    IBC has maintain to be a leader in the soda industry for decades. The cream soda is their next best to the root beer. The cream soda goes down sweet and smooth with a bit of ice cream after taste. The cane sugar is just the right amount to give it that sweet after taste. Try the IBC Cream Soda while watching that Saturday night football game.

Saranac Orange Cream (#7)

Saranac  Utica, NY

180 Calories (12oz) , Sugar 45g

• Label and Bottle Appearance: Standard tall clear bottle with no trills label that was not glued on very well.. = 5.0

• Color: Modest orange = 5.0

• Taste: Can taste the orange but very lite on the creme    = 4.0

• Experience: Decent but needs more creme in its soda  = 4.0

• Notable Ingredients: Natural Constituents of Orange, Ester of Wood Rosin

• Sweetener: HFCS

This was the first time I have tasted a Saranac beverage and at first sight, I give it a "Okay" First, They need to invest in their marketing as the label is very boring and was peeling off on all corners. I like the deep tase of the natural orange in this soda, but there was not much a creme sickle going with it. Reading up on Saranac it seems like their mainstream is beer, so maybe soda is just a side gig.
