Hooplah for Kofola!

I know what you're thinking, "It's Europe. They drink beer, right?" Yes, they drink beer (not so much hard liquor), but they also keep to their history from under the Communist ruling. The Czech's have a cola-like beverage called Kofola. It's kind of like the U.S.'s Pepsi or Coke, but not as quenching. Having been in the Czech Republic for a week, I figured it was time to give it a try. To me, it tasted like a Coke with gummy candy extract, but to my friend, the taste wasn't so pleasant. As with many foods and beverages, it's all a matter on how your body reacts to the substance. If you're ever in the Czech Republic, it's a must try. For 45 crowns (about 22cents), you can't go wrong. Just make sure you order the small (it's not as small as you think it is, but you'll understand why to get the small once you try it).

Enjoy!
