Orange soft drink

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Orange soft drinks (called orange soda or orange pop in certain regions of the US) are carbonated orange drinks.

Orange soft drinks (especially those without orange juice) often contain very high levels of sodium benzoate, and this often imparts a slight metallic taste to the beverage. Other additives commonly found in orange soft drinks include rosin and sodium hexametaphosphate.

Orangeade first appeared as a variety of carbonated drink provided in soda fountains in American drugstores in the late nineteenth century, brands including Miner's and Lash's. A recipe for home made Orangeade appears in editions of Fannie Farmer's cookbook.It was soon to go against The Coca Cola Company's Fanta.

This makes Mountain Dew a synthesized anomaly that tastes like every citrus fruit, but only contains one actual citrus fruit (orange).
