Unlike American soft drinks, Korean soft drinks are much different!

They offer more in the dairy or cream department, and others have a fruity-flavor. Unlike other soft drinks, Korean soft drinks are not terribly sweet.

Here are some of the popular Korean soft drinks that you can enjoy!


Bacchus-D


It is like an un-carbonated version of Red Bull with a Flintstones vitamin pill that gives it a metallic tang. The drink is sometimes touted as a remedy for hangovers in Korea. There is another variety of this drink, Bacchus-F, which has an extra amino acid taurine.
