Orangina () is a lightly carbonated beverage made from carbonated water, 12% citrus juice (10% from concentrated orange, 2% from a combination of concentrated lemon, concentrated mandarin, and concentrated grapefruit juices), as well as 2% orange pulp. Orangina is sweetened with sugar or high fructose corn syrup (glucose fructose) and in some markets (such as the United Kingdom) with artificial sweetener. Natural flavours are also added.
Orangina was innovated by Spanish pharmacist, Agustín Trigo Miralles, as Naranjina in the early 1930s. He subsequently sold the formula to Léon Beton, a French businessman based in French Algeria, in 1935. Today, it is a popular beverage in Europe (especially in France and Switzerland), Japan, North Africa, and to a lesser extent in North America. == History ==
