Green River (soft drink)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Green River is a bright green, lime-flavored soft drink produced by the Clover Club Bottling Corp. of Chicago. The drink was developed in 1919 by the Schoenhofen Brewery of Chicago as a non-alcoholic product for the prohibition era. It was popular for decades as a soda fountain syrup. The drink is now produced by a bottler in Chicago, Illinois [1]. It is frequently marketed as a nostalgia item and can be found in 1950s themed restaurants.
The soda pop was named after the "Green River" that can be seen once a year on St. Patrick's Day, when the Chicago River is dyed green.
Ingredients: carbonated water, high fructose corn sweetener, citric acid, natural lime oils, yellow #5, and blue #1. There is also a diet version, without sugar.
