Kinnie ((:kinːiː)) is a soft drink from Malta. It was first developed in 1952 by Simonds Farsons Cisk. Kinnie is amber in colour, has a bittersweet flavour, and is drunk straight or mixed with alcohol to create a long drink. ==History== Kinnie was first produced in 1952 as an alternative to the cola drinks that proliferated in post-war Europe. Kinnie's recipe is kept secret. However the official website provides further information about its ingredients, suggesting that Kinnie owes its bittersweet taste to a blend of ''Mediterranean chinotto bitter oranges'', combined with an infusion of a dozen different aromatic herbs and spices such as anise, ginseng, vanilla, rhubarb and liquorice. As the health awareness increased over recent decades, a ''Diet'' version for Kinnie appeared in 1984. In 2007, a new low calorie version of Kinnie called ''Kinnie Zest'' was made available. This has a slightly darker colour and a stronger orange flavour, and is advertised as only having one calorie per bottle. The latest Kinnie variant is Kinnie Vita which is naturally sweetened using a blend of sugar and stevia leaf extract. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kinnie」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
