Frostie Root Beer
The brand Frostie Root Beer dates back to 1939. The brand was earlier owned by Mr. George Rackensperger of the Frostie Beverage Company which is located in Catonsville, Maryland. Mr. George Rackensperger became the President of Frostie Root Beer Company in 1939 and he wanted to open his own bottling plant. So he rented an old discarded jail house in Catonsville, Maryland. He used the jail house’s garage to set up the bottling tools and equipment. He very efficiently improvised and used the jail cells to store sugar crowns. It was in this simple jail house that the big brand of Frostie Root Beer was born.

Frappe Coffee
Frappe Coffee comes in the category of cold beverages. It was accidentally discovered by an employee of the Dritsas Company called Dmitri Vakondios back in 1957 in the International Trade Fair happening in Thessaloniki. Yannis Dritsas was representing the Nestle Company in the Trade Fair. He was exhibiting a chocolate beverage which had been launched by the company especially for children. This chocolate beverage was prepared by mixing chocolate powder in cold milk and mixing it with a shaker. Dmitri Vakondois wanted to have his usual Coffee break. But he couldn’t find any hot water. So taking inspiration from Yannis Dritsas, he mixed the coffee powder with cold water in the shaker. And Lo Behold! Frappe Coffee was invented!
