What we have here is a Mixed Alcoholic drink for those of us on the run. It has a mixture of coke with a splash of Vodka in it (about 5% alcohol). It seems to be running about 100 -150 yen per can which is not too expensive for a mixed drink. Kirin has created these drinks and is using Meisa Kuroki to promote this beverage. Hell, I would try it just because of her alone.
I can't taste test it here in the US, but I was able to find someone who did. Here is a direct quote from their testing:
"The taste was horrible to my tongue. It tasted like cola-flavored cough medicine. It seemed like someone mixed too strong cola syrup with some sort of alcohol and didn't carbonate it very much." Orchid64
I am sure they are using a generic coke flavor for the beverage which I have always hated the taste of myself. I am always amazed by the varity of drink and food mixtures that come out of Japan. One of my earlier blogs was about Kit Kats which still boggles my mind.
