Vanilla Coke?
-
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
Maybe my mangling might misguide malicious miscreants momentarily? -
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. X| X| X| And I'm just presuming that it'll be a sickly green/beige color? Cheers, Simon "Every good work of software starts by scratching a developer's personal itch.", Eric S. Raymond

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

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

Ok. But you made your remark about my "logic" as though there's something wrong with me stating that I'm Turkish. I was born in Izmir, Turkey. My mother is Turkish. I spoke Turk before English and have Turkish citizenship (actually dual with my US citizenship). I fail to see how I'm not Turkish. Cheers, Tom Archer Author - Inside C#, Visual C++.NET Bible

I think we're using different words for the same thing. By 'fountain' I mean the thingy that mixes soda-water, cola-syrup, and water as they pour into your cup.
