Trying Jinro Peach Soju for the first time - 참이슬복숭 🍑

Hello!

I tried soju for the first time so I wanted to make a post about it! :)

I've been wanting to try it for a really long time, I'd heard that other people really liked it so I'm glad I managed to find some- in a Tesco (chain grocery store in the UK) of all places!

I used my cute strawberry cup to drink this peach soju so I wanted a nice picture of the bottle with my cup haha, a peach mug would have been more fitting though.

I love this little frog on the bottle! The label art is really cute.

I read here that Jinro Soju is made of Jinro rice, tapioca and barley. Although Soju was originally created with just fermented rice.

This page says that it's best enjoyed cool or over ice, but I drank it cool (from the refrigerator) the first time I tried it, the second time I've drank it, I included some ice because I prefer it like that a lot more- I love having icy drinks.

Here is the label of the bottle.

This drink was tasty! The overall peach flavour of the soju wasn't sickly or overpowering, I think it's really enjoyable in small amounts. My go to drinks (when I rarely do drink) are gin, wine or cider! I think the Soju was similar in taste to gin.

Image Editing for this post:

I love editing pictures, I find it really fun! I've been trying to find my style with this so the pictures I post here are somewhat similar in style to each other! I went with a Poster/Postcard sort of style for this, I made it look cute but not overwhelming, sort of minimalistic with some flair I guess!

I used Canva to edit these, as it's free and relatively easy to learn.
