Summary
America tastes like coca-cola.
Artificial flavor and fizz bursting on Ilya’s tongue, so much sugar it makes his teeth ache. Bright red cans with a giant logo splashed across them. Loud, too—hissing when he pops the cap, and then a staticky whirr of bubbles that goes on buzzing as the cold aluminum sweats on the counter.
And that’s America: bright, loud, full of sugar and caffeine and chemicals. Pure junk that kisses back when it hits his tongue and sparkles down his throat. Once he moves to Boston, Ilya orders it everywhere. He cannot get enough.
—
An exploration of home through Ilya Rozanov’s favorite drinks.

Russian vodka tastes like despair. No wonder America can’t get it right. America has heartache of its own, but no country has perfected the art of despair like Russia.
