Milkis is terrible, avoid it.
2% peach is great! (called 이프로)
It's one of the few drinks I prefer in a can rather than a bottle though.
The pomegranete juice is great with lots of ice in the summer.
The worst drinks I've had are some of those 'healthy' ones. You should not make mushroom flavored beverages.

All of those Korean drinks are good. The Pomegranate one I was addicted to for a few weeks, but it got to be too sweet for me. The demi-soda is one of the superior soft drinks in the world, I'm convinced.
I tried something for the first time last week at one of those insta-coffee machines. It was a white drink, I think made from rice. I can't remember what it was called but it was fantastic. Anyone know what it's called? |
I think I know what you're talking about. Maybe. Is there rice in it? Like puff-a-wheat? The name escapes me. If so, yeah, it's pretty good. Much better homemade. That's actually up there for one of the nicest drinks I've had in Korea. |

The kind I tried didn't have any rice bits in it, but that may have been because it was from a machine. It was kinda sweet, looked like a thick, yellowish milk. Served hot. |

Maybe it's the same thing I'm thinking about, but I've only had it cold. It's sweet. I think it's called "shikye". |

If it does have bits in it, you should probably see a doctor. |

I still don't get it. Maekju = beer. So is it just some sort of barley that they use to make beer?
By the way, everyone be sure to avoid those weird vitamin drinks. They're so filled with nicotine you'd be better off smoking a pack of cigarettes. |

That's a joke right?
For those who think there is nicotine in bacchus-F or whatever, there isn't. There is nicotinamide in it though. Nicotinamide is not nicotine. Nicotinamide is a derivative of Vitamin B3.
Umm there aren't any drinks that ACTUALLY do have nicotine in them in Korea are there? I haven't seen evidence of any.. |

| I made a mistake in my original post. It's not Sunny Time, but Oran-C. Don't have a pic yet. And it's Oran-C pineapple. Can't remember it there's an orange. Must be. And I think I had it and it was good. |

Aloe juice!
Drank so much of it here.
I can feel the goodness inside.
Swear it cures all digestively.
And tastes mighty fine, addictive. |
Second that. Doesn't it have a lot of sugar in it though?

I'm not entirely sure which brands, just that you usually see them stacked in boxes in pharmacies. The pharmacists get paid a lot of money to peddle them. |
