit
/Have I ever eaten the passionfruit? I must have, but I can’t remember, so even if I did, it doesn’t count. I would not even be able to identify one. I looked them up on the ol’ ’ternet—they look pretty cool—you cut them open, eat the juicy seeds. They come in several colors. The fruit is sweet—and it’s a good name. I can understand how they’d want to make a favored water just for the name alone. The flavor isn’t bad—I guess I’d say it tastes “tropical.” Tropical fruit flavored sparking water—a good thing. Passionfruit sparkling water—seems like it might be hot item. I’m not terribly excited about it, though. Why? I suppose since I don’t really know what passionfruit tastes like, I can’t translate that to the flavor of this water. There is no recognition factor, no nostalgia factor, no memory factor. For someone who grew up eating passionfruit—assuming they nailed the flavor—it might be a different story.
