Milkis is a nice beverage too but doesn't go down as easily imo (as it's slightly carbonated) 2% is a personal favorite too (but you don't see much of that in esports) | ||

Milkis is like a creamier drink, good though if you don't mind that kind of yogurty drink. asian people tend to be okay/fond/used to it. | ||

Be precise with the 1L measurement, you don't want to get it watery or too concentrated - but I'm using it right now and it tastes just like the original (minus the metallic taste you get from the metallic cans :3) So damn worth. | ||
