Finally, it’s time to savor the taste of the universe. Taking a sip, it is definitely different from regular Coca-Cola. The carbonation is mild, and it has the smoothness reminiscent of drinks like Milkis or Ambasa. The sweetness is much stronger than zero colas, and as you continue drinking, a subtle cherry aroma emerges. The taste is surprisingly familiar, similar to the cola-flavored candy snacks often seen in childhood. A candy flavor that skillfully blends cola, milk, and cherry...
