Okay, so I have come across the means to sample just about every major "jdm" drink there is to offer and i'm going to take advantage of it. Every day or so, i'll buy, sample, and review the major players in the japanese drink market. Some will be quirky and some will be downright disgusting but that's why i'm here, to educate you in the art of picking out that tasty beverage with the pretty graphics you can't read.

Ok. So to kick things off, Today we'll start with a relatively new product from the crazy guys at Sapporo. It's called "fruitmilk", loosely. here's what it looks like:
At first glance, you notice the happy little fruit on it with bright colors and cartoony characters stating the contents of well, milk and fruit. well, kind of fruit. you see, even though the ingredients SAY water,sugar,milk,orange,pineapple,applejuice, and skim milk; there are ZERO amounts of vitamins A and C, and no calcium or iron. But once you taste it, you wonder how Sapporo made it taste like it's a good amount of fruit. At first it tastes light, orange seems to be the more dominant taste of the bunch. as you continue drinking it, you feel the sensation like you're drinking fruit flavored bubbleyum. while it's tasty and goes down easy and not extremely sweet, I'll have to give it...
3 out of 5 stars. while tasty, it's not for everyone and I cant see it going well with any kind of japanese food.
Join me later this week for more tasty goodness...coming soon: UCC coffee, Calpis water, Melon drink death battle, and the green tea gauntlet!
