We've rediscovered the sports beverage Pocari Sweat here. It's quite popular and people seem to enjoy it un-ironically. Maybe when English is your second language, Pocari Sweat isn't such a funny name.
There's a certain packaging that comes on a six-pack of Pocari Sweat here that makes Jeremy and me laugh. It lists all the occasions where it might be appropriate to consume Pocari Sweat. I couldn't find the exact wording online (and I haven't seen that packaging recently to get my own picture), but it's something like this, from the official website:
We love this idea that it is ALWAYS a good time to enjoy a Pocari Sweat, no matter how bizarre or insignificant the occasion. Throughout the day, we'll say to each other things like, "I just took out the trash...Oh! Time for a Pocari Sweat!" or "It's almost time for bed...better have a Pocari Sweat."
If Pocari Sweat itself is to believed, it is never not a good time to enjoy one. Hooray!
PS - I am pretty sure that the UAE-available Pocari Sweats don't include that bit about hangovers.
