You know, that pink pop. I have a can of Fanta cream soda, and it says “No artificial flavours or colours, Made with real fruit”. I don’t care about whether it’s made with real flavouring or not – I just don’t get what it’s supposed to taste like.
The ingredients list concentrated grape juice and “natural flavour”. I don’t think it tastes like grape, or any other fruit, for that matter. What do you think it tastes like?

Carbonated Cream with a soupcon of mystery.
Hmm…how to describe…it doesn’t really taste like any fruit, really. Kind of tastes like what I imagine liquid vanilla icing on cakes would taste like.
Have you ever had a root beer float? It’s a root beer with a scoop of vanilla ice cream in it. When you get down to the last bit of liquid that is a mixture of the two, it’s sort of tastes like that.
The cream soda I like is a light brown in color and tastes like vanilla.
To me it tastes exactly like those bright pink or orange sugar wafer cookies. these things.
@Blueroses Aaah goddamn do I ever hate those things lol. Especially the pink ones.
I think it tastes like ice cream.
I think it definitely tastes like vanilla.
I agree with vanilla and, remarkably, so does Wikipedia
But the origin of the drink is curious . . . I also like that there is variability in this beverage around the globe (South Africa’s green version was particularly interesting to me).
Maybe we have a cultural conundrum here. Maybe Canuck Cream is diff from Yankee Cream. A point to ponder.
Most of the time it’s pink, but I remember having A&W cream soda once and it was clear, and definitely had a vanilla flavour. I think I’ve also had Jones, which was clear. Their orange cream soda is the bestest!
The kind we buy tastes like a buttery sugar cookie. It’s a tan color
Good cream soda to me tastes like vanilla. I like Jones’ soda.
Vanilla, although I though the color was light brown.
The only kind I’ve had is A&W Cream Soda, and I agree with @Pied_Pfeffer that it tastes like a root beer float.
I’ve never had any cream soda that tasted like fruit at all, maybe they’re just using the grape juice as a sweetner, instead of sugar. It generally tastes like vanilla with maybe a tiny bit of a lemony hint to it.
Cream soda isn’t supposed to have fruit in it 0_0
Cream soda is my favorite drink as per this question and it tastes kind of like vanilla.
vanilla. pass the can again please…
Vanilla cotton candy is what it taste like to me.
actual: vanilla
metaphorical: summer
And old fashioned, glass bottled cream soda (in the US) looks like clear (slightly yellow) root beer. We have it at he farm I work at.
My favorite of the sort, however, is birch beer.
Oompah Loompah’s mouthwash?
Tastes like vanilla to me. I like Dr. Brown’s version.
