Wow, you’re going to love Calypso drinks. These exotic and tropical flavoured lemonade drinks are mouth-wateringly juicy and totally refreshing.

The original, and now famous, Calypso Lemonade recipe was actually created back in 1985 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, by the owner of the King Juice Company Inc. This American drink brand was built on producing authentic, delicious lemonade made with real lemons and real sugar. 

Through the years, the ‘Original Lemonade’ grew in popularity and in 2000 it was given the name Calypso, inspired by the fruits, flavours and spirit of the islands. That means that this year, the Calypso drink turns 21!

Happy 21st Birthday Calypso!

What are the best Calypso flavours?

This incredibly popular American lemonade drink in the brightly coloured bottles adorned with island foliage is now produced in twenty flavours. There are now lemonade, limeade and light combinations – all based on the Original Lemonade recipe, using real lemon or lime bits, and natural flavours.

We just love Calypso drinks; the flavoured lemonade and limeades are uplifting and delicious any time of the day. The Half Tea & Half Lemonade is a double thirst quenching combination, with the highest quality Calypso Lemonade ingredients and top of the line tea flavours, it’s a must try. 

With tropical names, like Island Wave and Paradise Punch Lemonade you can almost taste the sunshine in each bottle. Other Calypso flavours include the delightful, Tropical Mango Lemonade, Coconut Colada Limeade, Pineapple Peach Limeade and Triple Melon Lemonade, you’ll be sure to find a Calypso Drink that you love.

Do Calypso drinks contain alcohol?

Calypso lemonades and limeades are soft drinks but are the perfect mixers for cocktails and mocktails! Check out this Blue Breeze cocktail using the popular Calypso Ocean Blue Lemonade. This Calypso flavour has three different blue coloured berries (blueberries, blackberries and blue raspberries) plus lemon of course to creates a distinctive flavour with a strikingly blue ocean feel, perfect for the beach or any party.
