Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

My grandma ALWAYS had Sundrop in her refridgerator :)

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

used to drink this as a kid in western Pa. sorta like Mountain Dew but better. The store i got it at only had the 7 & 12 oz btls. good stuff.

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

it's the greatest.

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Found a can of this left by a visiting baseball team at the place I work out at, very tasty stuff. Thanks for reminding me, now I have to find some more. :hm

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

But of course we've heard of SUNDROP! I still stop by and get one at the convenience store about once a week when heading to the lake. Like it better than Mountain Dew...and of course the regular is good, but, not much difference between it and the diet.

Now....I've got one for you, how about Cheer Wine? Ever heard of it and/or had one?

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Love me some Sundrop! :D

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Love me some Cheerwine :dr

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Now THERE'S a man of the world and with good taste! :dance:

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Oh Yes! Had it for the first time in 1974 in Blowing Rock, NC. Had to pull the glass bottle from one of the old rack on the side vending machines. To this day, that was probably the best soda pop I have ever tasted. :)

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Used to love it as a kid down in Myrtle Beach, SC. They still make it?

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

never ever heard of this, but obviously its good. When was it popular?

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Yes, it is hard to find though :(

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

You bet! Still on the market and making a pretty huge resurgence in the eastern part of NC.

SmokeyJoe --I recall the vending machines you're referring to! My dad use to buy me a cheerwine and a pack of cheese crackers while we sat at the gas station solving the world's problems with his buddies. Had a many Sun Drop's at the same place...along with NEHI Grape Drinks!

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Just had one the other day at a BBQ chain here in Columbus. They ship in a lot of the brands you can only get down south. I think my step-dad still has a case that has Earnhardt Sr. on all the bottles.

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

When I saw this was a poll, I had to ask WTF!!! Is there really any other than the regular???

A hole-in-the-wall BBQ joint I have been going to for better than 40 years serves Sundrop as the only bottled drink available (other soft drinks are fountain). Top Hat BBQ in Blount County has served Sundrop for as long as I can remember; and I have been eating there since I was a mere slip of a small boy.

Forget the poll. Don't be swayed by the offerings of the other two flavors. Go for the green (yellow?)(Yellow/green??!!) goodness in its full color and calories (unless you are diabetic, then sugarfree is acceptable. But not the red stuff, for the love of all that is tasty!!!:r

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

It's manufactured not 30 miles from me in down town St. Louie. :hm, Sundrop Bombs??

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Scottie...Wow, I forgot all about Squirt. Use to drink it as well. It was pretty good, as well. But...the Sundrop was and is what I pull out of the cooler at the store when I'm cruising down the road.

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Heck yeah, Still have Sundrop here in NC. Can't drink the regular wit hsugar anymore because of my diabetes, but I still very much enjoy the Diet Sundrop. If I am not mistaken Sundrop was the favored drink of the late Dale Earnhardt

And a little of subject but who can forget RC cola and the Nehi Sodas( I specially love the Peach Nehi and Grape Nehi.)

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Had my first Moon Pie with an RC Cola!

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

I don't remember Sundrop ever making its way to New England and I can't remember seeing it when I was stationed in SC. I will have to try it next time that I am down South.

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

I had a Sundrop last week at a country BBQ joint. I've liked it since I was a kid and will often buy one when I encounter it just because it isn't at just every c-store. I have not noticed the other flavor around my neck of the woods, though, just regular and diet.

Another soft drink that really does seem to have dropped off the face of the earth that I drank as a kid was something called "Apple Beer." I wonder where it went.

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Would that be Top Hat, Tim??

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

I had a couple of these a few weeks ago while traveling through NC. I thought they were pretty good.:)

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Yes. I just overlooked your thread a few posts above it.

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

I hate to resurrect a past thread but I just had to tell ya'll that I was missing Sundrop so much I had a case shipped to NJ from TN. I was stationed In NC for 8 years and drank it daily. When I moved back to NJ I never found anything remotely like it.
I forgot to ask my mom to pick me up a couple cases when she went down to check on her summer house so I found a site on the internet that would ship it out. It cost me 40 for 24 cans. I know nutz but hey aren't we all a little bit crazy here in the asylum? :banger

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Yes, but didn't care for it. Cheer Wine, on the other hand, is THE BEST sody pop out there! It is made in Salisbury, NC- home of Elizabeth Dole. My outlaws live in Mooresville, NC(Race City) and when I visit them I always pick up a grocery cart full of it- much to the amusement of the checkout person at Wally World. It goes really well with cigars! Alas, I hafta buy diet these days, but the leaded version is by far the best thing I've ever tasted, with Diet Polar Orange Dry a close second- maybe even better because it is diet and so tasty.

But, Adam, I have a bottle of the leaded for ya that I'll bring to the herf on the 27th.

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Both Cheerwine and Sundrop are easily found here in Southern NC.

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Life wouldn't be the same without those two. Nothing like a Sundrop Slushy in the summer. Cheerwine is a takeoff of Cherry Wine, fwiw.

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Hmmmm...Apple Beer:dr

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Sundrop is big up here in Wisconsin. In fact, local Twig's beverage in Shawano bottles the stuff.

Sundrop slushie is a great summer chiller.

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

I've never had Sundrop or Cheerwine. I need to find some now.

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Come down south, Dan!:tu
Herf!:banger

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Had a Sundrop yesterday in an old-style glass bottle. Best Sundrop I've ever had.

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Yep, the glass bottles are the shiznit.

The aluminum cans taste a little tinny.

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

I like Sundrop, but like a few guys have mentioned... I LOVE Squirt!:banger

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

Sundrop is aces. It's by far the most true citrussy tasting drink that's supposed to be made to taste that way.
Now it can get old fast, so I like to balance it out with another bev. I can't drink two back to back.

Well, Squirt IS citrussy. But I should say it's the best out of the one's I drink. I don't get much Squirt here
in the Mtn Dew belt. Now you know what's GOOD? FRESCA!!

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

I've not had a Sundrop in years, but I do have a few cans of Cheerwine in my fridge. A woman I work with brought me up a 12-pack when she was in NC last summer, and I've been rationing it ever since. As for Sundrop, the last I remember having was back in my college days, when we'd mix it with gin over crushed ice. Talk about a nice drink for hot weather!

Re: Have you ever had/heard of Sundrop?
 

I DID have a Sundrop Cherry Lemon while I was in Concord last week. It was a can tucked in my sister's
garage that we were cleaning out. She fridged it for me and i had it for supper. Not bad at all.
