Sidney W. Lee was the owner of Alabama Grocery Company, and invented Buffalo Rock Ginger Ale in 1901.

Buffalo Rock

Buffalo Rock Ginger Ale was originally created by Lee as a non-carbonated tonic for stomach ailments. Lee worked with Selma chemist Ashby Coleman to create a carbonated soft drink from the tonic which he sold through his Alabama Grocery Company. The name was first used in commerce in 1906, and a trade mark was applied for in 1917. By 1927, Lee dropped all of his wholesale products to focus on making and bottling Buffalo Rock Ginger Ale.
