KRACIE (Foods Company) announced that it will launch a new flavor of its long-running soft candy MENTOS, called MENTOS COLA, nationwide starting Monday, June 8, 2026, at supermarkets, drugstores, convenience stores, and other outlets.
The product was developed as a new cola flavor based on a previously offered cola variety, with its taste profile redesigned to capture the refreshing and invigorating feeling typically associated with cola beverages.
With a crisp crunch at first bite, Mentos Cola delivers a full, refreshing cola flavor that quickly expands across the mouth, making it suitable for moments when users want to refresh their mood. By adding subtle accents of lemon, ginger, and cinnamon, the flavor profile gains additional depth while preserving the classic cola character. The refreshing profile is designed to help shift mood, and awaken inspiration and excitement.
KRACIE has been running the campaign “#MENTOS Cola Oe-tai” with video creator Hajimeshacho since January 2026. The campaign is designed to playfully explore the well-known reaction that occurs when Mentos is dropped into cola, where foam erupts. Because this action can be dangerous, Hajimeshacho was instructed not to do it despite being appointed as an ambassador. For this cola-launch campaign, however, a video advertisement will feature Hajimeshacho introducing the new product and will incorporate a memorable scene with his signature line “sorewa a(t)tta ka” tone, further supporting the launch.
