Conbini Crimes: Pepsi Pink

By Ken Aichi

After being burned by Pepsi's previous incarnations, I was pretty apprehensive  about even purchasing Pepsi Pink, and didn't really want to drink it, even in the name of science. Growing a pair, I poured a glass and had a taste.

WOW!

As soon as this pink liquid passed my lips, my mind was filled with images of cotton candy, unicorns, pink bubblegum, carnivals and the like. Pepsi seem to have nailed the flavor of artificial "pink" and then turned it up to 11. 

Unlike the previous novelty Pepsi flavors, there are probably some people out there who will actually enjoy this one. Mayuko described it as oishii.

JZ's advice? Make sure you have a glass of water. Or several bottles of whiskey on hand to wash the pink out of your mouth if you dare to sample this.

Rating: 10/10 if you are age 12., then subtract a point for each year of age above that. Pepsi Pink gets bonus points because it's not Azuki.

Conbini Crime factor: PINK! SWEET! SUGAR!!!!!!
