Calpis water (カルピス・ウォーター;), sometimes called Calpis for short, is a Japanese soft drink.
The name Calpis was actually constructed by combining cal from calcium and pis from Sanskrit sarpis (good taste).
Due to poor marketing and failure to localize for English-speaking markets, the beverage has unintentionally earned a humorous reputation among some English-speaking peoples due to the similarity of the name with the phrase "cow piss" and because the white color of the beverage resembles semen.
