Josta was the best drink ever invented! I miss it so much!

[chaseman94]

I didn't even know back then it was an energy drink. But it was the 90's so who cared. Wish I could go back there.

I wonder whether there are still a few unopened bottles in the world.

I remember this commercial.. My friends Dad would drink this stuff religiously. We found a 12pk in my friends garage a year after it had ended and it was delicious. This is one soft drink I miss a lot

Josta was the best shit ever to exist. why do they have to discontinue all the good stuff?

A good looking guy like that kid could get rapped in jail. BTW,i'm straight as an arrow.

PepsiCo should just re-release Josta or at least re-launch it under the Mountain Dew brand. Picture this: "Mountain Dew: Josta"....... "Josta Dew It! (just 'dew' it)"

@Binarykode Impossilbe to make Josta Reborn now, since SoBe Dragon has been discontinued.
