Coca-Cola, 35 X 12 fl oz

This carbonated soft drink is made with carbonated water as the base, providing its signature effervescence. Sweetness comes from high fructose corn syrup, which gives Coca-Cola its familiar balanced sweetness. Caramel color is added for the beverage’s iconic dark appearance, while phosphoric acid delivers a crisp, slightly tangy bite. The flavor profile is completed with natural flavors, which make up Coca-Cola’s distinctive cola taste, and caffeine, which provides its characteristic stimulating effect.

This product contains caffeine and is formulated as a traditional, full-sugar cola beverage commonly enjoyed on its own or with meals.
