You may remember last year’s Pepsi flavor, Ice Cucumber Pepsi, that took Japan by storm was forgotten after a few weeks (thanks). Today, Pepsi has released their new summer flavor called Blue Hawaii.
The taste? This time Pepsi went with fruits as opposed to a vegetable. It tastes like a mix between pineapple and lemon.
Maybe later on in the season, Peter from JList will put a few cases in his inventory so we can enjoy a taste of Blue Hawaii in America. Via Japan Probe.
UPDATED: Billy from 7:10 to Tokyo just went out and bought a few bottles of Pepsi’s Blue Hawaii. Check his review of Blue Hawaii to see what he thought of it.
That’s funny you just posted this; I just saw a huge display of it at my neighborhood 7-11. Didn’t buy one, though. Think I might walk back down there now, though.
By the way, That Pepsi Cucumber crap lasted only a couple of weeks here in Tokyo.
I just went back and got a couple of bottles. Check out my review of Blue Hawaii at 7:10 to Tokyo or http://billywestevolution.com
Thanks for the review! I wish companies were as daring here in the states to run limited edition flavors.
Yeah, I will give the Japan side credit for being daring. When it comes to Kit-Kat, there are some pretty nice offerings here, like sakura Kit-Kat and blueberry Kit-Kat, both delicious.
Pepsi, however, keeps shooting blanks.
Cheers!
I feel like I watched an anime where they asked where it came from…
I think it’s either Lucky Star or Azumanga Daioh.
