While those new to Pocari Sweat may find the name odd, this Japanese sports drink is totally iconic! From convenience stores to animes, Pocari Sweat is all over Japan! So, what makes this Japanese beverage so popular? Its balance of ions (electrolytes)! It mimics the electrolyte concentration in the human body, so it can quickly replenish what your body needs after perspiration. Non-carbonated and having a slightly sweet and citrusy taste, this is the perfect refreshing drink!
