Dongwon Plum Drink

 

This is the Dongwon Plum Drink, which contained green tea as the main component, as well as concentrates of plum, apple and monk fruit.

Consumed chilled, slight apricot-like notes of the green plum came through at the head of each sip, yet stayed only briefly before giving way to the more mainstream sweetness of apple juice in the body. The presence of the monk fruit concentrate became evident for a slight medicinal hint ahead of the aspartame in the finish leaving a sickly sweet aftertaste coating on the palate that lingered very long. The notes of green tea were difficult to detect and the overall experience of this plum drink was unpleasant, chiefly because of the aspartame that left a bad aftertaste and made the drink sickeningly sweet, dulling the tart flavour of fresh green plums that usually makes it enjoyable.  We preferred the Woongjin Green Plum Juice.

This Dongwon Plum Drink contained 1.5 L. It was produced in South Korea and purchased in Sydney, Australia.
