OMG! I was just in Japan in July and my hubby and I had this drink from a vending machine outside the subway in Asakusa. It was the most delicious thing we’d ever had. for the rest of our trip we looked in every vending machine we passed hoping to see it again (there’s a lot of vending machines in Japan) and we never found it. We were so sad. We just had the one bottle thinking we would find it again. I’m going to try finding this at the Asian grocery stores here. You’ve inspired me. Thanks for posting that pic. I couldn’t remember what company made it, now I know.

ps. I found the drink to taste quite a lot like honey dew melon, mixed with cream soda and ice cream.

This is quite a up-to-date info. I’ll share it on Delicious.

Kely- Ugh, bubble tea? I had that once, was just too freaked out by the bubbles. Grape soda for sure- I often get Fanta Grape at Mcdonalds. Plus we have Welch’s still grape juice, normally from vending machines.

Misato- True that, melon soda has no connection to melons other than the name.

Billy- I wouldn’t normally drink it out of a can, perhaps only at a drink bar at a family restaurant. This one was good for an experiment, but I won’t be drinking it just for pleasure.

len- Uck, Kirin…

FifthDream- It’s a cool green, no doubt.

I tried the Kirin version once. I thought it was kind of awful and the taste lingered all day.

Always like a sip or two of a Fanta Melon Soda, but I can never come close to finishing one.

I agree, I’m also not a fan of melons, but melon soda is the bets, and doesn’t taste like melons at all! I miss it so much!
