Ting kicks ass! I could definitely finish off a case by myself in less than 24 hours but the drive involved and high cost prohibits me from being as gluttonous as I’d like to be. My wife and I took a weekend trip to Jamaica a couple years ago and we stayed at one of the all-inclusive hotels where you can drink and eat like a pig. I ate reasonably but when it came to the booze I went way overboard – I made sure that every time I ordered a Planter’s Punch I had a bottle of Ting as a chaser… not that the rum was too much to handle but it gave me a chance to drink my fill of Ting!

As far as the link with Pepsi... I never knew that! I know Pepsi is the leading soft drink in the Caribbean and they must bottle Ting for export. The stuff I've been buying comes in the green 10oz. glass bottle with the D & G logos on the labels... maybe those bastards at Pepsi bought out Desnoes & Geddes? I'm afraid what will happen to the world's greatest grapefruit soda in the hands of Pepsi...
