Fanta!
Fanta is manufactured by Coca Cola for international markets. It is best known as orange soda, although it comes in grape, lemon, lime and other flavors. Until it comes in banana, orange is this monkey's flavor of choice.
In the period leading up to World War II, between 1930 and 1936, Coca-Cola
set up a division of the company in Germany, and continued that venture
during the war. It recreated its image as a German company and allowed the
Germans to produce all but two, secret, Coca-Cola ingredients in their own
factories. In 1941 the German company's president, Max Keith, developed
Fanta orange soda using orange flavoring and all the German-made Coke ingredients.
For the full story of Fanta's origins in Second World War Germany, read "For God, Country, and Coca Cola : The Definitive History of the Great American Soft Drink and the Company That Makes It" by Mark Pendergrast (Basic Books).
