Irn-Bru is known for its bright orange colour and unique flavour. [5] As of 1999, it contained 0.002% of ammonium ferric citrate, sugar, 32 flavouring agents including caffeine and quinine (but not in Australia), and two controversial colourings ( Sunset Yellow FCF E110 and Ponceau 4R E124). On 27 January 2010, soft-drink manufacturer A.G. Barr agreed to a Food Standards Agency voluntary ban on these two colourings although no date was set for their replacement. [6] After lobbying by First Minister of Scotland Alex Salmond, a proposed restriction of Sunset Yellow to 10mg/litre was eased to 20mg/litre in 2011 – the same amount present in Irn-Bru. [7] As of August 2021, Irn-Bru still contains these colourings.
