Zandukeli lemonade has a history deeply rooted in Georgian tradition, dating back over a century. Established in 1914, the Zandukeli brand was born in Georgia, at a time when carbonated drinks were still rare in the region. It owes its name to Mikheil Zandukeli, a Georgian pharmacist who developed the first recipes for this unique lemonade, based on natural and local ingredients. Early versions of lemonade were often made with Georgian fruits and herbs, such as tarragon and pear, which gave these drinks a distinct flavor compared to more classic European lemonades. Over the years, Zandukeli has become an iconic brand in Georgia, appreciated for the quality of its ingredients and respect for traditional recipes. Today, Zandukeli lemonade is still produced in Georgia and is exported to several countries, remaining true to its roots by using natural ingredients and a recipe inherited from tradition. It is one of the most representative drinks of Georgian gastronomic heritage.
