This was my first time trying Oronamin C. It had a very refreshing taste overall, with a sweet-and-sour flavor that went down smoothly without being overly sweet. The light fruity aroma and ice-cold taste made it especially refreshing in hot weather. Every sip felt energizing, and even people who don’t usually like overly sweet drinks would probably find it easy to enjoy.

Oronamin C Drink
A carbonated nutritional drink known for its " Genki Hatsuratsu! (Full of Vitality)" slogan.
Since its introduction in 1965, this national carbonated nutritional drink has sold over 35 billion bottles in Japan. It contains the vitamin C equivalent to 11 lemons, as well as B2, B6, essential amino acids for building the body, and honey. The yellow color of Oronamin C Drink is the original color of vitamin B2. Also, the bottle is brown to protect the vitamins. It is loved by a wide range of generations, from small children to the elderly, with its moderate sweetness and refreshing taste. It is recommended to taste it as it is, or mix it with milk, orange juice, yogurt, etc.
The bottle is palm-sized and has been diamond-cut to prevent slipping when wet, making it easy to drink.

My dad was worried about strong side effects from his vaccine, so the expert recommended extra vitamin C and B vitamins. We ended up buying a whole box of these drinks. 😓
