Lima Peru Shorts
Description: Commonly referred to as "the Golden Kola," Inca Kola is a soft drink that was created in Peru in 1935 by British immigrant Joseph Robinson Lindley. The soda has a sweet, fruity flavor that somewhat resembles its main ingredient, lemon verbena, though Americans compare its flavor to that of bubblegum or cream soda. The golden soda is a source of national pride and patriotism in Peru, and while it has not enjoyed major success outside Peru, it can be found in Latin specialty shops worldwide in both bottles and cans.
Description: A vertically striped flag with red at the edges and white in the center. The central white band features the national emblem of Peru, a coat of arms with a vicuña, a cinchona tree, and a cornucopia. The emblem is surrounded by a laurel wreath. The text "PERU" is at the top and "LIMA" is at the bottom, both in bold white letters on black backgrounds with a distressed effect.
