We are going to do a series of Nuka-mixes and Nuka-variants.

Nuka-Cola Victory

How we made it: We used Dublin Texas Sweet Peach Soda Craft Soda, insofar as it is a regional peachy-coloured soda from the Southwest. There’s already a Nuka-Cola Orange, so Victory is probably not orange-flavoured. There was a lemony Nuka in plans, so Nuka-Cola Victory is probably not lemon. I suppose that Nuka-Cola Victory could be carrot, mango, pumpkin, guava, or any other orange fruit or vegetable, but I think peach is the most likely option.

Reactions: It tastes like an artificial peach soft drink. I think Tim Horton’s peach drink is better.

Would we make this again: I’d buy peach soft drink again if I needed to make various Nuka-Mixes for fandom purposes.

Nuka-Cooler

How We Made it: 1:1:1 ratio of Nuka-Cola Quantum, Nuka-Cola Quartz, Nuka-Cola Victory.

Reactions: The Quantum flavour is dominant, although the other flavours do cut down the sourness. I feel this is overall a more pleasant sipping drink than Quantum by itself. If I had been able to layer it properly, it could have turned out like half of the trans or intersex flag, but I was unable to layer it, so it just looks blue-grey with pink tinges.

Would we make this again: It’s a lot of work. Probably not.

Nuka-Ray

How we made it: 1:1 ratio of Nuka-Victory and Nuka-Cola Orange. (We’ll discuss the Nuka-Cola Orange in another post.)

Reactions: It's pretty good. Maybe second to the Nuka-Sunrise? (Which we will review shortly.) Fruity. Very orange-coloured.

Would we make this again: Maybe, if we had all the component soft drinks on hand.

Nuka-Rush

How we made it: 1:1 ratio of Nuka-Victory and Nuka-Wild. We used a local root beer for the Nuka-Wild. We have made our own Sunset Sarsaparilla in the past, and I suspect that Nuka-Wild tastes like a not-quite-as-good Sunset Sarsaparilla, but we didn’t feel like making a whole batch of Sunset Sarsaparilla just for Nuka-mixes.

Reactions: Weird but better than we would have expected. The peach and root beer flavours are both distinct, rather than melding.

Would we make this again: Probably not.
