Pocari Sweat…
Is it just me or is there something inherently wrong with naming a drink with the word “sweat” in it?
Pocari Sweat is a popular Japanese non-carbonated soft drink and sports drink that has been available since 1980 and is wildly popular in Asia throughout.
I’ve actually never had it in my past travels so I decided to try it since there were three cans in my refrigerator upon my arrival. I’m not sure if it’s a connotation to the word “sweat” but it’s something I didn’t really enjoy and more bluntly will avoid in the future. While I was drinking it, I could swear I could taste sweat in there somewhere. =)
