Would you try this?

You wouldn't think they could devise a way to make Moxie more polarizing, but they did. It is also a mustard spread.

Raye's Moxie Soda Mustard is a product I had never heard of until today.

Two classic flavors combine to make the mustard you never knew you wanted. This spunky flavor is a little bit sweet and "wicked" tasty. Use it anytime you want to remember the way life should be.

Have you had the experience of drinking a Moxie soda? Their slogan of "distinctively different' is quite an understatement and most of us wouldn't drink it. But the blend of flavors with Moxie works to give a delicious mustard with a bit of a tang.

This delightful product is high in antioxidants, low in sodium, gluten-free, has no cholesterol, no fats or eggs, and no additives.

Some folks on a Maine Reddit thread had some pretty funny comments on this unusual product:

It is actually very good. TBH I couldn’t taste moxie at all. It was just really good stone ground mustard.

Some sins are unforgivable.

Any random YouTube search will always turn up videos of people trying this beverage for the first time, and the reactions are always amusing, especially when they get that first sip down.

One review called it “The worst soda in the world.”

If you need a refresher, Moxie is a soda that is among the first mass-produced soft drinks in the United States. It was created in 1876 by Augustin Thompson, who hailed from Union, Maine.

A sweet drink with a rather funky aftertaste, Moxie is flavored with gentian root extract, which gives it that delightful kick in the shorts that kind of tastes like a medicinal version of Dr. Pepper. Moxie was designated the official soft drink of Maine on May 10, 2005.
