Faxe Kondi facts for kids

Faxe Kondi is a popular soft drink from Denmark. It is made by a company called Royal Unibrew. This drink is often sold as a sports drink because it contains both glucose (a type of sugar) and regular sugar. Faxe Kondi has been around for a long time, first made in 1971. When it first came out, it was sold in bottles that looked like beer bottles. This was because the company that made it, Faxe Bryggeri, mostly made beer.
Over the years, Faxe Kondi has added many new types of drinks. You can find a version with no calories called Faxe Kondi Zero Calories. There are also three energy drinks in the family: Faxe Kondi Booster, Faxe Kondi Booster Blue, and Faxe Kondi Booster Red. Since 2016 or 2017, a special Summer edition comes out every year. This limited edition has a different flavor each time. In 2023, an orange-flavored version called "Faxe Kondi Appelsin" was launched, and it also has a zero-calorie option.
From 1996 to 2001, the Faxe Kondi name was used to sponsor Danish football leagues. The top league was called the Faxe Kondi Ligaen, and another league was known as the Faxe Kondi Divisionen.
