The Canadian arm kept going for decades after, using the \"Nu\" spelling (instead of \"New\") specifically to head off any suggestion the drink contained dairy. The bottles themselves were made under contract by the British Syphon Company of London — a maker whose siphon hardware turned up behind bars across the Commonwealth. This piece is one of the few surviving traces of a homegrown Toronto soft drink brand that's otherwise faded from memory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStyle Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA piece like this earns its keep on a home bar cart or open shelving in a Toronto or Ontario kitchen doing the vintage-eclectic thing — it reads as much like local history as it does barware.
