Recently, there has been a real thirst for all things transparent: milk tea, lemon tea, beer, underwear, etc. etc.
And the transparent cokeโs no different. In fact, people positively dig it.
But thereโs just one slight drawback:

It was only available in Japan.
Yeah, you didnโt read wrong. It WAS only available in Japan. Until good old 7-11 delivered some good news to our doorstep.
Heading to Singapore shores
While thereโs no clear importation date indicated, one thingโs clear.
It will hit the shelves of all 7-11 stores in the near future.
And damn if Iโm not excited, seeing how the transparent coke is soโฆ wellโฆ transparent.
First released on 11 June in Japan, the drink promised something different from your usual Coca-Cola fare, as well as a hint of lemon.
Taste
According to reviews, the transparent Coca-Cola tastes just like the original, except with an acquired lemony aftertaste.
And video reviews werenโt adverse either.

And this particular reviewer had an interesting way of describing how Coca-Cola tastes like.
LOL.

50 recipes
According to Kotaku, Coca-Cola actually tested over 50 recipes in its bid to create an all-new clear version of its popular drink, which is made without the signature caramel ingredient but just a splash of lemon and some slight formula tinkering. Health addicts will be overjoyed to know that the drink comes at zero calories too.
Yup, the taste of authentic cola (according to reviews) with none of the cost.
Thatโs like saying you can eat salted egg-buttermilk chicken rice and not get fat.
Thatโs every gym buffโs dream come true, at least according to Goody Feedโs resident fit guy.

Itโs not in 7-Eleven stores. Yet. But you can sure as hell expect to hit the stores soon.
But itโs actually available for delivery in Singapore
Surprise, surprise. Yup, this clear coca-cola has actually landed on the shores of Singapore for a couple of days.
Itโs available for delivery via Redmart and Honestbee.
And since weโre on the topic of hipster food (you got to admit, transparent coke is hipster AF), letโs talk about another hipster food that landed in a well-known brand in Singapore.

Salted Egg Yolk Fried Chicken From KFC
My colleague, yeah, that fit guy up there, was complaining about how KFC Singapore didnโt have any cool food.
And he specifically said that if KFC ever brought in the salted egg chicken thatโs available overseas, heโd forgo all his #fitnessgoals and eat KFC every day.
Well, KFC mustโve fortune tellers working for them because they seemed to have heard his prayers.

The Goldspice chicken
A combination of salted egg, sweet basil and spicy curry leaves, itโs supposed to be โbetter than Goldโ, though we highly doubt that if you have it daily, youโll get a Gold for IPPT.
And we liked it so much we wrote a review about it.
Now you know what Singaporeans are talking about today; do check back tomorrow for another piece of news of the day!
Hereโs what NCMPs are, and what to expect after GE2025:
