Ski (drink)

SKI is a citrus soda made from orange and lemon juice. It is manufactured by the Double Cola Company.

History
SKI Citrus Soda was formulated in Chattanooga, Tennessee at The Double Cola Company headquarters. The formula was perfected on August 10, 1956. SKI was registered two years later in May of 1958. The product was launched to the public that summer. When coming up for the name, management asked the staff to submit their best ideas. Then employee, Dot Myers, submitted the names SKI and SKEE after being inspired from a weekend Skiing trip on the Chickamauga lake. Management loved the name SKI.

In 1999, the SKI can and logo was redesigned with the phrase "Taste the Wake."

In 2009, the SKI can and logo were redesigned, an online vote was posted on the official SKI website to vote on a selected logo. Along with the redesigned cans, Cherry SKI was re-branded as "SKI InfraRED".

In 2009 the selected can design hits markets with the phrase "Real Lemon, Real Orange, Real Good!"
