Sanpellegrino Pompelmo sparkling grapefruit drink

Sanpellegrino Pompelmo is a premium sparkling grapefruit beverage that traces its origins back to 1899 in the town of San Pellegrino Terme, located in the heart of the Italian Alps. The brand was established by the Società Anonima delle Terme di S. Pellegrino to bottle the region's famous mineral waters. The Pompelmo flavor belongs to the 'Aranciata' and fruit-based carbonated range which became a staple of Italian refreshment culture in the 20th century.

The product is manufactured in Italy, specifically at the historic production sites in San Pellegrino Terme, Lombardy. For decades, the brand has maintained its reputation for using high-quality Mediterranean fruits.

Ownership of the brand transitioned to the Swiss multinational Nestlé in 1997. As of 2026, Nestlé remains the ultimate owner, though it has recently initiated a strategic process to sell a stake in its water and premium beverages division, which includes Sanpellegrino, to private equity investors to focus on higher-growth categories.
