2017 is just around the corner and so is the annual Chinese New Year. Other than talks about the progress of finding a girlfriend or when you’re getting married, here’s something you can divert the awkwardness to, the next time you talk to your grandparents, aunts and uncles.
Bring back the days of nostalgia of the 1950s and 1960s with POKKA’S Retrolicious Range by handing your relatives one of their favourite soft drinks popular during the kampong days. Re-introducing the classic brands of Green Spot, Royal Crown Cola, Kickapoo and Sinalco Special, these drinks are making a comeback this coming December 2016.
Armed with packs of these fun-filled drinks, we’re sure your grandparents would be delighted to tell you all about their kampong stories during the olden days of Singapore. Probably of how these drinks used to be sold in glass bottles.
Sold Limited Edition in a fun pack of 4 cans of each brand, POKKA is looking forward to bringing back the iconic drinks of the 50s and 60s era. The CEO of POKKA, Mr Alain Ong said that “Green Spot and RC Cola were a big part of many Singaporeans’ treasured memories of the rollicking 50s and 60s, and together with the ever-popular Kickapoo Joy Juice and Sinalco Special, we hope to bring back the good old times of that evocative era to a new generation of soft drink fans”.
Launched during the final Mambo Jambo party at Zouk, Jiak Kim Street on 30 November with many Mediacorp artists such as Pierre Png, Shane Pow, Jayley Woo and Pan Ling Ling, the drinks were introduced from POKKA’s Retrolicious range concocted into cocktails for the party.
Green Spot California Orange
First entered Singapore in 1953, the citrus drink has been a popular drink in many households. Its distinct green logo with orange design quenched the thirsts of many generations during occasions such as Chinese New Year.
Royal Crown Cola
Since 1905, this premium classic has been a top selection for drinkers everywhere. The smooth flow of liquid, together with its frothy richness is no surprise why this is a popular choice back in the past.
Kickapoo Joy Juice
Popular with both the older and younger generation, the bubbly citrus drink remains a top favourite among many drinks.
Sinalco Special
Though the recipe of this delicious fruity drink remains a mystery, it’s no mystery why your grandparents remember this as one of their favourite drinks. The distinctive taste from the essence of four unknown fruits would be a perfect match with Chinese New Year snacks coming 2017.
