I remember being 16 years old at a seasonal haunted house with my friends.. There was a huge josta "street team" or something like that with a huge pick up truck just giving away hundreds and hundreds of cans of Josta! It was great, we kept trying to smuggle away the Josta in our coats, pants anything we could fit it all in! It was a great time, we vowed it was the greatest soda we had ever had in our entire life...Now I sit here almost ten years later WHERE ARE YOU JOSTA?!? Dear God I need that drink back in my life I crave the liquid orgasm contained in those cans!!! HELP ME PEPSI!!! Please everyone rally and bring it back for us all!!!!

02.02.2006 Dude,
The first time I tasted Josta, it was at a festival in Cleveland, Ohio and they were giving out of a pickup truck for free. Never in my life before this have I ever been given something, so this is a fond memory for me since I loved it. Anyway, I have been wondering what the hell happened to the best pop on earth and I finally found this site. I would love it if Pepsi would bring Josta back. It was the only pop that didn’t make me sick to my stomach and it tasted 100 times better than any other pop out on the market. When it was being sold, it was all I ever bought and still would be, but unfortunately some people in the business world have misplaced their heads in their butts, so we’re all screwed due to a few people who just don’t care. I would bathe in it. Maybe they took it away because of a few Guarana addiction rumors. I’ve heard that some health food stored removed it from their shelves because kids were “getting high” off of it and soon after that, Josta disappeared. I wish I could swim in a pool of Josta and drink it all. *sigh*

Hey man whats going on? I am josta nut fanatic and I have been dying to taste one now for a long time!!!! How is the struggle going to bring this heavenly drink back??? Is there anything I can do to help?? I signed the petition!!! I am over here in TX and I can remember the first time I tasted josta. It was great, so I bought it again and then it was unbelievable...I was hooked!!! Thats all I drank all day everyday. Then it slowly started to disappear and I could only get it at k-mart. I used to buy them 4-5 12 pack at time! Then this on Saturday the bomb was dropped on me that it was gone and alI I had was one 12 pack left. Well I made that 12 last 6 months then I was screwed! I tried all other brands all kinds...NOTHING!! Thats why I finally decided to take it a step further and find out what every other josta lover out there is doing about it! Is there any merchandise Iike that shirt..please let me know....is there really no where to get even a sample of the greatness anymore/?

Thanks for starting this Josta campaign. I'm totally on board.On your Josta website, you say that you don't think that Josta was available in 6 packs 12 packs or 2 liter bottles. Well, I'm sorry that you didn't get to enjoy the more reasonably priced packages. In Houston we could purchase the cans by the 6 pack, 12 pack, or even in 2 liter bottles. Shoot! They even sold the cans for awhile in my College's (University of Houston) vending machines!!! I can't tell you how many Josta sugar/guarana highs helped me get through Architecture school all-night work fests.Even though I could get the cans, I usually liked the 20oz bottles. Josta is one of the only drinks I think tastes better in the bottle than the can. You could put it in the freezer and often it wouldn't get solid until your tongue touched the liquid. The taste of Josta WHILE it freezes! Then you would have like a Josta ICEE!!!! Oh man! What Ecstasy! (By the way, you can do this to many drinks like Coca-Cola. But none of them are as good as Josta was.)
