Vanilla Coke?
-
It should be available within the month, if my friend who works for Coke is correct :) I've had some (again, through the friend), and lemme tell you that the canned vanilla coke is to fountain vanilla coke what canned cherry coke is to fountain cherry coke - a reasonable immitation, but nowhere near as good as the real thing. -- Russell Morris "WOW!

Kewl. I might just go down to the WOC to try it out! Cheers, Tom Archer Author - Inside C#, Visual C++.NET Bible

Is this available yet? I'm trying to imagine what it'll taste like, but I haven't managed to. Maybe it'll taste like liquid biscuits.

Apparently trendy people, in big cities already put Vanilla syrup (and other flavours) into Coke. Me being in the middle of nowhere, at the back end of beyond, that hasn't reached me here. Actually I'd like to try it, I think it might be kinda nice, but then I like anything that's sweet :-D. ali p

Not really trendy. Vanilla coke and other additives to sodas has their roots in the old drug store soda fountains in the early 20th century. So when you get right down to it, vanilla coke is just a repeat product. :) Tim Smith I know what you're thinking punk, you're thinking did he spell check this document? Well, to tell you the truth I kinda forgot myself in all this excitement. But being this here's CodeProject, the most powerful forums in the world and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question, Do I feel lucky? Well do ya punk?

simons wrote: What's this? By fountain I meant hand-made - actually taking a regular coke and putting some vanilla extract in it. Same thing for fountain cherry coke - take a regular coke and put some maraschino cherry juice in it. And of course, Coke itself tastes much better when it is mixed on-the-spot with a fountain machine than it does out of a can or bottle. -- Russell Morris "WOW!

Go ahead and make some yourself - I guarantee you it will taste better than anything that comes out of a can. For some Vanilla Coke, just take a little Vanilla Extract and put it in a Coke poured over ice. For Cherry Coke, buy a can of maraschino cherries (the bright red ones in syrup) and pour some of the syrup and a couple of the cherries in a Coke poured over ice. Both are wonderfully delicious. In fact, I think I'll make some right now... ;) -- Russell Morris "WOW! Chocolate - half price!" - Homer Simpson, while in the land of chocolate.

I think I'll make some too... Guess I'll go to the store and get some Coke now :) James Simplicity Rules!

Also, Malibu Rum and Coke mix really well as Malibu has a vanilla_ish_ flavor. Jeremy L. Falcon "You do not know the power of the dumb side." Homepage : Sonork = 100.16311

It's more of a licorice flavor. -- Russell Morris "WOW! Chocolate - half price!" - Homer Simpson, while in the land of chocolate.

Yuck - Vodka goes nicely with loads of things - but coke is definately not one of them. Simon Following an eye test, I have discovered that I do not need pointdexter-style glasses with 6-inch thick steel frames in order to continue staring at my monitor. How gutted am I? Sonork ID 100.10024

It depends how you do it. I've seen people pour a glass three quarters full of cheap vodka, then top it off with coke, and then have question me when I start flinching with pain as they try and maintain a clear face while they endure the torture. X| On the other hand, three parts coca cola to one part red square vodka served on the rocks is quite possibly one of the nicest drinks you can make yourself for under 50p a go. ____________________ David Wulff hu·mour Pronunciation Key (hymr) n. & v.

Tom, You live in Atlanta, right? Have you been to the Coke museum there? My wife went there many years ago and she said that they have hundreds of soda flavors that they test and market around the world. I'm pretty sure that a vanilla flavor of coke has probably been around since they first started making coke. -John

John Morales wrote: I'm pretty sure that a vanilla flavor of coke has probably been around since they first started making coke Hmm. I haven't thought about the fact that they probably have it way before the commerical release. I might just jot down there this weekend. Thanks!

Does it have a kind of "coke float" taste? coke float n. The combination of combining coca-cola (tm) and ice cream (typically vanilla). Cheers, Tom Archer Author - Inside C#, Visual C++.NET Bible

Back when you had your soda fountains in the neighborhood drug store you would find many flavors of coke. To be conscious that you are ignorant of the facts is a great step towards Knowledge. Benjamin Disraeli

Oooh! Sounds nice. I didn't realise it was that simple (I'm a bit slow sometimes), I'll give it a go and report the results. :-D ali p
