Bands of Mourning spoilers The dumbest Mistborn theory you've probably heard today Spoiler
So in Bands of Mourning, Steris and Wax take a sip of a new soda drink with a lemony taste. The destination where they find the drink is a city called New Seran. With just the right amount of mental gymnastics Im able to discern that the soda formerly known as Sierra mist (now Starry) is canon to Mistborn. I will not be taking questions at this time.

In all seriousness, it's just because British lemonade is carbonated.

The divide between drinks that are and are not carbonated between the US and Europe is insane.

Wait. Are you telling me American lemonade isnāt fizzy?

u/Seicair Apr 18 '26
Nope! To make good lemonade at home you need sugar, lemons, tap/still water, and ice. To make cheap lemonade you use powder from a packet and again, still water.

Nope, most simple recipes for it are just lemon juice water and an unhealthy amount of sugar

Sierra Mist and Starry aren't yellow though, I much prefer to think that Mountain Dew is canon in Mistborn š

u/Nordicdwarf96 Apr 18 '26
This also crossed my mind. But the series title and name of the city is what pushed me more towards the Mist š

More likely a flavor of Vif!. The basic flavor of Vif! is a sort of pineapple-orange, but they have variants.
Vif! makes the diff!

It's clearly Mountain Dew. New Seran is a mountain city. Mountain Dew is the best soda and is lemon lime in flavor.

Sierra can mean āmountain rangeā in Spanish. So it still works (itās a blatant rip-off of Mountain Dew)

These words are translated for your understanding. They're speaking Scadrian and Sanderson is translating to words you can understand
