Retro Find: Dr. Brown’s Soda
Posted by: kate / Category: General Information, Homefront Reenacting, Retro FindThis from Wikipedia: “Dr. Brown’s dates back to 1869 when their famous Dr. Brown’s Cel-Ray soda was commonly sold in New York delicatessens.[1] This soda was originally developed by a doctor who treated immigrant children in NY. The seltzer that helped these children contained celery seeds and sugar. Dr. Brown’s has been sold as a bottled soda since 1886.”
Can you just imagine? Celery soda? THEY STILL MAKE IT!!! Dr. Brown’s sodas now come in six flavors- Cream Soda, Cel-Ray, Black Cherry (my favorite), orange, ginger ale and root beer. The Black Cherry and Cream Soda are also available in diet. Dr. Brown’s soda is typically sold in 12-ounce cans and in one-liter and plastic bottles as well as two-liters in Black Cherry, Cream, and Root Beer flavors. Dr. Brown’s soda is also available in a 6 pack of 8 ounce glass bottles. Did we mention it’s kosher? Yep. It’s even kosher!
