Don't Knock This Veggie-Flavored Soda Until You Try It
We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. Cucumbers and soda sounds like a curious pairing, doesn't it? Well, Mr. Q Cumber soda, made by Global Beverage Enterprises in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, is actually an award-winning drink. Following its release in 2009, the cucumber-flavored sparkling beverage was named Best New Carbonated Soft Drink in America for 2010 by Beverage World Magazine. More than a decade and a half later, people are still loving Mr. Q Cumber. If you're not convinced, the reactions online might persuade you to try this unique soda. Internet reviewers have given the drink high ratings, lauding its light, crisp, and refreshing taste. Many have noted its intense cucumber aroma and flavor, as well as its sweetness, emphasizing that it's very clearly a soft drink and not just sparkling water. Even self-proclaimed cucumber haters have said that they still really enjoyed the bubbly beverage. While some people have mentioned the product's distinct vegetable taste, if you didn't know, cucumbers are actually fruits. So, Mr. Q Cumber isn't all that different from any other fruit-flavored soda on the market. Coming in a light green bottle, it's made with natural ingredients, namely cane sugar and cucumber extract. The brand doesn't use any artificial colors, preservatives, or high-fructose corn syrup, making it a great alternative to many larger brands. While Mr. Q Cumber is easily enjoyed on its own, its flavor profile naturally makes it a convenient, versatile mixer.

It's a natural pairing for spirits like vodka, gin, and tequila. For a deliciously nuanced non-alcoholic drink, you could pour it over ice and add complementary ingredients like lime, mint, or rosemary. Consider variations of a classic gin cocktail like the gimlet or a summer collins with lemonade. Another option is to combine the soda with gin, elderflower liqueur, and lemon juice. Garnish your drink with a fresh cucumber to enhance the flavor. In terms of food pairings, you could sip on Mr. Q alongside a myriad of meals, from a chicken salad sandwich to a crunchy cucumber salad or a light pasta dish like Ina Garten's weeknight favorite broccoli and bowtie pasta. The fresh flavor will likely go nicely with many veggie-focused recipes containing ingredients like cherry tomatoes, another natural cucumber pal. So, where can you pick up a bottle? According to Mr. Q Cucumber, the soda, which appears to be sold in both 7-ounce and 12-ounce bottles, is sold at Total Wine & More and The Fresh Market. It can also be found at smaller specialty markets and liquor stores across the United States. Should you end up loving it, you can even grab a Mr. Q Cumber bulk 24-pack for the whole family from major retailers like Walmart and Target. Read the original article on Chowhound.

Springfield consumers react to incoming tariffs on Mexico, Canada
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. – Tariffs on Mexico and Canada begin Tuesday, March 4, along with an increase for tariffs on China. 'The tariffs, you know, they're all set,' President Donald Trump said. 'They go into effect tomorrow.' President Trump said he has decided to move forward with 25% tariffs on nearly all goods imported from Mexico and Canada. The 10% tariffs already on China will also go up to 20%. 'I'm against the tariffs,' said Springfield resident Ida Moncrief. 'I think that it's going to raise everything so high.' Total Wine & More building Springfield superstore Moncrief said she is worried about how these tariffs will impact people on social security like herself. 'This is not the first time that tariffs have been used in our governments,' said Springfield resident Tracy Thomas. Thomas believes if there needs to be a rebalance, then it should take place. 'It's a complicated subject because our economies are interwoven,' Thomas said. 'On the other hand, the burden can't only be borne by the United States.' Trump also announced incoming tariffs on steel and aluminum that would increase the price of items like cars and appliances. 'We already support our government and the tariffs aren't going to help anybody but the rich,' Moncrief said. 'And that's not fair to the normal Americans like us who work for a living or have Social Security. It's not fair. We can't afford it.' Whataburger opens in Branson, hiring 65 local employees 'Some things may go up, some things may come back down,' Thomas said. 'Other manufacturing may be stronger in the U.S. on those things that we presently depend on, Mexico, for example. So I think we can expect a rebalancing.' Trump said the countries trying to take advantage of the United States will be punished by these tariffs. 'It's a very powerful weapon that politicians haven't used because they were either dishonest, stupid or paid off in some other form,' Trump said. 'And now we're using them.' 25% tariffs on steel and aluminum are planned to take effect on Wednesday, March 12. Trump also announced tariffs on external agriculture products that would begin in April. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
