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.

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.

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.

I don't suppose they were in development considering making it more green. I'll have to try that out. Shiso pepsi.
