Westerners might describe the Calpico Fizz as a “Tom Collins with yuzu and Calpico.” In Japan, it might be classified as an updated version of “Chu-hi,” which is essentially a shochu highball. Chu-hi is a common drink found in many izakaya around Japan, coming in different varieties such as Calpico Chu-hi, Oolong Tea Chu-hi and many more.
