The Finnish Long Drink and its legendary story begins in 1952 when Finland hosted the Summer Olympic Games in Helsinki. To welcome global visitors, the country mixed up a refreshing cocktail of gin and grapefruit soda that soon became a staple of Finnish culture. Fast forward 70 years to the next generation of Finns who wanted the world to experience the refreshing and unique drink of their homeland. Thanks to them, this iconic beverage is now available in America in a variety of flavors, bringing the refreshingly different taste of Finland's favorite drink right to you. The Finnish Long Drink bridges cultures and generations, and is best shared among friends old and new. Kippis! (that's 'cheers!' in Finnish)
