Mouthfeel and complexity to the flavor are the big differences. Cheap stuff is corn syrup with chemical flavorants. Real stuff is just tree sap with the excess water slowly boiled off.

In college I drank one of the table bottles of boysenberry at a greasy spoon in exchange for paying for my food and seven bucks.
Closest I can imagine going into a hyperglycemic crisis. Would not recommend.
