Slice is a soft drink manufactured by PepsiCo. It is a lemon-lime drink similar to Sprite or 7 Up.
Varieties of Slice have included Apple, Fruit Punch, Grape, Lemon Lime, Mandarin Orange, Pineapple, Cherry Cola, Cherry-Lime, and Dr Slice (in imitation of Dr Pepper). Many of the flavors closely mirror that of Crush, a product of Dr Pepper/Seven Up, Inc.
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.
The original design of the can was a solid color, related to the flavor of the drink. These were replaced around 1992 with black cans, with a colorful burst (once again, related to the flavor of the drink), along with slicker graphics. Around 1997, the cans became blue with color-coordinated swirls.
Lemon Lime Slice was replaced by Sierra Mist in most markets in the summer of 2000. Sierra Mist became a national brand in 2003.
