New Energy Drink

EDM Energy Drink??

I got an energy drink called EDM Energy Drink with Myungsoo Park on.
He is a famous comedian, DJ, MC, and singer. And also performs in the top rated comedy variety show called Infinite Challenge for more than 10 years.
I believe that the reason why it named EDM Energy Drink is he loves EDM (Electronic Dance Music) and runs his own label company. Moreover, he made EDM songs in the Infinite Challenge show with Korean favorite singers, G-Dragon in Bigbang, Jessica in Girls' Generation, and IU. Song competitions were parts of a show, but there were ranked high on the chart. Many people think EDM reminds him.

Anyhow, this new drink was caught my eyes, and I got it although it had a strange or funny name on.

Description
This sparking energy drink contains Lime extract, Guarana extract, red tea extract power, etc. Taste is similar as general energy drinks, but it has more lime flavor, I guess.

Light Bulb Shaped Soda

Weird looking or funny looking soda?

I found a soda in a light bulb shaped bottle at GS 25, the convenience store in Korea.
You have choice between Blue Lemonade and Blood Orangeade. Blue Lemonade that I chose was not much different from any other Blue Lemonade, but it was fund to drink it.
I heard it was sensational product in this summer at Hongdae area(Hongik University area, known as young generation street and one of the place you must visit in Korea)
Store got selections of soda, Schisandra Chinensis fruits, Blue Lemon, grapefruit, Green Grape, and Apple Mango.
In the marketing point of view, I think it is very successful to catch up customer' sight.
It is bigger size and there is crushed ice on top. I will visit the store later to try real one.

Burdock Root Tea

Have you tried Burdock Root Tea?

I have never seen Burdock Root Tea in the store although I had many times at home.
Taste is not strong as like I had, but a light taste is OK to try. ^^

Mostly burdock root is julienned and braised with soy source and sugar to have as a side dish with rice or rolled in Kimbap at home and is well known to reduce toxin from your body.
