For generations, the Kisko brand has held a beloved position with its refreshing ice popsicles, evoking nostalgia for those who fondly remember enjoying these delicious frozen treats during their childhood.

Building on its legacy of bringing joy with every sip, Kisko through its partnership with Jamaican manufacturing and distribution company Chas E. Ramson Limited is launching its own drink mix.

Kisko Drink Mix, which comes in three flavours—mango, ginger lemonade and ginger pineapple—is not only delicious but also affordable and convenient, offering a quick way to enjoy a refreshing beverage by simply adding water. 

Phillip Ramson, the managing director for Chas E. Ramson Limited, spoke about the inspiration behind the partnership between his company and Kisko, to create the drink mix.

“Having worked closely together as Kisko’s distributor, Chas E. Ramson Limited recognised a unique opportunity to deepen this collaboration by combining Kisko’s iconic brand presence with our powerful distribution network. Partnering with Kisko in this new capacity felt like a natural step, our relationship is built on mutual trust and a shared dedication to quality. Together, we’re not just expanding distribution but creating an opportunity to bring more Kisko products into the lives of our customers,” he explained.

He added, “This collaboration underscores both companies’ dedication to delivering high-quality, trusted products to consumers. It also reinforces Chas. E. Ramson Limited role as a leader in distribution, utilising our network to expand the reach of Kisko’s beloved products in stores nationwide.  For generations, Chas E. Ramson Limited has provided consumers with premium products across a range of categories, making everyday moments more enjoyable. With a focus on quality and trust, we remain dedicated to delivering value to our customers and retail partners.”

Kisko has been delighting families for nearly a century with a diverse selection of frozen treats. Known for its fun, flavourful, and quality products, Kisko has established itself as a household favourite across generations.

Ramson shared what went into the decision to offer Kisko Drink Mix in its new flavours and how the flavours were selected.

“When selecting flavours, it was essential to choose those that truly resonate with Jamaica and the Jamaican palate. When you think of Jamaican fruits, vibrant mango and juicy pineapple instantly come to mind, capturing the essence of the island. And, of course, every Jamaican knows that ginger is the perfect complement—it’s a flavour that goes with everything here in Jamaica,” said Ramson.

The Kisko Drink Mix product is manufactured locally by Salada Foods.

“Kisko Drink Mix is authentically made in Jamaica, and that was the inspiration behind our drink mixes and why we chose to partner with Salada Foods to do the manufacturing of our drink mixes.  Kisko, Ramsons, and Salada are each iconic Jamaican brands, and this collaboration brings together our shared commitment to quality and growth. Together, we aim to strengthen local manufacturing and pave the way for increased exports, showcasing the best of Jamaica to the world,”  Ramson disclosed.
