Ribena solbærdrik

Ribena is a renowned fruit juice brand originating from the United Kingdom, specifically known for its blackcurrant-based drinks. The brand's name is derived from the Latin term 'Ribes Nigrum,' meaning blackcurrant. Ribena's history dates back to the 1930s, and during World War II, it was sold in England to hospitals and distributed as a free dietary supplement to children due to the scarcity of citrus fruits. In 1948, Ribena was introduced to Denmark, becoming a popular blackcurrant drink among Danes. The product is primarily manufactured in Denmark, with local distributors such as Wolt Market and Danmark med Posten handling its production and marketing. The brand was originally owned by GlaxoSmithKline, a British multinational pharmaceutical and consumer goods company. As of 2026, Ribena is owned by Keurig Dr Pepper, an American beverage and coffee company headquartered in Burlington, Massachusetts, USA. Keurig Dr Pepper's diverse portfolio includes various beverage brands across multiple categories.
