I just bought a 12 pack of Code Red the other day. I first tried it at Taco Bell. Caffeine is one of the ingredients but there is no % info on the can. Interesting, a cherry flavored soda is made from orange juice from concentrate.
I think I heard it was about twice the amount of caffeine as regular Mountain Dew. It is supposed to have the most of any soft drink out there. I tried it and while I liked it....I couldn't drag myself away from the puke green of regular Dew . I guess if I ever need a caffeine boost....I am there. I may try it again. I don't drink coffee.

I stopped drinking the green Dew after rumors started floating about its you know shrinkage capabilities Probably another urban legend.
They ran a 2 for 1 dollar promo for Code Red here in town this summer and got me hooked. I love Code Red! Its definitely the best 'spin off' of another pop.
You know why Code Red is awesome? Because it is NOTHING like Mountain Dew... Everything about Mountain Dew is wrong...the color, the smell, the taste, the aftertaste...Code Red is the exact opposite... Dr. Pepper still beats the heck out of any soda on the market, though...
Code Red is Mountain Dew with cherry flavor added. The caffeine content is the same. In an 8 oz. can, the sugar content is 30 grams and the caffeine content is 37 grams. Mountain Dew with a cherry flavor sounds nasty as hell, though.
I dont like Dr. Pepper however Cheerwine is very good. I have tried Mountain Dew Code Red and it is really good so is Mello Yellow's new Cherry Flavor.
Well, Webber's drinking it while slamming down crazy dunks, and T-Mac's are even sicker. So, hell yeah, it's good.
