I’ll just break off for a second from Japanese entertainment to report on the new disgusting flavored Pepsi drink which will hit Japan’s convenience stores from June 23rd.
After previous years’ Ice Cucumber and Blue Hawaii comes Pepsi Shiso which will have a minty kind of flavor. I’m actually looking forward to trying it out when I head over to Tokyo in July.
EDIT: I did get to try this drink out and it wasn’t too bad. The taste reminded me at first of a medicine I had as a child. I got used to it in the end and it was enjoyable. I’d easily have downed another bottle of it if I had one.
