Kirks Originals Orange Zero Sugar soft drink

Kirks is a historic Australian soft drink brand that dates back to 1859. It was originally established by the Kirk family in Queensland and became a household name across Australia for its range of uniquely flavoured beverages, such as Pasito and Creaming Soda.

Today, the brand is manufactured locally in Australia to maintain its traditional taste profiles while reaching a national audience. Although it began as an independent family-run operation, the brand was eventually acquired by major beverage interests. It currently sits under the ownership of Coca-Cola Europacific Partners (CCEP), a multinational bottling company that manages many of the brands originally developed or distributed by the Coca-Cola system. This ownership structure ensures that while the brand remains quintessentially Australian in identity and production, it benefits from a global distribution and management network.
