Imagine I give you several opaque cups and you can’t see the color. If you can successfully identify them all by taste alone, you don’t win anything, just have an old dude telling you he’s pretty impressed.

For a lot of them, yes.

However: There are some flavours that taste identical but come in different colors. Particularly the various shades of blue. At least 3 of them taste exactly like orange juice.

Red, white, orange, yellow, purple, and green all taste unique. Fruit punch, cherry, weird af orange, lemonade, grape (white or red depending on how deep the purple is), and granny smith apple.

I always found it weird that they have blue ones that taste like actual OJ, but the orange gatorade tastes like Tang or something orange flavoured but not actual OJ.

I can easily differentiate between that frost light blue one and the normal darker blue

Oh that reminded me they also have a "blue cherry" flavor which is the same flavor as the white, but it's blue. I accidentally got both white and blue cherry once, not realizing I got blue cherry (thought it was just the default blue that tastes like OJ) and was annoyed that I just got two of the same thing.
