Maybe it was the pepsi, maybe it was the lemon...all I can say is that it was tasty. I enjoyed the twist, but even if you are not a lemon fan, you may still enjoy the soda as the lemon is really overwhelmed by the actual pepsi. I found that I enjoyed this particular drink warm rather than cool, and also found that the taste could actually leave a bad feeling in your mouth after drinking more than one can. Although it was tasty, I cant recommend it to anyone who prefers a heavier syrup based soda. Like regular pepsi, it is much lighter than coke.
