I have to say that I have been a Coca-Cola drinker for years, back so far as to remember the ''original'' original formula that was there before New Coke was invented. If you remember New Coke as I do, let us just rejoice together that it died a quick death!
Coca-Cola is hands down the best drink out there. It does not leave an after taste in your mouth like Pepsi does. I do know that either you are a Coke or Pepsi person and nothing I could say would persuade you to drink Coke, just like nothing you could say would persuade me that Pepsi was the best.
That said, I'll let you know what I like about Coca-Cola. It just has a smooth taste with just a little ''kick'' of carbonation to it that makes it a joy to drink. One of my earliest memories is drinking Coke out of a glass bottle (remember those too?) with peanut butter crackers with my grandmother. If you've never tried that, I would highly recommend it, they go great together.
If Coca-Cola is too carbonated for you straight out of the bottle or can, I like to drink mine over ice. The interesting thing is, you can drink Coca-Cola in a bottle, can, or a 2-liter/3-liter bottle, and each way makes it taste just a little bit different.
Coca-Cola is also a well rounded drink and has many uses. I have a cookbook full of ways to use Coca-Cola, for example did you know that you can take a can of Coke, add ketchup and you have a great tasting barbecue sauce? It's true and it's good!
Give Coca-Cola a try, it's cool, refreshing, and tasty! It IS the real thing!
