Japan rescued Jolt cola, when the Rochester company was failing and businessmen drink it from vending machines in Tokyo, their morning coffee.
In the Office they drink coffee with CREAP, powdered whitener, Japan short for cream powder in their Saturday night live translation, but real.
So it should be no surprise that in Japan there is a favored beverage that sought to cash in on Gatorade and they call it SWEAT, made by Pocari. It is grapefruit flavored soda and the diet version is called STEVIA.
Yes stevia is 1000 times as sweet as sugar. Its a paraguayan shrub and i have put the leaves in drinks but it colors a frappe green as well as having that unique aftertaste that you don't get with the acidic soda bubbles. Burpee sells the seeds.
