The description
This product is a peach ice bar, and it's a seasonal item available from Family Mart (they usually stock them each summer). It was priced at 198 yen including tax.
The good
Peach is one of my favorite seasonal summer flavors, and I love the peach ice bars that are often stocked at convenience stores in the summer. This one from Family Mart comes in at just under 200 yen, and the big selling point with this one is that it contains 45% peach juice! Because of that it feels super light and refreshing, so I think it's perfect for hot days when you want something cooling. I also like that they use domestically sourced peach juice for this (from Fukushima). I'm always a fan when local ingredients are incorporated in nationwide sweet treats at convenience stores.
The not so good
My only real downside with this product is that it's limited to the summer season. The flavor is so good and it's such a refreshing icy treat that I wish it was a year round thing. I would recommend stocking up on a few to keep in your freezer if you have the space and find yourself really enjoying them! If you can't find an ice bar like this at your local Famima, I would recommend checking other convenience store chains, too -- they almost always have some variation of them, and while it might not be peach I've seen other flavors at this time of year like mango and pineapple.
