Ezorisu SJ'er with 1000+ posts Registered: Wed Jan 04 2006 Posts: 1712 Loc: Hawaii and Sapporo	Anyone try the Green Tea flavored Coke or the Shiso Pepsi yet? The Coke is odd, but not terrible. The Pepsi is pretty close to being downright awful. _________________________ The word "Lisp" has an "s" in it... That's harsh.

Why anyone with a sense of taste drinks it is beyond me (but then so are a lot of other things, so it might just be me!) _________________________ "The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple."

muikabochi SJ'er with 5000+ posts Registered: Sat Nov 13 2004 Posts: 5503 Loc: Muikamachi, Niigata	Had some of that shiso pepsi in Nikko. Fluorescent green! It was refreshing, but at the time probably anything would have been because it was hot and sticky and I hadn't had a cold drink for quite a few hours.

Ezorisu SJ'er with 1000+ posts Registered: Wed Jan 04 2006 Posts: 1712 Loc: Hawaii and Sapporo	It is good as tempura, but it is most common as a condiment or presentation with sashimi... it's that serrated green leaf. In the West it's called "beefsteak leaf" or "Perilla", or something to that effect. It is also common in Korean cooking, but is usually incorrectly called "sesame leaf" if translated into English. _________________________ The word "Lisp" has an "s" in it... That's harsh.

scouser SJ'er with 5000+ posts Registered: Thu Apr 04 2002 Posts: 6943 Loc: near enough Tokyo	It's certainly green. I don't suppose they were in development considering making it more green. I'll have to try that out. Shiso pepsi. Sounds odd. _________________________ Some people believe football is a matter of life and death. It is much, much more serious than that
