Coke Plus Coffee

# 88 I don’t expect many or even anyone on here has tried this yet. It was recently launched (around two weeks ago, I think) exclusively for Australia. It is Coca-cola Plus Coffee. So it is a combination of the original Coca-cola with a taste of real coffee from Brazil. Many were thrown off by the idea of double caffeine dose. But it says that while it has a bit more of caffeine than the classic Coca-cola, it is still less than the same amount of regular latte. I don’t usually drink soda much at all. But my husband was curious of the taste so he bought a bottle of 600ml pictured. I only took a sip and he drank the rest. It says no sugar but it has a sweet caramel-like taste. It has a similar taste of Coke Vanilla, except that this one obviously has the taste of coffee.

I cannot stand the taste of Coke and I will not ruin my coffee for a test.

Yes, you would probably better off staying away from this product...

@sishy7 I have always thought that Coke has the taste of a bad medicine.

@LadyDuck And I'm not sure how they chose Australia to try out this new flavor... They probably thought we're a nation of coffee-lovers who would be easily sold of this new idea...

I can't "picture" the taste of that . . . I wonder if it could be achieved by making my own batch . I'm not big on soda, but I do enjoy black coffee . . . I would try it if it ever comes here! I think of Red Bull, or that Jolt . . . but I think those have super amounts of caffeine in it.

@sishy7 Bubbly coffee - yah, that would be strange! So it's more coffee tasting than Coke? Is it becoming very popular out there?

I like iced coffee but this did not hit me even as iced coffee... I think the carbonated coffee taste is just too strange for me.

@much2say I'm not sure how popular it is... They're pretty new, maybe not many have tried them yet... But the few that I know have tried it were not too thrilled about this new taste of Coke.

@hereandthere Oh, I didn't know they have that in Brazil... Maybe it did... Because I was thinking either 'mocha' or 'caramel' when I tasted it...

Hmmm...I think I'll pass. I like Coke. Well, I like Coca-Cola, never did like Coke, too expensive for one thing. And I like coughee. But Coke and coughee just doesn't sound like a combination I would like. Kind of like bacon-flavored ice cream. Just nope. (Edit) - While we're on the subject, I saw an idiot snort a line of instant coughee once...

Were you a fan of this type of coke Sishy? Coke has sort of a distinct flavor. It is definitely a different idea. We'll see if it is a good one?

Can't say that I'm a fan of Coke, but I don't mind the taste of classic Coke. This new flavor, however, is too strange for me to like it...

@sishy7 If I want soda with a little vanilla flavor I buy A&W Cream soda which tastes very good. I've gotten away from drinking coke, but I don't mind it.

I have both at home. However, I am not interested in trying this new drink. I am afraid I will ruin two of these drinks I like hot coffee and cold Coca Cola. So they can't mix together.

That's right... Somehow this is not a combination that people would expect to find together in a bottle...

@sishy7 Drink companies are all trying to come up with new gimmicks to compete in different markets. Seems as if they are trying to reinvent the wheel.

As far as I know it's a limited edition flavor only in Australia and they tried out the same flavor with sugar in Japan.
