I’ll begin by saying that I’ve never really liked Diet Coke. While I truly like original-formula real Coca-Cola, I suppose I’m so biased against Diet Coke because to me, it isn’t really Coke at all.

Coca-Cola Zero Zero Calorie Cola I’ve seen around for the past few years, and as I drink a chilled 20-ounce plastic bottle of this soft drink while writing this, I’m taken with how sweet it is, just as I was when I tried Pepsi Max the other day.

Coca-Cola Cherry Cola, Cherry Coke Soft Drink Review
Like PepsiCo, Coca-Cola also offers a cherry version of their classic cola soft drink product, called Coca-Cola Cherry Cola. Note that I call this cherry cola, because this is still a cola, and not simply a red cherry pop. Coke Cherry Cola tastes like they added a hint of cherry flavoring to the original formula, as the… Continue reading Coca-Cola Cherry Cola, Cherry Coke Soft Drink Review
