The Beginning

The first time I tried Milkis was actually few years back, when I was working in Busan, Korea. It is a soft drink but with a different taste, quite similar to Vanilla flavor and I like it very much.  A can of Milkis was actually selling about 500 ₩ to 1000 ₩. After I came back to Malaysia, I seldom see this product selling here, other than those Korean minimarkets in Ampang area. Fortunately, I found this in Jusco (Mahkota Cheras) today, but it is relatively expensive, selling at the price of RM 9.50.

I still bought a bottle back, as this is good and strongly recommended to others. I did some Google/Wiki on Milkis, and found some interesting facts about this soft drink.

Milkis (Hangul:밀키스) is a soft drink produced by Lotte Chilsung, a Korean beverage company. It combines many of the common elements of traditional carbonated beverages such as corn syrup, sugar, and carbonated water with milk to create a creamy taste; its label proclaims “New feeling of soda beverage”. Milkis is available in orange, strawberry, mango, melon, banana, and classic (regular) flavors. It is a popular beverage in South Korea, and it remains widely available worldwide.

However, both final duo in World Cup 2006, Italy and France were  disqualified and eliminated  from the game. if you miss one of the group matches, you can still catch up with the highlights from here.

Last night, Uruguay and Ghana has beaten their opponent with the same score, 2-1, and take up 2 seats in the Quarter-Final. They will play each other next week,on 2nd July 2010. Two more seats will be determined after today, from the matches, Germany vs England and Argentina vs Mexico.
