Sprite announced on Wednesday that it would be releasing Sprite 6 Mix by LeBron James, a drink that features the traditional lemon-lime flavor with cherry and orange. The drink will be available nationwide for a limited time in 19.2-ounce cans and 20-ounce bottles.

"I never imagined I would have my own flavor someday," James said in a statement. "I had a great time working with the Sprite team to turn my favorite flavors into a pretty cool variation of one of my favorite brands. I'm proud of what we created and I'm excited for my fans to try it."

I don't care if it was free.  I don't care if it tasted like heaven in a can.  I wouldn't drink this.  (It doesn't help that it sounds nasty.)

Of course I would.





Just like every soda you drink, you do something else with it sometime later. 


Here is your chance to flush Lebron down the toilet.

No, and if I owned a restaurant or market I would refuse to sell it in my shop

Why not?  If it tastes good and costs the same as a regular Sprite, who cares whose picture is on it?  I'll drink Dr Hitler if it's tasty enough.  And doesn't, y'know, fund genocide.

What if it funds a wildly talented man-child's out of control ego?

I think if you're a sports fan that ship has sailed many times over.

Soda is bad for you, you shouldn't drink it at all.

Does this even fund James?  I mean I know he has had coke as a sponsor for years, but does he get something extra from every sale or is this just about doing something fun for James?
