Well if you love your health stay away from any kind of soft carbonated drink.

Never liked Pakola.
Its Ice Cream Syrup Flavor. And i Hate Ice Cream Syrup based drinks.
Tastes like medicine to me .
But Taste is subjective thing.

I used to buy cases of Pakola cans and drink it every day, but then stopped because of the calories. Last time I had it was a couple of weeks ago at a restaurant. It goes well with karahi gosht.

 

[Jango]

I suck at business things.

What is the difference here between Mehran Bottlers, Pakistan Beverages, Pakola, and who does this guy represent? Are they just owned by the same people but under different names?

It looks pretty big, at least bigger than I imagined. Also more humble beginnings than I imagined.
