Moxie soda is the official soft drink of Maine.
I'm serious here!
One of the first carbonated drinks, it was created by Dr. Augustin Thompson in the 1880's as a patent medicine. According to the good Doctor a rare, unnamed South American plant was discovered by a friend of his - Lt. Moxie.
The resulting elixir could cure "paralysis, softening of the brain, nervousness and insomnia".
Since I have suffered from all the afflictions named above I'm willing to give it a try.
I plan to look at the six-pack for a while though.
