Following Pepsi's release of Cucumber flavored soda drink in 2007, Pepsi Japan has released yet another flavored drink called Pepsi White. A very curious combination of caffeinated soda and plain yogurt. Looks like a competition to the very popular Calpis Soda in Japan which has been around for years, though is not caffeinated. It is great to see Pepsi experimenting with limited-edition flavors to get a test for the market. However, why are these test releases primarily done in foreign markets? Is it because Japanese love their drinks or is it because America is very conservative on new products? In the past Japan has released many interesting soda flavors such as the Ice Cucumber, Blue Hawaii, Pepsi Gold, Pepsi Red, and many more. Link to reviews
