PSA: Fanta was created to give the Nazi Germany a soft drink since the German Coca Cola was cutoff from distribution (getting ingredients to make Coca Cola) during WWII.

I got a bottle of Irn Bru a couple weeks ago. Been eying it for years, but didn't bite due to the high price, and electric orange color. Tastes like orange cream. It's ok, but it's weird "national drink"(Scotland).

Peach Fanta is actually one of my go-to flavors at the Coke Freestyle machines. That & Lime Fanta, yummo!

You should have read that link before you posted it.

Fanta originated as a result of difficulties importing Coca-Cola syrup into Nazi Germany during World War II due to a trade embargo. To circumvent this, Max Keith, the head of Coca-Cola Deutschland (Coca-Cola GmbH) during the Second World War, decided to create a new product for the German market, using only ingredients available in Germany at the time, including whey and apple pomace – the "leftovers of leftovers", as Keith later recalled.
