I am old fashioned and get my hydration from plain old H2O. I have to say, thats the most unappealing packing I ever saw. At first glance it looked like some product to clean your bathroom.
@rDub: Portable beverage? I already invented dehydrated water. Just add 4 quarts of dihydrogenmonoxide (be careful handling, DHMO can kill!)to make one delicious gallon of water.
@Rabid Penguin: I disagree with your version of history. Ever wonder what astronauts do when they're not astronauting?
Until 1989, astronauts spent their downtime working in NASA's mines, extracting ferrous tangium, a naturally-occurring radioactive iron alloy. The iron is extracted and used to power the magnetometers at your local library. The slag - known as tangite - is made into pellets and the shipped to NASA's processing facilities. There, Mission Control specialists process the tangite into Tang.
General Foods just packages it. NASA mines it and processes it. It was yet another boondoggle brought to us by the Ford Administration.
This is kind of pointless given the competition. There are thermoses that will keep boiling hot coffee boiling for 8 hours, and f*cking hot for many more. However, the same thermoses are less effective at keeping cold drinks cold for as long a time. The hand crank could be repurposed to power a peltier cooler and then you've got a product.
in europe i got a bottle of lipton iced tea and was very surprised to find out it was carbonated.... then even more surprised when it turned out i liked it [especially since it was bottled iced tea which is generally nasty but i couldn't get water at the moment and was just really thirsty]
since i can't get the stuff in the US i might just try an experiment with something like this product sometime
@OMG! Ponies!: You know whats sad...I have a container that I actualy save bacon grease in, and while its not carbonated, I treasure it for later use. (You have to be a serious cook or from the south to know what I am saving it for.)
The guy who made this needs to win some awards. He needs to win all the awards. They also need to line up everyone who's ever won an award so they can give all their awards to this guy.

I always wanted a portable beverage. It sucks being tied down to a specific location to meet my hydration needs...

I wonder what effect carbonated milk would have on someone who's lactose intolerant? My guess is lots of gas expelled from both ends...

It's a variety of Calpico, perhaps more notoriously known as Calpis.
