I make my own simple syrups including ginger, cinnamon, rose, lavender, blueberry, lime and other flavors. Easy cooking projects and I always know exactly what's in them. You can mix them with fizzy water to make soda pop, make fancy cocktails, or use them on pancakes or ice cream. That said if the ingredient list was clean and it had a good bite (mouthfeel) like Mexicoke I would probably buy some occasionally, like for a cookout or party.
