Molecola was born in Turin, Italy in 2012 from the idea to create a Cola completely Italian.Using a recipe inspired by a famous book of Piedmontese recipes written in 1854 and in collaboration with a historical Aromatherié from Florence, we have developed a beverage we believe is exceptional: delicious, refreshing… and 100 % Italian.Our cola was named after the Mole Antonelliana, a famous and much loved building in Turin.The building’ s shape also inspired the design on the cans.

Aranciata di Sicilia - Sicily Blood Orange Soda - 11.15oz
$3.99
The Blood Orange is a variety of orange with crimson, almost-blood-colored flesh. The fruit is roughly the same size as an average orange, but sometimes can be smaller or larger; its skin is usually pitted, but can be smooth. The distinctive dark flesh color is due to the presence of anthocyanin, a family of antioxidant pigments common to many flowers and fruit, but uncommon in citrus fruits. Blood oranges have a unique flavor profile compared to other oranges, being distinctly raspberry-like in addition to the usual citrus notes. The arancia rossa di Sicilia (red orange of Sicily) has protected geographical status.
