Cucumber Pepsi, Anyone?

June 19th, 2007

The Japanese can stay cool this Summer with "Pepsi Ice Cucumber", a new soda based on the crisp green gourd.

Cucumber Ice!

The soft drink, which hits Japan stores today, doesn't actually have any cucumber in it -- but has been artificially flavored to resemble "the refreshing taste of a fresh cucumber," said Aya Takemoto, spokeswoman for Suntory Ltd.

"We wanted a flavor that makes people think of keeping cool in the summer heat," Takemoto said. "We thought the cucumber was just perfect."

The mint-colored soda is on sale just for the summer and only in Japan, Takemoto said. She said that Suntory aims to sell 200,000 cases over the next three months.
