Pitt Cola is a peach-flavored soda, and the most popular soft drink in Gravity Falls. It is mostly the characters' favorite beverage. Stan and Dipper Pines frequently drink it, the empty cans are visible lying around the Mystery Shack, and they are featured in every vending machine in Gravity Falls. One of its slogans is: 'It's the pitts!'
Distribution[]
Pitt Cola appears to be sold in cans through vending machines, like the ones next to the entrance of the Mystery Shack or Ye Royal Discount Putt Hutt, in two-liter plastic bottles and one-liter glass bottles. It is also available in a diet version.

Early History[]
Pitt Cola has been on shelves since Stanley and Stanford were young. It is seen in a flashback in "A Tale of Two Stans," and it was seen advertised in a newspaper from 1901 in The Book of Bill.

A bottle of Pitt Cola can be seen in the theme song, next to Soos, while the main cast is sitting around the campfire listening to Grunkle Stan tell a scary ghost story.
An advertisement for it appears on the back cover of the magazine Wendy reads in "Tourist Trapped." In that same episode. Stan is seen holding a can of it as he brings in signs to hang up.
Dipper is drinking a can of it right before Mabel asks for his opinion on her wax sculpture idea in "Headhunters." Bats Biker seen later in the episode is also drinking a can of it.
It is more prominently seen being used as a soda fountain/volcano in "The Inconveniencing" in a bottled form.

Appearance[]
Pitt Cola packaging is pink with a large salmon/pink stripe and the word Pitt on it, in a style that resembles Coca-Cola's logo. Some packaging has what appears to be a smiling peach on it since Pitt Cola is peach flavored. There have also been scenes with orange and purple Pitt Cola, likely orange and grape flavored.
