🇷🇴 Băutura: 7 Up este o limonadă cu aromă de lămâii si limete, care nu conține cofeină. Drepturile asupra mărcii aparțin Dr Pepper Snapple Group din SUA.

7 Up a fost inventat în 1929 de către Charles Leiper Grigg. Inițial produsul se numea „Bib-Label Lithiated Lemon-Lime Soda”, și a fost vândut prima dată, cu două săptămâni înainte de marea criză economică din 1929. Acesta conținea până în 1950 citrat de litiu, o substanță utilizată în psihiatrie. Acesta a fost comercializată ca un remediu pentru mahmureala. Numele a fost schimbat mai târziu în 7 Up..

7-UP este marcă înregistrată a PepsiCo. În România și Republica Moldova produsele PepsiCo sunt îmbuteliate și distribuite de îmbuteliatorul autorizat al companiei, Quadrant Amroq Beverages (QAB).

#thebar:I'ma boss, that you can never upstand
Or get a red dot on you, like a 7Up can
Some of y'all caught feelings from way back
Others waited till I came through, short willing the Maybach

🇬🇧 The Drink: 7 Up (stylized as 7up outside North America) or Seven Up is an American brand of lemon-lime-flavored non-caffeinated soft drink. The brand and formula are owned by Keurig Dr Pepper although the beverage is internationally distributed by PepsiCo.

7 Up was created by Charles Leiper Grigg, who launched his St. Louis–based company The Howdy Corporation in 1920. Grigg came up with the formula for a lemon-lime soft drink in 1929. The product, originally named "Bib-Label Lithiated Lemon-Lime Soda", was launched two weeks before the Wall Street Crash of 1929. It contained lithium citrate, a mood-stabilizing drug, until 1948. It was one of a number of patent medicine products popular in the late-19th and early-20th centuries. Its name was later shortened to "7 Up Lithiated Lemon Soda" before being further shortened to just "7 Up" by 1936.

The origin of the revised name is unclear. Britvic claims that the name comes from the seven main ingredients in the drink, while others have claimed that the number was a coded reference to the lithium contained in the original recipe, which has an atomic mass of 7.Britvic also claims that the name alluded to 7 Up 7-ounce bottles when Coca-Cola and most other soft drinks were bottled in 6-ounce bottles.

The 7 Up company was privately owned by its founding families until it was sold in 1978 to Philip Morris, which sold it in 1986 in two parts: the international division to PepsiCo and the US business to a group led by the investment firm Hicks & Haas. In the US, 7 Up merged with Dr Pepper in 1988; Cadbury Schweppes bought the combined company in 1995. The Dr Pepper Snapple Group was spun off from Cadbury Schweppes in 2008; it merged with Keurig Green Mountain in 2018 to form Keurig Dr Pepper.
