Boga is a popular brand of fizzy drinks from Tunisia. It's made by a company called Société de Fabrication des Boissons de Tunisie (SFBT). The name "Boga" is a clever mix of two French words: "Boisson" (which means beverage) and "Gazeuze" (which means fizzy or carbonated). Boga comes in four exciting flavors.

Discovering Boga's Flavors
Boga offers four main flavors, each with its own special taste and look.
Boga Lim: The Zesty Choice
The Boga Lim is a clear, colorless drink. It has a sweet and tangy lemon-lime flavor. Many people say it tastes similar to other popular lemon-lime sodas like 7 Up. You can easily spot Boga Lim by its mostly green packaging.
Boga Light: A Lighter Option
Boga Light looks and tastes a lot like Boga Lim. The main difference is that Boga Light uses an artificial sweetener instead of sugar. This makes it a lighter choice. Its packaging is mostly blue.
Boga Cidre: A Unique Taste
Boga Cidre is a dark brown drink. Even though "Cidre" means cider in French, this drink is not made from apples. Instead, it gets its unique flavor from carob extract. People often describe its taste as very special, sometimes like banana or even Root beer. Look for Boga Cidre in its yellow packaging.
Boga Menthe: The Refreshing Mint
The last flavor is Boga Menthe. "Menthe" is the French word for mint. This version is bright green and mixes the lemon-lime taste of Boga Lim with mint syrup. This gives it a cool and distinctive mint-lime flavor. Its packaging is mainly dark green.
