Anyone tried this yet?

Just bought a bottle.

You can definitely tell it's not as sweet as normal coke.

Not as horrid tasting as coke zero/diet coke (I'm a pepsi max person if I'm drinking 'diet' shit).

Definitely prefer regular coke because I'm a fat cunt but it's not too bad.

[Anonymous No.6402344]

Never tried it.

I like the taste of coke zero. I prefer it over normal coke actually.

Pepsi and pepsi products are pretty awful.

I prefer Pepsi max over and of coca colas sugar free products.
I don't see whats so bad about it

[Anonymous No.6403326]

My family buys it so I drink it when I go visit them. Not a fan, I much prefer regular coke, but with ice or in a mixer it's not so bad.

It's pretty palatable, doesn't have the disgusting aftertaste coke zero has, it's just a bit bland.

Since it has real sugar, it has the crisp, poppiness that Mexican Coke has. But since it also has Stevia, it follows that up with a sticky, chemically aftertaste that's not pleasant at all.

Coming to Liverpool from Leeds, I came across it for the first time. I thought it was the Irish variant of Coca Cola.

If i order a coke i expect either coke or pepsi. I can't remember anyone ever ordering a pepsi.

[Anonymous No.6403424]

>>6402340
Fuck it, only dr. Pepper or cherry Coke are drinkable

Yuop version tastes almost exactly like normal yurop coke. Difference becomes more noticable with gulps or after drinking it for a while.

It's not a significant improvement over yurop coke zero, so it depends on whether you want a little bit of sugar or not. yurop diet coke has always been terrible and only a step above diet pepsi

For me, using the localized versions available in Ireland;

Coke>Pepsi>Pepsi Max>Coke Life>Coke Zero>Diet Coke>Diet Pepsi

It's still cola and still bad no matter how healthy they try to market it as. Drink water.

[Anonymous No.6404247]

Tastes the same as regular to me. Only Coke worth buying is vanilla Coke.

Boardwalk in Bossier City?

I guarantee when we say "coke" all we mean is dark soda. If we want an actual Coke, we'll likely say "real Coke" or straight up ask for a Coca-Cola.

[Anonymous No.6404686]

Stevia tastes sweet, but it does not taste like sugar.
Just like how Honey tastes sweet, but the actual taste is different.
And like with syrup, and everything else.

The taste is also different between the 1.5l and 0.5 liter bottles. I have no idea why.
So here are the problems:
1. Its partially stevia, and some sugar. Hence:
2. Its barely modified Coca Cola taste, so if you wanted Coca Cola with sugar, it tastes different

Maybe the Stevia Cola tasted too different for them to attempt selling it. Its okay.

I've never even tried pepsi variants because plain pepsi itself is fucking disgusting. I avoid going to family member's houses that have pepsi instead of coke.

What I don't understand is why coke doesn't have real sugar variants like pepsi does though. The pepsi throwback shit sells well. Does coke hate money?

[Anonymous No.6404797]

>>6404694
You can't cross marked a "real sugar variant", because the only marked where Cola is without sugar is USA.
The second issue is that the original formula is based on what is now banned substances. So its different.

Remember: Pepsi RAW was very different from normal sugared Pepsi. It had a very uneven taste, which also made it a good gimmick.

[Anonymous No.6404805]

old man got some said it tasted like zero. just buy pepsi max

Coca Cola still buys de-cocainzed coca leaves for use in the soda. No telling if the cocaine removal process also removes the flavor.

[Anonymous No.6405354]

>>6405348
Its going to taste different, even if its subtle.

[Anonymous No.6405364]

>>6405348
Coca leaf isn't illegal, you can buy it off amazon. It is a lot nicer than caffeine, I used to drink it when I bartended.

[Anonymous No.6405368]

>>6405364
what can you do with them?

[Anonymous No.6405373]

>>6405368
Chew them or steep them.

[Anonymous No.6405394]

>>6405373
are the effects more like cocaine or caffeine?

[Anonymous No.6405404]

Regular coke tastes better, but this tastes better than diet

[Anonymous No.6405440]

>>6405394
Caffine. It takes quite a bit of work along with a whole shit load of coca leaves to make cocaine. Coca leaf has been used for thousands of years, cocaine only came about with the invention of modern chemistry

[Anonymous No.6405465]

its the coke lite recipe from japan.

[Anonymous No.6405589]

Why does the World of Coke have the best tasting coke? Seriously. I live in ATL and trying the coke at the 'drinks from around the world' is the best fucking coke I've ever drunken before. Literally nothing can compare to it. It has the crisp taste that the commercials describe.
