One of the new soda flavors--the other being Orange Crush. Theoretically, it isn't hard to create something orange flavored. Root beer, on the other hand, is hit or miss (looking at you, root beer Oreos!).
I don't know what these are made of, although admittedly I don't want to know. The crust is brown, but it doesn't taste like gingerbread or anything else I feared. It just tastes like a normal Pop Tart crust with a tinge of root beer. The interior, meanwhile, is a dark brown gooey mess...as if someone melted down root beer barrel hard candies. They won't convert you to liking root beer (or Pop Tarts) if you don't like either of those already, but at least they taste like you would expect a root beer Pop Tart to taste like. And if you've already been wondering what a root beer Pop Tart would taste like, you're already weird enough to want to try these.
Now, if they could just make a Dr Pepper version...
RATING: 4/5
