7UP Salty Lemon (China) - 550mL

The salty lemon combo sounded weird but it actually works, like a lemon soda with a pinch of salt rimming the glass. The 550mL bottle is big enough to share, though I ended up finishing the whole thing myself.

I was skeptical about a salty soda but this actually works — the lemon hits first and the salt creeps in at the end, really refreshing over ice on a hot afternoon. The 550mL bottle is a good size too, lasted me a whole afternoon.

The salty kick in this lemon soda is way more subtle than I expected—it just makes the fizz taste rounder and less sharp. The 550mL bottle disappeared fast because it’s genuinely hard to stop sipping once you get used to the savory twist. Definitely my new hot-weather go-to.
