I got this together with the Pear Soymilk by Fukuren. This Kyoho Grape Soymilk also features real juice. Besides Kyoho grape juice, there's also apple juice as an ingredient, although its amount is less than the grape juice.
This didn't affect the drink's color though - you can see in the picture via the sample drawn up in the straw that it is a normal soymilk colour.
The taste was really not to my liking, however. Firstly, it was too sweet, which explains why it attracted the bad health label grading. Sugar was the second ingredient after water, ahead of soybeans.
Second, I think the apple juice made it too sour, so it was more like a yoghurt drink, and tasted exactly like the grape flavored Yakult. For that matter, it seemed quite artificial, but it could be just that Kyoho grapes have a prominent and characteristic flavor.
Verdict: Overall, I didn't like it and wouldn't recommend it. The common grape Yakult is probably slightly better nutritionally due to the probiotics. If you want to try fruity soymilk, Pear Soymilk by Fukuren wins hands down.
