A sports drink brought to you by Vitalon.

Unfortunately, I don't think you can get it widely outside of Taiwan. For years I could have sworn it was green, because it comes in green-tinted plastic bottles or green and blue boxes. In fact, it is clear. It has a nice, sportsy, Supaoish taste.

Vitalon sponsors the Super Supao road race, in Taichung and maybe elsewhere, every year. It is one of the island's biggest road races, drawing thousands.

I couldn't believe it when I found this stuff at a Chinese grocery Chinatown, Philadelphia. It's the same stuff made in Taiwan but labeled for export.

Ingredients: Water, Sugar, Fructose, oligosaccharides, Glucose, Vitamin C, Citric Acid, Sodium Citrate, Sodium Chloride, Potassium Chloride, Magnesium chloride, Calcium Lactate, Grapefruit Favour.
