Asia is a brand of sarsaparilla produced by Chinese private corporation Xiangxue Pharmaceutical via its subsidiary Xiangxue–Asian Beverage.

However, the brand was still owned by Guangzhou Municipal People's Government (via GLIG).

Asia's sarsaparilla was considered as a collective memory of the citizens of Guangzhou, Guangdong.

Along with its sister brand "Pearl",[nb 1] they also exported to the nearby British colony Hong Kong since 1960s, in various kind of favour, such as Apple.

The new joint venture also rented the factory from the government which was owned by Guangzhou Asia Beverage.
