    I was a kid growing up in 80s Japan & they had this drink called “Calpis” and it was milk and orange soda. And yes, the Japanese pronounced it like “cow piss”. I hated it.

      Calpis isn’t carbonated tho, at least none of the Calpico branded stuff I’ve had. Milkis is very similar and is carbonated, so it would probably be closer to this. Personally I like both Calpico and Milkis, they are definitely not my favorite but they are good to have every once in a while, owing especially to their unique taste.

      We also had a milk-orange jus drink in france in the 2000’s. Absolutly disgusting. Danao, launched in 1998, nerver consumed by anyone, still available today!

      I had it about 10 years ago in Japan. It wasn’t that bad and basically a yogurt morir soñando like in the Dominican Republic.

      Pocari Sweat was worse. It tasted like its name.
