The ingredients for making a cola are vanilla, caramel flavor, sugar, and lime/lemon juice. Add to seltzer water. Try it at home, close your eyes and enjoy home-made cola without any mutant high fructose corn syrup.

My favorite was definitely the "Two Guys" video. Although the "live" feed was amusing too.

@Landotter1 Back in the 1880s when Dr. Pemberton came up with the formula, cola nut extract was used to flavor medicines, which makes sense, since he was a pharmacist by trade. Today, the cola plant is probably only used for soda pop!

@enerams
Coca Cola does not contain caramel. It contains caramel color, which is a very different ingredient; caramel color is a name that alludes to the widely known dark amber hue that results from the breaking down of sucrose at high temperatures.

@GravityGraphics not exactly, it says the basic ingredients, but notice how it says "Natural Flavors" instead of specifying it, those are the secret ingredients

@Landotter1 also, when people became dependent on the cocaine, The derivative we know now as caffine was found as a alternative to cocaine by giving the same good affect's with less of the dependency and bad effect's. So like oxycotin is to herion. Caffine is to cocaine.

im at a young age and coca colas my LOVE THIS!!!! THANK YOU FOR PUTTING IT ON YOUTUBE!!!! :)

[galoon]

@mikethemikeonair Yep, the secret ingredients are within that "natural flavors" description. We know that cola nut extract has to be one of those. I'm sure there are others; maybe a combination of spices and other natural plant extracts, etc. but I can't make a good guess at what they are!

Ingredients in Coca-Cola include carbonated water, glucose-fructose, kola nut extract, and caramel color. Coca-Cola does contain caffeine.

I'd like to teach the world to sing
In perfect harmony
I'd like to hold it in my arms
And keep it company
I'd like to see the world for once
All standing hand in hand
And hear them echo through the hills
For peace throughout the land
Put your hand in my hand
Let's begin today
Put your hand in my hand
Help me find the way

LOVE it. Gosh, in the next two years when I graduate with my Bachelor's in Marketing, it looks like I'll be entering a very fun and intriguing field... :)

[csdimitris]

@eldiosdedios actually it was cocaine, when it became illegal they took the ingredient out

[Holygiant]

I saw this ad on TV and was inclined to look it up. It's pretty cool. Didn't find any secrets though D:

[fourfriedchickens]

No, not actual cocaine, but a derivative from the coca shrub that had a somewhat similar effect but not nearly as strong...
