====Clicquot Club====

[[Clicquot Club Company|Cliquot Club]] was started by Henry Millis, using funds from his father and founder of Millis, Lansing Millis. The company, which distributed the first brand of [[ginger ale]] in the United States for about eighty years, was located on Main Street and is the namesake for the village of Clicquot in Millis. The ginger ale produced by Clicquot Club was made using local Millis ginger. Later, the company produced several different sodas and was the first company in the nation to can drinks. Clicquot Club owned more than 100 factories throughout the United States and sold its beverages internationally. As sales declined in the 1960s, however, the company went bankrupt and was bought by the [[Cott]] company, which in turn was acquired by [[Canada Dry]].
