New soda drink in Japan


During my usual perusal of websites, I came across this listing at Akihabara News. Fanta has come out with a new drink flavor in Japan. According to the review, its supposed to be a zero calorie drink with extra calcium.

This is not the first seemingly odd drink that we've seen from our neighbors to the far east. There has been the ice cucumber Pepsi and green tea flavored Coke. They are much more adventurous and some may say fool-hearty, with their attempts with new flavors. However, don't let the names fool you as things like Pocari Sweat does not taste too bad if you were ever used to Gatorade Glacier. Soda flavors in the US tend to be pretty tame as all they do is add flavors like cherry to pre-exisiting recipes
