Coca Cola is about to launch its first alcoholic drink. The beverage giant is keen to cash in on the popularity of alcopops... in Japan. So, it might be a while until it reaches our green shores. But we're definitely interested to try it. Chu-Hi (canned sparkling flavoured drinks mixed with a local spirit called shochu) is on the rise over in Japan, and Coca-Cola is planning on trying out its first alcoholic drink over there. The product is typically between 3 percent and 8 percent in alcohol. Senior Coke executive in Japan, Jorge Garduno said: "We haven't experimented in the low alcohol category before, but it's an example of how we continue to explore opportunities outside our core areas." It is said that Chu-Hi is an alternative to beer over in the country, and it has become majorly popular with women. However, as the world gets increasingly health-conscious, alcohol isn't the only thing that the company is cashing in on. Recently, Coca-Cola bought a number of water and tea brands, so you never know... we could be drinking tea-flavoured Coke in the next few years. Would you be interested in trying the alcopop?
