About us

As ordinary kiwi guys we got sick of big US corporations coming to NZ and shovelling their cheesy pop down our throats – so we thought we not take on these big boys? We made illicit cola – it tastes similar to the big global giant but that’s where the similarities end. illicit cola is proudly 100% NZ made and owned, and we think it tastes pretty good. Plus we threw in an exotic ingredient from South America called yerba mate to keep things interesting.

Life wouldn’t be much fun without a bit of entertainment and mischief. Don’t grow old and boring – live life on the edge. Take a dirty big gulp of illicit and get amongst it!

So thanks for trying something new and supporting the underdog.

 Cheers

Andy & Steve
