Flavourings – Coke and Lime

As most people are already aware, Coke have been messing about with “Coke + flavouring” over the last couple of years. First came Vanilla, which is putrid (except with Vodka in it, but that’s perhaps missing the point slightly), then came Lemon, which most people associated with drinking Windolene.

With a lot less fanfare though comes Diet Coke with Lime. Sounds vile? (And yes, I know Pepsi are doing a Twisted Pepsi Max with Lemon and Lime.) Well, I wanted to try it, because on occasion I used to be known to put a dollop of lime cordial into normal coke, and it tasted pretty good. I’ve no idea where I got the idea from, but well, it tasted OK.

So, Diet Coke with Lime. Could be interesting. And I have to say, it’s really not bad. It might be on a limited-area trial at the moment, as the Coca-cola UK site doesn’t even mention it yet, but I’d say it’s definitely worth looking out for.

    Meh, I liked Vanilla Coke. Mind you, I’m currently in the grip of a moderately severe Dr Pepper addiction, as the 80-strong wall of cans on the end of my desk bears testament to.

  2. Gordon says:

    I like Vanilla Coke too, and I can sympathise Chris. Once you “get the Pepper” it’s very hard to come off. Nothing will taste the same ever again.

    *shudders* @ both Vanilla Coke and Dr Pepper.

    Maybe Pepper is a taste I’ve just not grown into yet. I’m not holding my breath to do so.
