Ideal Bite

It's the real thing. Obey your thirst. Whatevs. Boulder-based Oogavé makes soda that just tastes really good. It comes in offbeat flaves (subtly sweet Watermelon Cream, where have you been all our lives?) - as well as old standbys like frothy Rootbeer and a biting Ginger Ale. Oogavé uses bottling equipment it rescued from a defunct Pepsi plant. And its ingredients are things like fruit extracts and organic agave nectar - instead of resource-intensive refined sugar or high-fructose corn syrup (both of which often come from GM crops). The cola even gets a little caffeine boost from green tea leaves (but you can't taste 'em). Sweet. Awesome. Etc.
