Sprite is a transparent, lemon-lime flavored, caffeine free soft drink, produced by the Coca-Cola Company. It was introduced in the United States in 1961. This was Coke's response to the popularity of 7 Up, which had begun as "Lithiated Lemon" in 1929. It comes in a primarily silver, green, and blue can or a green translucent bottle with a primarily green and blue label. In 1978, Sprite became the market leader position in the lemon soda category. Sprite is very popular in Canada as well. The annual sales rate of Sprite in Canada is 15 million per year.
Sprite became popular in marketing in the 1960s through 1970s when they started making advertisements for the soda pop which was soon referenced in songs. Sprite also became popular through the late 1970s through early 1980s, when they made slogan ads for the pop. In the late 1980s, Sprite became popular through the teenage group.
During the 1990s, the soda started to be featured in TV and radio ads. In 2000, Sprite commissioned Temper to design a can which saw the design on 300 million cans across Europe. During 2005 the company changed its logo, then again in 2009
