I Don't Know What an Acerola is, but it Tastes a Lot Like Kiwi Strawberry

So, I drank another of the generic store brand fizzy waters (safely outside this time). The flavor was "Acerola cherry blackberry". I remember when I bought it, I thought to myself, "what's an acerola"? In fact, that's pretty much WHY I bought it. I like trying new fruits with weird names. Well, at our mini grill-out at Lower Penn Lake Park last night, I brought the Acerola Cherry Blackberry water out. After drinking it, I decided that it tasted exactly like the Kiwi Strawberry water that exploded all over me and my kitchen.

By which I mean to say.....it tasted like aspartame.

Generic brand flavor waters, you're definitely not as good as generic brand sodas.

BTW--if anyone is wondering what an acerola is: http://www.tradewindsfruit.com/acerola.htm
Which makes it more related to an apple and a magnolia than a cherry. Whatever.
