The Double Cola Company introduced SKI Citrus Soda on August 10, 1956, in Chattanooga, Tennessee. After a series of trials, the team eventually discovered the ideal combination of orange and lemon flavour.
National SKI Citrus Soda Day is annually observed on August 10. It is a day when SKI fans and new customers congregate to purchase their citrus-flavored soda of choice. While today is dedicated to celebrating the citrus flavour, the true hero is you, the customer. It’s about the loyal consumers they’ve attracted over the years who have always cherished their products. SKI’s founding company, Double Cola Company, encourages everyone to enjoy an SKI beverage while reminiscing about happy times spent with friends.
The Double Cola Company introduced SKI Citrus Soda on August 10, 1956, in Chattanooga, Tennessee. After a series of trials, the team eventually discovered the ideal combination of orange and lemon flavour. Two years later, in the summer of 1958, SKI was eventually registered and introduced to the market. The name was conceptualised by employee Dot Myers, who suggested the names ‘Ski’ and ‘Skee’ after a skiing excursion to Chickamauga lake inspired her. It proved to be an enormous success.
Multiple bottling facilities in numerous states, including Alaska, Alabama, Georgia, Indiana, California, Missouri, North Carolina, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, Utah, Ohio, Virginia, and West Virginia, were responsible for bottling the soda. The public embraced the flavour immediately due to its authentic citrus taste and reviving qualities.
In 1962, Fairmont Foods acquired Double Cola Company, necessitating packaging modifications for SKI. They now include the colour blue in the slogans “The Perfect Beverage” and “Summertime, Springtime, Wintertime, Anytime.”
The Double Cola Company inaugurated the National SKI Citrus Day holiday in September 2020. Its mission is to recognise the 62-year history of the citrus-cola flavour, as well as the loyal consumers who have supported the company throughout the years. While this is a celebration of the soda flavour, the company wishes to use this occasion to acknowledge each and every American who has purchased a soda and contributed to the company’s current success.
Enjoy the refreshing qualities of SKI Citrus to relieve your thirst. It is made from real orange and lemon, which is bound to please your taste buds.
