Yet again another story from our friends in the Far East and it’s been announced that Coca Cola will be expanding their product line with Green Tea flavoured Cola-Cola. The flavour is due to be available for general sale on June 8th in Japan and well let’s just say Pepsi wants in on the act.
Read on for pictures and more after the jump plus Pepsi’s rather disgusting rival
According to a spokesman at Japan Coca Cola, “We wanted to cater to people who are looking for something that tastes good but is also good for health and beauty,”. Now anybody else raise their high brow as high as I did when you read this? I certainly did. This is ‘supposedly’ meant to contain antioxidants called Catechins which sounds more like a South African Pokémon to me personally, and is targeted at health-conscious young women between the ages of 20-40.
Not to be outdone by their market rivals, Pepsi have responded by launching their Basil flavoured Pepsi called Pepsi Shiso. Now really, Basil flavoured? Are you kidding me? If those people were really all that bothered over Green Tea or Basil why not just drink some actual Green Tea or cook up a Salad. But who knows, I wouldn’t be surprised if this really did take off.
