Limca
300 mL bottle 3.25 g sugar / oz. |
History After multinational beverage corporations were forced to withdraw from India in 1975, local bottlers created their own flavors to fill demand for soft drinks. Limca is a cloudy citrus drink somewhat akin to Sprite or 7up. When Coke and Pepsi were allowed to return to India in 1992, the Limca brand was purchased by the Hindustan Coca-Cola Beverage company. Limca is also known for the Limca Book of Records, a compendium of facts and oddities similar to the Guinness Book of World Records. Review Peppy. Another grapefruit-like soft drink. This one doesn't taste so much like a fresh fruit lemonade as much as sugary astringent citrus. Its hard to place just what the flavor is. Its strong, sugary, fizzy... but flavor? It lacks particulars. Its a refreshing beverage, but so lacking in distinct flavors that its kind of strange. I guess its just an artificial citrus flavor or something. There is no real fruit flavoring in this drink.
