Mello Yello is a high-taste citrus flavored drink produced and distributed by The Coca-Cola Company which was introduced on 1 March 1979 to compete with Mountain Dew PepsiCo.

Mello Yello was pulled from Australia in the early 1990s, replaced by the same lift but not caffeinated.

There are three variants of Mello Yello flavor in North America. Mello Yello Cherry was released in response to Mountain Dew Code Red. Two other variants are Mello Yello Afterglow (peach-flavored) and Mello Yello Melon. All three are only available for a limited time. Mello Yello Cherry is available at Coca-Cola Freestyle machines, and is still available in limited markets.

In early 2010, Coca-Cola announced a new image of a new packaging that would be a re-brand Mello Yello to resemble packaging in 1979. This re-branding has included an expanded product distribution, to areas such as the United States that do not yet have in-product several years such as Northeastern United States and Western United States. In 2011, Mello Yello began to replace Vault on the Coca-Cola Freestyle machine.

Mello Yello was seen as a sponsor on die-cast toys and collectible cars for both Days of Thunder # 51 Chevrolet Lumina and Kyle Petty's # 42 Grand Prix Pontiac.

International relaunch

In October 2006, Mello Yello was relaunched in New Zealand as a 'limited edition' product after a long hiatus, at least 15 years, from the local market. The re-launched version of New Zealand contains the original 1980s logo, and as it was available in the 1980s there were even words of Coca-Cola Company's Product on bottles. This 'limited edition' release is only available in 600 ml and 1.5 liter plastic bottles and contains the words Limited Edition . Only 200,000 cases of promo products were produced in 2006 according to Coca Cola. Mello Yello was once again relaunched to the New Zealand market in October 2007 and available until the end of 2007. It has now been relaunched in New Zealand again as a 'limited edition' for the summer.

At the end of June 2011, Mello Yello was relaunched in Japan. Packaging in Japan carries the slogan 'Smooth Taste Smooth Times' and 'Since 1983' badge beside cans and bottles. In Australia, the Mello Yello brand has returned during the summer of 2012-2013, with the 1980s logo being used. In a small type, the packaging says, "Mello Yello is served by Lift"; However, the contents are not lifts. Lifts are also available in themed packs of the 1990s. Mello Yello is not caffeinated. It should be noted that Mountain Dew in Australia has not been caffeinated until about six months before this release. This release therefore returns something similar to the "old" Mountain Dew feel to the Australian market.

In 1994 it was launched in Colombia by Coca-Cola Company under the name Quatro
