Yumbo Soda Co is a Yarra Valley based independent soft drink company brewing boutique soft drinks for those wanting a boutique soft drink.

Growing up in the Yarra Valley, founder Ben Frazer knew a thing or two about the beverage industry – his brother a wine maker, his mates behind the wheel of Four Pillars, it was an industry he’d always been a part of, albeit dancing on the sidelines of the game. When Covid hit, Ben pivoted from his marketing role and got to work on a project he’d never had the time to tackle – Yumbo Soda Co. With access to a brewery in Coldstream and Walter, Ben’s 78-year-old lemon farmer/good mate living next door, he got to work creating a lemonade that honoured the taste of the traditional flavour of one of the world’s most popular soft drinks.

Since then Yumbo has expanded to now include Mandarin, Blood Orange, Grapefruit and a Lemon Iced Tea - still (and always!) relying on Australian growers and produces to bring the best quality ingredients to Yumbo HQ!
