Kirin Tropicana Coconut Water

 
About
Kirin Tropicana Coconut Water is a non-carbonated sweetened drink that contains 15% coconut juice. This "renewed" version was first sold on April 21st of 2015, after the previous version was sold on July of 2014.
Kirin Tropicana is a joint venture between Kirin, a famous Japanese brewer and the famous PepsiCo of the United States.

Taste
The taste is smooth and velvety, just like what you would expect from coconut juice. It is a bit sour, compared to regular coconut juice, perhaps due to the citric acid.
Since I've tasted real, 100% coconut juice, I must say that this drink is a bit watery and sour in comparison. However, if you look at it as "coconut water", the wateriness can be justified.

Kirin Tropicana Squeeze - Key Lime



The drink recommends that you flip
it upside down once before drinking.
About
Tropicana Squeeze Key Lime is a carbonated soft drink sold by Kirin-Tropicana, a joint venture between Pepsico, Inc. and Kirin Holdings Company, Limited.
The drink contains 11% lime juice and uses only sugar as a sweetener.

Taste

The drink is not so sweet and the taste of the key lime is fragrant and strong. The slight bitterness of the zest can also be tasted as well. It tastes natural, and does not taste artificial at all.

Review
Overall, I got the impression of a gourmet drink, a drink you might find in a restaurant or bar, made with freshly squeezed lime. I think it's definitely worth buying for the price.
