anyone in the states, add two tsp of sugar per glass of coke and you'll have the original recipe, pre-50s. people were bitching when they made it 'healthier' back then.

LOL it was an example, and i don't know Coca in the other countries, so i took the example of France because i live in France, simple isn't it? not too hard to understand ?

no, it's not hard to understand. in fact, it's all too simple. those are the standard flavours everywhere. Diet Coke wasn't made because the French are lean either. or Pepsi Max because they have a lot of diabetics. just so you know.


i think the main brands have standard flavours that are introduced to different countries at different times according to their culture. i.e., some countries are still stuck on the basic Fanta, Sprite and Coke trio. other countries have several variations of those + smaller brands made specifically for that country, such as Guarana in Brazil/Central America, Ginger Ale in the States/Canada, Green/Golden Apple shite in Mexico.
just some examples. i'm sure you can find a list online somewhere.

ok i agree what u said, i just thought of the lemon which were made for France cause i read that somewhere, and this is the 1st example which crossed my mind, but yea i m sure a lot of countries have their specific cola too. ["Glocalisation" : "act global, think local" lol my management lesson]

Originally posted by Laughingfennec ok my brotha went to NYC some time ago and told me the drinks and sodas there are damn sweet and sweetened, one day he felt very weak after haing walked all the day, he took a coloured drink and felt much better...another friend told me the same that you can find yellow, blue, green sodas, any colour you wanna, it is said to look like a wallpaper department LOL (i quote my frien)... so tell me how can you drink that lol? (no offence, just curious)

if he drank a colored drink and felt better he might have had an energy drink like powerade or gatorade. they have electrolytes added to them and they give you an energy boost and rehydrate you faster than water. but they have to much sugar for me.

coke in usa is made from sugar canes
coke in europe = from sugar potatoes
coke in europe > USA
