'Ski' is an orange and lemon flavored soft drink using actual orange and lemon concentrates manufactured by the Double Cola Company. Some have likened Ski’s unique citrus flavor to Mountain Dew, Mello Yello or Squirt.
Due to usage of real orange juice and lemon concentrates, the Double Cola Company claims that Ski is one of the only all-natural sodas.[1]
The Double Cola Company originally created Ski in 1956 and trademarked the soda in 1958.[2] From the original pictures, it appears as though Ski’s name was originally chosen to be associated with water skiing. But actually was named as such because it is a perfect Whisky mixer, and may even have been created with that goal in mind.
Another type of ski, Cherry Ski, was added to the product line thanks to the creativity in Breese, IL, a location for the Excel Bottling Company [1], a Ski bottler. In Breese, Ski can be found on tap at [Wally’s Drive In (http://stlouis.citysearch.com/profile/35321972)] and Dairy King.
In 1999, the Ski can was redesigned and now reads, "Taste the Wake."
