Wang Black Sesame & Bean Soy Drink

Sunday, October 11th, 2009

That’s what it says on the box. It’s even in French: Boisson de Soja (saveur noire de sesame).  검은 깨, 콩  까망두유

Such a cute drink box. Contains just 6.4 fluid ounces (190 ml).

One side of the tetra pak has the Korean 순두유 (soon-dooyoo), which literally means pure soymilk (as opposed to their walnut-peanut variant and black soybean flavor).
