Donkey Kong Jungle Juice

I found this can of Donkey Kong Jungle Juice several months ago at Urban Outfitters (of all places). It's made by a company that "designs, manufactures and distributes the world's most creative impulse items". Basically, they make novelty crap. And this is no exception.

I was surprised when I poured the contents of the can into a glass and it was a rosy pink color. (I guess I expected it to be a toxic green color like Surge or something.) You can smell the drink immediately from several feet away. It smells like vomit from Rainbow Brite's belly after having eaten too much bubblegum and cotton candy. And it tastes like liquid Smarties. Seriously. This would be the perfect beverage pairing for a bag full of Halloween candy. Donkey Kong is surely rolling over in his barrel.
