Details
The iconic Pepsi Challenge is BACK now featuring Pepsi Zero Sugar—and it’s touching down in Denver for the holiday weekend!
It’s true – Pepsi® Zero Sugar tastes better and is more refreshing than Coke Zero Sugar based on a nationally conducted taste test. The Pepsi Challenge has been traveling across the country and so far 100% of markets have preferred the taste of Pepsi Zero Sugar. Now Denver has the chance to step up take the challenge and let their taste decide.
From Friday July 4 to Sunday July 6 the challenge will be LIVE at multiple locations throughout the city.

- Taste and Decide: Participants sample both cups taking their time to decide which they prefer.
- Make Your Choice: Participants select their favorite cola triggering unique celebratory moments for those with great taste.
- Score Pepsi: Pepsi will reward all participants with free Pepsi Zero Sugar because even those with questionable taste deserve a second chance.
