Looking back on Ruixing's new products two years ago, Foca accounted for almost half, especially after the explosion of raw coconut latte, Lucky launched a special combination of "fruit + coffee", at the same time, with the help of the high popularity of cross-border co-names, it can always become the focus of discussion among a large number of consumers.

For example, the "Guoca C Series", which is highly sought after on social platforms, has successfully recommended more consumers with good wind reviews, which allows Lucky's development team to constantly add new matches to the original.

Just yesterday, Ruixing once again brought the new co-name "drink Apple with Pingu" and launched an Apple-flavored special coffee "Apple C American style", adding new members to the "C Series". Under the current trend of advocating healthy drinks, Ruixing has directly emphasized the standard of "7 zeros" this time. It claims that the product is "0 fat, 0 added artificial pigment, 0 aspartame, 0 lactose, 0 trans fatty acid, 0 plant fat powder, 0 hydrogenated vegetable oil".

According to official publicity, the new Apple C American recipe is not much different from the previous "Foca C Series". It is also a simple mix of concentrated juice and coffee. Although it is old and new, under the dual temptation of new tastes and joint names, many Raymen believers have the courage to try something new and rush to order in the first wave.

According to the feedback posted on the social platform, compared with the refreshing impression of the previous "C-Series Fruit Cafe", Rui Lucky's new Apple C American word-of-mouth is not as good as it used to be. even under the topic of the new joint name, there are constantly emerging "lightning protection stickers" and "dissuasion stickers" about this new product.

According to the bad reviews given by these fruit curry fans, the reason why people think that Ruixing's Apple C American style is "bad" mainly has three aspects: one is that the concentrated base that provides apple flavor is too sweet, and the entrance has a cold throat. Second, this apple juice does not blend well with the flavor of coffee, so it can be said to be particularly separate, so many people think it tastes sweet and bitter, and describes it as "rotten apple soaked in cigarette ash".

In addition, Lucky's "Apple + Coffee" combination also reminds many people of KFC's Apple Bubble American style. It is understood that in addition to NFC juice and coffee, the KFC version also adds enough sparkling water, and the coffee tastes sour, sweet and exciting, so it has also received a lot of praise from "tap water" on social platforms.

On the other hand, the proportion of water is the majority of Ruixing's formula. Shortly after the brand released the news of the new joint name, a shop assistant dressed in Lucky's uniform showed off the practice of Apple C iced American coffee online: pour apple juice 100ml, then fill the drinking water until 7 minutes full, stir, fill with ice and pour in the coffee liquid.

Due to the addition of a large proportion of drinking water during production, although it diluted the sweetness of concentrated apple juice, it also diluted the taste of coffee, making the whole taste "water collapse". As a result, the netizens who compared the two agreed: "this time KFC won completely."
