Honestly im in favor of the coke.

The US version would have fentanyl. Gotta get the Mexican kind if you want real cocaine.

I want Coke to do a mango flavor. Pepsi do a mango flavor Pepsi Max and it's delicious. The problem is that over the past year or so, Pepsi changed something in the recipe and now whenever I drink it, I get migraines and dizzy spells. Coke doesn't, but they only have the lemon flavor near me and that's not as nice as the mango Pepsi.

Coke has a flavor called Twisted Mango. I haven't tried it nor seen it bottled anywhere, but I bet those touchscreen dispenser machines at some restaurants would have it.

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

There's an Orange Cream flavor now that I actually like a lot.

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 hour ago

It's the only thing I get from them now. I always made that as a flavor in the freestyle machines.

[–] Stamets@lemmy.world 3 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

They have one. At least, I've had one. Called Twisted Mango from what I remember.

[–] RedFrank24@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

I don't know if they sell that in the UK. Every flavored coke and pepsi I've seen here has been "With Lemon" or "With Peach" or "With Mango". They didn't give it a specific name. The same with the Coke Peach you get in Japan which is delicious and I'm upset I can't find it being sold here.

[–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 1 points 7 hours ago

You can't even find the same flavors in the same country, it's all about markets and bottlers.

[–] Melatonin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 7 hours ago

I'm all about the flavors.

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 6 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

I like the flavors, fuck off!

COVID was rough because they stopped making all the quirky stuff. Slowly nature healed and now things like Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper Zero are back.

[–] epicstove@lemmy.ca 23 points 23 hours ago (3 children)

I haven't tried vanilla but I've heard it's good.

Cherry is the fucking GOAT

Had a raspberry cane sugar one at Niagara falls that was pretty good.

Still am looking to try the Quebec maple syrup coke someday.

[–] ouRKaoS 16 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

They have Cherry Vanilla Coke now, and it is glorious.

[–] Living_Dead@lemmy.world 5 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

The Orange creamsicle flavor they released in spring was my favourite so far.

[–] ZoopZeZoop@lemmy.world 4 points 19 hours ago (3 children)

I haven't, but I don't care for orange creamsicle popsicles anymore (used to love them). I'm assuming you won't like it if you don't care for orange creamsicle popsicles. Is that accurate?

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 hour ago

I’m assuming you won’t like it if you don’t care for orange creamsicle popsicles.

It is exactly orange creamscicle popsicles, and so strong that you can drink the whole bottle, refill it with regular Coke, and it will still taste strongly of creamsicle.

[–] Living_Dead@lemmy.world 3 points 16 hours ago

I would say that's accurate. I found it added a little of that creamy flavor and a little orange zest. Not what I wanted for every drink but unique enough it was interesting.

[–] ouRKaoS 3 points 18 hours ago

I love orange creamsicles, but didn't like the Coke... I think it was the cream flavor that was weird; I get lemon or lime flavor from the freestyle machines pretty often, so the citrus flavor is good.

[–] Machinist@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago

LPT. If you ever get the chance to go to a Waffle House: order a Cherry Coke and ask for a double shot of cherry.

It turns into CHERRY coke and is even better.

[–] dogs0n@sh.itjust.works 3 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

I used to like cherry, but you just cant down 12 cans of cherry coke the way you can the OG.

[–] epicstove@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 minute ago

I prefer to live past 60 lol.

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 5 points 18 hours ago

Can I buy a gram of cocaine and pour it into soda?

[–] Talaraine@fedia.io 24 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I'll die on the Cherry Coke Hill.

[–] alquicksilver@lemmy.world 3 points 23 hours ago

A few years back, they changed it to "feisty cherry" for a bit. That was, hands down, the worst soda I've ever tasted in my life. Why they did it, I don't know, but it was really hard to find the normal cherry for a while.

[–] chrislowles@lemm.ee 2 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago)

Cola Life was so good, tasted like regular coke but with stevia so the crash wasn't as bad.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 6 points 19 hours ago

The last new flavor I tried was the orange cream one and that was the best flavor of Coke I've ever had, ever. I want it to be a regular thing.

[–] NakariLexfortaine@lemm.ee 15 points 1 day ago (2 children)

The Orange Cream Coke is pretty good.

But if it comes down to that or Cherry-Vanilla, the orange gets the noose. I'm a slut for cherry-vanilla.

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 hour ago

They ran cherry diet in my area for a while, it was so f'ing good. then they stopped. I went on vacation to Florida and it was everywhere. region locking sucks :)

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 2 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

The Orange Cream Coke is pretty good.

Really? I've been too wary to try it. I love orange creamcicles and I love Coke. But that just sounds like a super weird combo.

[–] limelight79@lemm.ee 3 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

I tried it and didn't like it, but obviously that's just a personal opinion - several other people in this thread have said it's good. I like Coke and I like orange cream soda, but the two together just didn't work for me.

I'm team Vanilla Coke. I hated that during the pandemic I usually couldn't get it; and even now, the grocery store might only have one or two 12-packs in stock when we need it. But cherry (and cherry vanilla) is also pretty good, and I like to mix it up sometimes.

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 hours ago

Lol I'm in the same boat. I dona lot of grocery store curbside pickup, so I don't know what their stock levels are when I place my order. I always specify Vanilla Coke, and whenever it's not filled I'm a little sad.

[–] LMurch@thelemmy.club 12 points 1 day ago (2 children)

It was kinda gross and reminded me of a cleaning fluid, but I haven't had Lime Coke for a while. I could go for one of those right now (and might instantly regret it, but, nostalgia...).

[–] theUwUhugger@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I remember the first time I had the vanilla flavor

It was early june in high school when I saw a patch of white lilies that started opening. Those used to be my grandmas favorite, she passed that year… So with semi-teary eyes I checked my wallet and I remember just having enough pocket money for a can of coke (my folks were very strict about soda, but gran had a coke addiction)! So I went to the corner store, I must have been very wistful as I didn’t notice that the coke was flavored. Aaand I threw that shit out, it was fucking disgusting!

[–] flicker@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

If you read this comment in the style of, "this is an ad for Coke trying to yank at your heartstrings," the ending is both hilarious and really satisfying. So thanks for that!

I don't know why but I imagined you throwing it away while saying, "Gran wouldn't stand for this!"

[–] theUwUhugger@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

Its an actually real story! You might feel that way cause I rllllllllllllly do love coke! But it became so so so fucking expensive since covid…

[–] FlexibleToast@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Coke with lime was my favorite... That's still my go-to at the Freestyle machines.

[–] kryptonianCodeMonkey@lemmy.world 2 points 18 hours ago

Vanilla cocaine?

[–] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

If the company could stop making new Coke flavours then killing off popular ones more often than Netflix series or Google chat apps, it would be appreciated.

[–] flicker@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 4 hours ago

I fuckin loved spiced coke. I had a flat of the mini cans I got from Sam's Club (don't judge me, we don't have a Costco or a Trader Joes where I live) and every day after I got home from the gym I'd have a can of spiced coke and it was the fuckin best.

But now it's gone and I'm quite upset about it. The orange cream is fine but it's not the spiced. AGH! They made a coke with all my favorite flavors and then ditched it!

[–] capuccino@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

In my country I do know if someone is a chudjak if base their entire personality on liking Dr. Pepper.

[–] chemicalprophet@slrpnk.net 2 points 22 hours ago

I’ll wait until then and then one more where they remove the cola. I want a coke machine that dispenses grams from all the cocaine regions. I’m talking cocaine terroir. I fucking love that smell.

[–] HEXN3T@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

Is cocaine even active orally? I'm not convinced this even does anything, unless you want to quid Coca Cola

[–] dogs0n@sh.itjust.works 4 points 19 hours ago

It is active orally, I believe its a lot less effective in drink form though. People rub cocaine (powder) into their gums, that's common I think.

Coke ruined the taste when they removed the cocaine imo. It's horrible now, but still worth drinking on occasion (daily).

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 3 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

It makes your gums numb if you put it in your mouth. I know this much from experience.

[–] ryedaft@sh.itjust.works 1 points 8 hours ago

It was marketed as a "nasal anesthetic" at one point.
