Dr. Brown's

It is popular in the New York City region and South Florida, but it can also be found in Jewish delicatessens and upscale supermarkets around the United States and in English-speaking neighborhoods in Israel.

[2][1] According to former marketing director, Harry Gold, a New York doctor used celery seeds and sugar to invent the soda and celery tonic now known as Cel-Ray, which was advertised as a "pure beverage for the nerves".

[4][5] In 1929, the owner of Dr. Brown's merged with the Carl H. Schultz Mineral Water Company and Brownie Chocolate Drink to create the American Beverage Corporation.

[6] Canada Dry Bottling Company of New York acquired Dr. Brown's in 1982.

Former flavors include Cola, Orange, Grape, Tune-Up (Lemon) and Club Soda.
