Pocari Sweat

Though vending machines that dispense sushi haven't quite caught on Japan, vending machines for this stuff are everywhere. It's a non-carbonated soft drink with an odd fruity flavor.

Except they call it "Refreshment Water". It also comes in a dry mix sort of similar to Gatorade. I should mention that the vending machines also feature beer, wine, hamburgers, cigarettes, and ice cream.
I hear they have Hotel Room Vending Machines of a sort in Tokyo. Stick with Squirt or Citra -- the brominated vegetable oil won't kill you too soon.

I have come into the posession of an empty can of Pocari Sweat through the grace of Stephanie, who accidentally left it in wuukiee's car after drinking it. It is simply wonderful to have around. In my opinion, everybody should have some empty japanese soft drink cans.
