The description
It is a carbonated cola drink with cherryvand vanilla flavour. I found it by accident at Donki in Shibuya while lining up for the cashier at the food floor.
The good
I enjoy drinking cola drinks and am always open for new flavours. Back in Germany I liked the vanilla cola and the cherry cola from a certain huge brand, so I was actually excited to find a drink combining both in one. For 106 yen it is a good price for 500ml, so I decided to buy it. It actually tastes very good for me! The cherry flavour is quite strong, vanilla rather weak, but I enjoy the combination. Also the design with the hedgehog and the ice cream and cherries is very unique - actually the first reason why I took a closer look on it.
The not so good
As much as I see, this drink is a special from Don Quijote in Japan or at least Donki is mainly selling it - so you can't find this drink everywhere. I am not a big fan of cans. I would buy the drink when I'm outside and a can you can't close again, so you either have to carry it around open, drink all of the 500 ml quickly or get it to enjoy it at home (what I did). Well, other negative point would be the calories. With 53 kcal on 100ml it is an unhealthy sugar bomb like all the other sweet carbonated drinks.
