pocari sweat 

Strange, tangy supposedly 'soft' drink from Japan which, according to the blurb on the can, replaces the electrolytes lost through perspiration.
The sensation of actually drinking the stuff is like putting your tongue on the twin terminals of a 9v. battery.

Pocari Sweat is Japanese Coke to Calpis' Pepsi.

Pocari Sweat 

A Japanese soft drink tasting mildly of lemons, goes for about 800 won typically (in Korea).
Ridiculously popular for its mediocre taste.

"Man, I could really use some pocari sweat right now! This heat is killing me".

Pocari Sweat 

A drink originated from Japan. Very sweet but also weird in taste. Not for everyone.

Most english comments on how could anyone with their right mind can drink something call "sweat".

That wapanese just finished his fifth can of Pocari Sweat! Jesus!
