Japanese Beverages (2)

I had been biking all day and after my water bottle went empty I started buying drinks out of vending machines. There bottles were only about half the size of a normal soda can.

1.) Mixed Nacter - A combination of grape juice and nectarines. Wow! It was tasty. I think it only had 23%!j(MISSING)uice in it though...so it probably wasn't very healthy.

2.) King of Mango - The best drink I've had since coming here. I bought it at a Lawson Station (like 7-Eleven) and popped it open as soon as I walked out the door. It was gone within a minute. It was a bit thicker than just regular drinks as there must have been mango puree in it. This company also makes a drink called "King of Grapefruit" which is also very good, and it has tons of pulp.

3.) Kagome (Original) - Somewhat like V8/Odowalla but it has a greater variety of fruits. From looking at the pictures on the side of the bottle and doing some research online, I've gathered that there are 25 fruits and vegetables (Apple, Orange, Lemon, Carrots, Spinach, Asparagus, Red Pepper, Chinese Cabbage, Cressen, Squash, Red Cabbage, Broccoli, Petit Vert, Beet, Red Beefsteak Plant, Celery, Lettuce, Nappa Cabbage, Kale, Parsely, Eggplant, Onion, Radish, Cabbage). It tastes more fruity than vegetabely (is that a word?). Really good though.

4.) Kagome (Burgundy Berry Blossom) - Thicker than the original and made from strawberries, purple carrots, raspberries, blueberries, beets, apples, carrot, spinach, parsley, watercress, lettuce, cabbage, and lemon.

If you see any Kagome products in your supermarket I suggest you give it a try. They've all been really good tasting so far. Here's their website: http://www.kagome.us/Default.aspx
