A common human tendency is that, we feel super excited and happy whenever something secret is disclosed - no matter whether it’s useful or not! And so is the latest buzz.... "Open Happiness"- a phrase that we all are acquainted with. World's largest selling soft drink Coca Cola's century’s old debated recipe has been revealed. The secret is unfolded by thisamericanlife on their front page recently. Now we all know what goes on in the 125 years old happiness factory.
The unique flavor of Coke comes from 7 spices. Those are, alcohol, orange oil, lemon oil, nutmeg oil, coriander oil, neroli oil and cinnamon oil. The syrup is made up of water, sugar, caramel (for coloring), fluid extract of coca, vanilla extract, caffeine, lime juice and citric acid. Then this syrup is mixed with carbonated water in 1:5 ratio (1 part syrup to 5 parts bubbly water) to make the soda. The website has given full instruction on how to make it at home with a legal note at the end. So you can ask me to taste & approve when your homemade Coke is ready :)
i really don't understand why they revealed their secret recipe!
ReplyDeleteIt was revealed by This american Life, the company still denies the recipe....
ReplyDeleteThey cliam only 2 people at a time know the recipe & those two never travel on the same plane in case it crashes; it’s this carefully passed-on secret ritual and the formula is kept in a bank vault!
