Slice is a soft drink manufactured by PepsiCo. It is a lemon-lime drink similar to Squirt or 7 Up. It also comes in an orange variety. Originally, the drink was known for containing 10% fruit juice in it; but that was discontinued by 1994. The line appears to have been replaced in most markets by "Tropicana Twister Soda", although the Dr. Slice variety can still be found in some fountains.

Varieties of Slice have included Apple, Fruit Punch, Grape, Lemon Lime, Mandarin Orange, and Slice. Many of the flavors close mirror that of Crush, a product of the Dr. Pepper/7up company.

The original design of the can was a solid color, related to the flavor of the pop. These were replaced around 1992 with black cans, with a colorful burst (once again, related to the flavor of the pop), along with slicker graphics. Around 1997, the cans became blue; with color-cordinating swirls.

Lemon Lime Slice was replaced by Sierra Mist in most markets in the summer of 2000.
