Pepsi Really Had
It
Real Gusto. That's exactly what Caleb Bradham's new drink
for dyspepsia had.
And back then in New Bern, North Carolina, he made it taste
real good! It went down real well, too, and folks
loved it for more than just an upset stomach! That
was in 1893. Six years later, Bradham bought the name, "Pep
Cola" from another
cola company gone bankrupt, changed the name of his "Brad's
Drink" to "Pepsi cola," and Pepsi was on
its way. |
