Mello Yello is a caffeinated, citrus-flavored soft drink produced and distributed by the Coca-Cola Company. It was introduced in the latter part of 1979 to compete with PepsiCo's Mountain Dew. There have been three flavored variants of Mello Yello. Mello Yello Cherry was released in response to Mountain Dew Code Red. The other two variants were peach-flavored Mello Yello Afterglow, and Mello Yello Melon. All three were only available for a limited time.
In the United States, Mello Yello is only sold in certain areas, primarily in the Midwest, Southeast and South Florida, where it remains quite popular. Recently it has been reintroduced to northern states and has had good reactions from consumers. The product allows Coca-Cola to have a presence in the citrus soft drink market segment along with Vault, another citrus soft drink that is more widely sold by Coca-Cola. A low calorie version, called Diet Mello Yello, also exists in select markets.
