ANN ARBOR, MI – When mother nature gifts me with perfect temperatures and sunny skies, I have to take advantage of it and get out into the city.
I was happy to see Little Kim within walking distance and open for business during lunch and ventured out to get my daily dose of sugar.
I always try new things and couldn’t resist the words, “plum soda” on the menu and ordered one to-go. Plums have never been on my radar, but man, they pack some delicious flavor.
My wife loves plums and after trying the soda, I have bitten into the juicy fruit that holds both sweet and tart flavor. They remind me of an overgrown cherry crossed with a grape.
The soda was spectacular giving that extra flavorful touch from the real Japanese Apricot syrup they mix into ever soda. I have a full review in the related link below.

The wonder of a city like Ann Arbor is that new and exciting things you can bump into on a stroll. I wasn’t looking to try something new for the first time, but it found me, or maybe we both crossed paths.
Little Kim is a great place to pop in to try something during your lunch hour. I’ll be back for food and another plum soda.
