Bing

Bing is a soft drink produced by the  Silver Spring Mineral Water Company Limited, based in  Folkestone,  Kent,  UK. It is dark orange in colour and has a  cherryade quality to it. The flavour has been compared by some [who?]  to original  Tizer (before they removed the artificial flavourings). The name 'Bing' comes from the original producer of the drink, one Edwin Bing of Canterbury, who ran a chemist and mineral water business in  Canterbury. His company 'Bing's Mineral Waters ltd' was bought by Silver Spring in 1968. The distribution of Bing is very limited, as it is principally available in the County of Kent but is also available in London and Essex.
