  • Current German recipe without juice, per Coca-Cola Deutschland supported · Compare evidence

    Coca-Cola Deutschland's Sprite page gives this list and a per 100 ml panel for Sprite in Germany, not for this bottle alone; German Wikipedia dates the change to early 2023 and quotes the same list as of 2026 (^wiki-de), and the Globus listing of this GTIN carries the same panel (^globus). No photograph of the ingredient side of this generation has been uploaded

About this product

Sprite, The Coca-Cola Company's lemon-lime soft drink, in the one-litre refillable PET bottle sold in Germany with a EUR 0.15 deposit.[1] German drinks retailers list this barcode singly and in crates of twelve, one of them since February 2015.[1][2] The labels are German only and name the Berlin Coca-Cola bottler as operator, selling the drink with The Coca-Cola Company's permission.[3] The recipe has changed twice on this bottle: the 2015 label declares no juice and 37 kcal per 100 ml, the 2020 label adds 1% lemon juice and 0.1% lime juice at 33 kcal, and since early 2023 the German recipe drops the juice and adds tartaric acid, at 33 kcal and 7.9 g of sugars.[3][4][5] The old Barcodepedia page already described a 1 l PET bottle of Sprite in 2007.[6]

More about this product

The lemon-lime drink was developed in West Germany in 1959 as Fanta Klare Zitrone and launched in the United States as Sprite in 1961; The Coca-Cola Company had bought the Sprite name in 1960.[7] In Germany the flavour took the Sprite name in 1968.[4]

Coverage & research gaps (14)

Coverage measures the evidence recorded here. It does not rate the product.

  • Identity: 3 / 3 · Name, brand and classification recorded
  • Context: 4 / 5 · Evidence groups assigned to a researched label, edition or analysis
  • Label photographs: 0 / 4 · Researched contexts with an assigned photograph
  • Current German recipe without juice, per Coca-Cola Deutschland: nutrient evidence: 8 / 8 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
  • German label with lemon and lime juice: nutrient evidence: 16 / 16 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
  • 2015 blue-green label for Coca-Cola Erfrischungsgetränke AG: nutrient evidence: 16 / 16 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
  • ingredients · unknown: The juice-free recipe is taken from the maker's page for Sprite in Germany and German Wikipedia; no photograph of this bottle's ingredient side after 2023 exists on Open Food Facts, and the maker's pack list does not name a 1 l PET Mehrweg bottle for Sprite (it does for Sprite Zero Sugar) although retailers list this one in 2026
  • images · disputed: Upload 12 on the Open Food Facts record, the largest photo, shows a US 12 fl oz Sprite can reading LEMON-LIME SODA, 100% NATURAL FLAVORS, NO CAFFEINE: a different article filed under this barcode, not used here
  • markets · unknown: Open Food Facts tags China and France as well as Germany, but every photographed label is German only and no listing outside Germany was found for this barcode
  • identity · not_applicable: The Open Food Facts sibling 5449000104700, also Sprite 1 l, is a Polish-labelled single-use dimpled PET bottle (CYTRYNOWO-LIMONKOWY SMAK), a different article
  • packaging · not_applicable: ee 60106332 beside the barcode is a label artwork number and 01/16 LDY51910931 a best-before and batch print, not an oval identification mark, so no country of origin is claimed
  • relationships · stale: The retailer data sheet names Coca-Cola Erfrischungsgetränke AG at Stralauer Allee 4 as manufacturer, a former name; the newest photographed operator block (2021) reads Coca-Cola European Partners DE, also a former name of Coca-Cola Europacific Partners Deutschland GmbH
