Coca-Cola
Designed by the studio behind the Fate anime franchise, the bottle is exclusive to one region of the country.
Eight years in development, the new resealable pouch packaging is said to be a world-first for frozen beverages.
Our roundup of the country’s craziest April Fool’s Day products and services we actually wish were real.
We won’t have to wait until the blossoms appear to enjoy sakura with our Coca-Cola this year.
People in Japan will be the first in the world to find out what the unique flavour combination tastes like.
Each bottle can only be purchased in the specific tourist spot it was designed for, so tracking down all nine requires a Japanese road trip of epic proportions.
Each of the locally-themed designs will be limited for sale in different regions of the country.
The beautifully designed item looks set to be one of this spring’s most popular beverages.
Although they are stopping just short of calling it an actual “health cola,” Coca-Cola Plus is the latest addition to the health-oriented cola war in Japan.
A spinning reel of enticing flavour possibilities was used to introduce the new star ingredient.
We bought some of these special Cokes to see how easily they turn into Christmas presents!
