Weird Japanese Drinks
Today, i am gonna do a continuation of weird japanese stuffs! weird japanese drinks!
First up, Pepsi Ice Cucumber flavour! It was introduced to the Japanese market and vending machines in 2007. Its green and sounds "cooling". need i say more? hahaa
One of my favourite drink is Calpis but this is not your usual calpis. This is the Hot Calpis! I first discovered calpis when i was holidaying in Japan and fell in love with it! i usually buy it from Meidi-ya in Liang Court! My friend from America once told me that Calpis is called calpico in America because of the way calpis sounds! Calpis tastes a little like Yakault but not as sour. Some vending machines in Japan sell Calpis steaming hot! maybe in the winter season... would like to try it though!
Coolpis is actually the Korean copy of Calpis! It comes in peach flavour and .... KIMCHI flavour! WOW! The thought of it makes me feel like gagging! NOT trying this!
Forgot or curious what breast milk tastes like? hahhaa now you can try it again! Wholesome and Natural! I can imagine a factory with women sitting there squeezing their milk out in cartons. YUCKS but good for mothers too busy to feed their babies! hehe
After drinking some breast milk, head on down to the Black Vinegar Bar! my dad will love this! Black vinegar is noted for its health benefits but the trouble is to make it drinkable. The way my dad does it is to drink it in one gulp like a shot of vodka. I tried that before and my face cringed! Well, now you can mix it into a variety of juices like blueberry, blood orange or even soy milk! Cheers to good health!
Speaking of good health, now you not only can eat your salad but drink it as well! introducing the Water Salad! Water Salad is, yes water that taste like salad! you know the stuff u get when u spin your romaine or baby spinach in the salad spinner! We normally pour it down the drain but the smart people at Coca Cola decided to put it into cans and sell it! even comes in different flavours.....
For those SERIOUS about dieting, here comes Diet Water! hhahahha ! maybe it has zero calories or something? not sure but im sure it will be a waste of money!
Know someone that lives,breathes and eats RPG games like final fantasy? Now you can add 'drinks' to the list with the Final Fantasy Potion Drink! Not sure if drinking will restore your health or energy level. Drink at own risk!
Nothing wrong with coffee, but something wrong when your coffee is called Deepresso! So is it a coffee that is the opposite of expresso, or a coffee to make you feel depressed?
Another funny name coffee brand! God Coffee! so we serve it with communion wafers?
B.J. Coffee. no explanation needed.
Lastly, the Kid's Beer. well, nothing wrong with drinking alcohol-free beer because i tried those malt drinks before. But kid's beer is just crazy! A simple malt drink marketed as kid's beer is very successful in Japan so i guess their marketing tactics worked!
