It will come in two flavors, Citrus and Fruit Punch. 'Our consumers told us they are looking for an alternative to traditional morning beverages – one that tastes great, includes real fruit juice and has just the right amount of kick to help them start their days,' said Greg Lyons, Mountain Dew's vice president of marketing."

    So you had some decaf form of it before?

    Any reason? or just that being felons means we don't trust you with any drugs?

    Why would anyone drink Mt.Dew without caffeine? That is like decaf coffee or alcohol free beer or tits on a boar hog.
