If your pee is this color, drink more water. This is not a good color.
I didn't even know this existed until a few years ago. The original version isn't sold in my country, even though there are like 10 different varieties of Listerine available in stores.
Oh I've never seen that. Wonder if they changed it to make it look less palatable.
No, I think it’s because blue is associated with cooling. The blue is mint flavored, the yellow very much isnt
There are other colors
Yeah apparently used to be golden colored. Which I'm surprised by because I was always under the impression that companies were required by law to make non-edible liquids, such as disinfectants, look unpalatable. Perhaps that's just an EU thing.

Which is why drinkable is not the right word
I think the term is potable.
