Sinalco

From WikiMD's Wellness Encyclopedia

Sinalco is a popular brand of non-alcoholic beverages that originated in Germany. The brand is owned by the Sinalco International Brands GmbH & Co. KG, a company that has been in operation since 1905. The name "Sinalco" is derived from the Latin phrase sine alcohole, which means "without alcohol".

History[edit | edit source]

The Sinalco brand was established in 1905 by Friedrich Eduard Bilz, a German inventor and naturopath. Bilz wanted to create a non-alcoholic beverage that could serve as an alternative to alcoholic drinks. He partnered with a local businessman, Wilhelm Siemons, and together they developed the first Sinalco beverage, a carbonated lemonade.

In 1924, Sinalco introduced the first orange-flavored soft drink in Germany, which quickly became popular. Over the years, the company expanded its product range to include other flavors such as cola, apple, and grapefruit.

  • Sinalco Cola: A cola-flavored soft drink that is one of the brand's most popular products.
  • Sinalco Orange: An orange-flavored soft drink.
