Carbonated Non-Alcoholic Beverage

Niğde Gazozu is a carbonated, non-alcoholic lemon-flavored beverage that began production in the city of Niğde, located in Türkiye’s Central Anatolia Region, during the 1960s. Production initially started on a local scale and gradually evolved into a more systematic structure, gaining recognition across the region. Within the broader Turkish tradition of soda production that became widespread from the mid-20th century onward, Niğde Gazozu has established its own identity through its unique production process and flavor profile. Today, the production of this beverage is still carried out by a company based in Niğde.

Ingredients and Production Process

Niğde Gazozu is produced using water sugar lemon flavoring and carbon dioxide gas. The bottling filling and labeling processes are conducted on a production line equipped with technological infrastructure. The product is marketed in compliance with the food production and inspection standards set by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry.
