Pepsi Blue is a soda made by PepsiCo and launched in mid-2002, and also it's made becuase the blue color is from indian cricket team, the result of taste-testing over 100 flavors over a 9-month period[1] [2]. Designed to compete with Coca-Cola's Vanilla Coke[3], it is considered by some to be the company's second equivalent of New Coke, after the much maligned Crystal Pepsi[4]. The taste of Pepsi Blue was like cotton candy with a berry aftertaste (it resembled that of blueberries or raspberries to some, though Pepsi simply described it as "berry") and much more sugary and syrupy than regular cola. It was colored using Blue 1[5], a highly-controversial coloring agent banned in numerous countries at the time. The move to make a brightly-colored version of the flagship Pepsi brand was spurred by 2001's introduction of Mountain Dew Code Red, which had bumped PepsiCo's Mountain Dew division sales up 6%[3].

Although heavily promoted by PepsiCo (including advertisements by the pop singer Britney Spears[6] and the bands Sev[7] and Papa Roach[8], as well as in the movie The Italian Job (2003 film).), it is widely seen as a commercial flop as sales remained low. Even with the failure of Pepsi Blue, PepsiCo still managed to post double-digit growth[1]

After PepsiCo shut down production of Pepsi Blue, it forwarded the Pepsi Blue website to Stacy's Pita Chips, another PepsiCo division[9].

Pepsi Blue was promoted after New York Mets games during the summer of 2002, where the color blue was one of the symbolic colors of the ballclub.

Pepsi Summer Mix has been known to have a taste close to what the Pepsi Blue has. Jolt makes a similar beverage called Jolt Blue, a blue raspberry soda with taurine, guarana, ginseng, B vitamins, and added caffeine.
