Kinnie was developed in 1952 by Simonds Farsons Cisk on the island of Malta. This non-alcoholic, bitter-tasting drink is made from bitter oranges and aromatic herbs, and is caramel in colour. The citrus flavour is similar to other chinotto flavoured drinks common in Italy. Since 1984, a diet version (Diet Kinnie) has been available. In 1975, Kinnie was selected beverage of the year by the French organization Comité International d'Action Gastronomique et Touristique.
