Color Coded

Q:


Take the phrase RED GOAT.  Add a vowel and rearrange the letters to name a popular beverage brand.

Now, take the phrase AQUA STORK.  Add a vowel and rearrange the letters to name the company that owned the brand for almost twenty years.



A:

The image shows blue and orange, the colors of the University of Florida.  The beverage was developed there in 1965 and shortly after the 1967 Orange Bowl, the production rights were sold to Stokely-Van Camp.  After 18 years, another company purchased the brand and subsequently sold it to Pepsico in 2001. 

Add an A to red goat and an E to aqua stork.
