So Coca-Cola Japan is a little late to the party with its late-January launch of its brand-new Coca-Cola Strawberry.
For a brief moment, the scent reminded us of cherry Coke, but there it was: the distinct tart twist of strawberry.
However, when we poured it into a glass (because we’re fancy like that), we learned that Coca-Cola Strawberry is the same deep brown color that the regular flavor is.
Despite how sweet Coca-Cola Strawberry smells, though, it’s not syrupy or cloying in flavor, and the base cola flavor isn’t drowned out by the additional strawberry elements.
In the end, the best thing about Coca-Cola Strawberry is that it’s a legitimately enjoyable soft drink.
