But I have no idea who gives it to me.

My roommate has been wondering this for a few hours: Who makes Orange Crush? A lot of web searching had me thinking Cadbury Schweppes, but their Web site has no evidence of it. Perhaps it was sold off to another company?

Cadbury Schweppes Plc owns the rights to Crush in North America, Europe, and Australia. They sold the right to market the beverage in the rest of the world to Coca-Cola. See [http://www.ibj.com/daily/IBJDstories/05D0918.html](http://www.ibj.com/daily/IBJDstories/05D0918.html)
