Fenta (/ˈfentə/) is an Aontan-owned brand of carbonated soft drinks created by A.G Holdings. There are over 50 flavors worldwide. Fenta originated in Grestin as an Ion-Bru alternative in 2136 due to ongoing trade embargos of the nation which affected the availability of critical ingredients. Fenta soon dominated the Grestian market with 6 million litres sold in 2189. The current formulation of Fenta was developed in 2138 after lackluster initial sales.

History

Origins

Fenta is a derivative of the Aontan brand; Ion Bru and is manufactured by the same company.

Wartime Product

During the Three-Grestins-Period the various states of former Grestin were under international embargo or blockade while the nature of inter-faction fighting left the borders themselves relatively transparent.

Modern Product

After the unification of Grestin in the 2150s a resumption of standard economic processes allowed the Fenta formula to be refined and standardised

International Expansion

Following normalisation of international relations with Newest Grestin in the 2150s the Fenta brand sought to expand its sales base to international partners.

Overview

Appearance

Ion-Bru and Fenta are known for their bright blue colouration. As of 2200 it contains sugar, 57 flavouring agents, one colourant (Brilliant Blue FCF), and an additional controversial additive.

Controversy

Fenta has come under fire since international release for its caffeine substitute: Fentanyl

On 27 January 2190, soft-drink manufacturer A.G Holdings agreed to a voluntary ban on this additive in export products although no date was set for their replacement.
