History

Founded in 1982 by two employees of the Coca-Cola company Naresh Nagrecha and Vish Vekaria, they began to create drinks in the kitchen of one of the founders. The first product, a sparkling passion fruit combination, was named Passionade. Today the range is available in still or sparkling form, via either cartons or plastic or glass bottles and Aluminium cans.
