百事可乐(Pepsi-Cola)最初于18世纪90年代由美国北卡罗莱纳州一位名为 Caleb Bradham 的药剂师所造,以碳酸水、糖、香草、生油、胃蛋白酶(pepsin)及可乐果制成。该药物最初是用于治理胃部疾病,后来被命名为“Pepsi”,并于1903年6月16日将之注册为商标。 后来逐渐发展为美国百事公司推出的一种碳酸饮料,也是美国可口可乐公司的主要竞争对手。
2016年6月8日,《2016年BrandZ全球最具价值品牌百强榜》公布,百事可乐排第86名。
 

PepsiCo is one of the world’s largest producers of soft drinks. Its most famous brand is Pepsi but its products also include Mountain Dew, Aquafina, 7up, Gatorade and Tropicana, among many other household names. Pepsi was first made in the 1890s by a pharmacist called Caleb Bradham. He wanted to create a tasty drink that boosted energy and helped with digestion 1. Since its creation, it has been involved in perhaps the world’s greatest business rivalry 2, with Coca Cola, which unsuccessfully tried to buy Pepsi three times in the 1930s. The company has over 200,000 employees worldwide and generates $50 billion of revenue a year. PepsiCo’s website says: “Our mission is to be the world's premier 3 consumer products company focused on convenient foods and beverages 4.”
