Nothing like ice cold Coca-Cola.
Do you want one?

The syrup. The sugar!

That's exactly the point "They call it THE SECRET FORMULA" and to make and distribute it around the world they received the syrup from Atlanta Georgia.
High-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is a nutritive (calorie-containing) sweetener derived from corn. It’s found in many carbonated soft drinks, juice drinks and sports drinks, as well as other snacks, syrups, jellies and other sweetened products.
Caffeine is an integral part of the complex flavor and overall profile of some soft drinks, which consumers enjoy for refreshment, taste and hydration. For over 100 years in some cases, the formulas for these drinks have carefully balanced a mix of ingredients, including sweeteners, carbonation, caffeine, and other flavorings to produce the refreshing taste and exhilarating quality that consumers prefer, especially when served cold or with ice. The bitter taste of caffeine is part of the complex flavor profile of these drinks.

Used to be....coke! that was years ago, though. Obviously, I would think it's the caffeine. You pick a drink that you like the flavor of, and the caffeine gives you the illusion that you love that drink, because of the good feeling the "drug" (caffeine) gave you.
Personally? I hate soda of any kind. Nothing I can tolerate less than a million bubbles bursting all over my tongue. No thank you!

It is a perfect drink - ice cold in a glass bottle is the only way. Besides, it saved my life when I had food poisoning - I am forever indebted.

I'm addicted to Coca-Cola. It's the caffine. It tastes fine, but I'm just a caffine addict in general. And yes, I'd like one. Trade you Jell-O for it!
*Hands you Jell-O*
Now give me Coca-Cola!....Please.

I used to love them, but that caffeine and 39 grams of sugars per can was a killer
But what makes them SO good is that fact they come from Atlanta just like me

I'd rather have a Diet Pepsi. It's a bit too sweet for me. I know lots of people like Coke, though.

It is the perfect mix of carbination and syrup.
Best served over small ice cubes and sipped with a straw!

I like coke because it tastes the same even after it's sat for a half hour. Pepsi gets nasty way too quick...
