Tsk, tsk, Mola. I doubted your word (who, me? I know, right?!) and went to look it up... turns out it is also called Dasani in the UK, or at least it was.

Dasani was launched in the UK on 10 February 2004. The product launch was labelled "a disaster",[4] a "fiasco"[5] and a "PR catastrophe".[5]

Early advertisements referred to Dasani as "bottled spunk" or featured the tagline "can't live without spunk". These slogans were used seemingly oblivious to the fact that spunk is slang for semen in the UK.[6][7]
