Question: What type of brand are Schweppes and Frescolita?
Context: Mace is the genericized trademark of Chemical Mace, the brand name of an early type of aerosol self defense spray invented by Allan Lee Litman in 1965.  The first commercial product of its type, Litman's design packaged phenacyl chloride (CN) tear gas dissolved in hydrocarbon solvents into a small aerosol spray can, usable in almost any environment and strong enough (when sprayed in the face) to act as a credible deterrent and incapacitant.  Its popularity led to the brand name being shortened to simply "Mace" for all defense sprays (regardless of the composition). A&W Cream Soda is a cream soda carbonated soft drink introduced by A&W Root Beer in 1986.  A&W Root Beer was first sold at a Veterans Day parade in Lodi, California in 1919 and the company established in 1922 by Frank Wright and Roy Allen.  The first product they created was A & W Root Beer.  It was not until 1986 that A&W Brands, headquartered in White Plains, N.Y. introduced A&W Cream Soda and A&W Diet Cream Soda through its network of franchised bottlers and distributors.  Although cream soda had been created in 1852 by E.M. Sheldon, A&W Brands was one of the first American companies to make it commercially.  In 1993, A&W Brands was purchased by Cadbury/Schweppes, and in 1995 Cadbury/Schweppes purchased the Dr. Pepper/Seven-Up Company, which made A&W a part of the Dr. Pepper/Seven Up, Inc.  In 2001, DPSU purchased the Snapple Beverage Group (formally TriArc Beverages), and moved the New York-based company operations to its new headquarters in Plano, Texas.  This acquisition put A&W within the same company as the top soda brand companies and made A&W Cream Soda the top brand in cream sodas. Stewart's Fountain Classics are a brand of premium soft drinks made in the United States.  Stewart's are nostalgic "old fashioned" fountain sodas, having originated at the Stewart's Restaurants, a chain of root beer stands started in 1924 by Frank Stewart in Mansfield, Ohio.  In 1990, the bottling rights to Stewart's were acquired by the Cable Car Beverage Corporation.  Cream Soda and Ginger Beer flavors were introduced in 1992.  Other flavors have been added since then.  Cable Car Beverage Corporation, in November 1997, was purchased by Triarc.  Cadbury Schweppes PLC acquired the Stewart's brands in 2000 along with Snapple and Mistic Brands for $1.45 billion. Frescolita is a Venezuelan cola.  It is very similar to cream sodas found in the United States, with a taste similar to gum.  Frescolita is also used to bake cakes in some places in Western Venezuela.  It is marketed by Coca-Cola.  Frescolita was made in 1983 and since then it has received many lawsuits from various companies (including Postobon) accusing Frescolita of copying their flavoring. Cool Ridge Water is a brand of Spring water.  It is a division of Schweppes Australia. Schweppes Cola is a brand of cola produced by Schweppes.  It was, at first, available mainly in Australia, but it was eventually made available around the world.  The taste is similar to the now-defunct Count Cola.  The product was widely available in supermarkets & small take-away food outlets.  In Australia, the product was discontinued when Schweppes obtained a license to produce Pepsi products in Australia.  Schweppes Cola is currently owned and distributed by Dr Pepper Snapple Group.  Today the product can be found in Sweden, Canada and other countries. Umbrella branding (also known as family branding) is a marketing practice involving the use of a single brand name for the sale of two or more related products.  Umbrella branding is mainly used by companies with a positive brand equity (value of a brand in a certain marketplace).  All products use the same means of identification and lack additional brand names or symbols.  This marketing practice differs from brand extension in that umbrella branding involves the marketing of similar products, rather than differentiated products, under one brand name.  Hence, umbrella branding may be considered as a type of brand extension.  The practice of umbrella branding does not disallow a firm to implement different branding approaches for different product lines (e.g. brand extension). Cottee's is an Australian brand of cordial drinks, owned by Schweppes Australia. Schweppes ( ) is a beverage brand that is sold around the world.

While dnL remained listed as an official product of the company in late 2005, it was scheduled to be discontinued for 2006 in favor of the 7 Up Plus brand.
