I'm probably one of few americans who isn't really familiar with Slurpees. I grew up in a town without 7-11, so I guess this makes sense.
I only had my first Slurpee a year ago, when I was on a liquids diet for medical reasons, and wasn't that impressed (although, I was so sick of only drinking things at that point, that I think I wouldn't have liked anything ...). That was the only Slurpee I ever had. This past week was July 11, and 7-11 was giving out Slurpees to celebrate. I was tempted to check it out, but it seemed like too much effort for something I didn't really care about. But today, as I was walking through Union Square, the 7-11 cart was out with free Slurpees! So, I got to try my 2nd and 3rd Slurpees ever. Unfortunately, it felt like winter outside, so a nice refreshing icy drink wasn't exactly what I wanted ... but I could imagine enjoying one of these on a hot summer day, if we ever got those!

| Slurpee Lite™ Fanta Sugar-free Mango. |
This had a good mango flavor, and wasn't fake tasting even though it was sugar free. I really liked the fizz to it. Carbonated sweet ice is pretty good!

| Coca-Cola Classic Slurpee. |
This really just was a frozen Coke. I again found the carbonation to be pretty fun, but meh, just a Coke.
