Cucumber Pepsi in the Land of the Rising Sun
It’s a cool & refreshing drink
AP reports today that Pepsi has launched a new flavor over in Japan – Ice Cucumber Pepsi!
AP reports that…
The soft drink, which hit stores here on Tuesday, doesn’t actually have any cucumber in it – but has been artificially flavored to resemble “the refreshing taste of a fresh cucumber,” said Aya Takemoto, spokeswoman of Japan’s Pepsi distributor, Suntory Ltd.
“We wanted a flavor that makes people think of keeping cool in the summer heat,” Takemoto said. “We thought the cucumber was just perfect.”
The mint-colored soda is on sale just for the summer and only in Japan, Takemoto said.
Gotta say, I suspect it’s an acquired taste!
