Cherry Coke

[Grimspoon]

For anyone that hasn't seen them yet, you can get cherry coke again, well for a limited time, says "limited edition" on the bottle but it is made here.

I loved cherry coke before it was taken off the market, every chance I get I buy an overpriced one at the butcher or wherever I spot them. Super stoked its the same price as a normal coke

Only seen them in 500ml bottles though. Good enough!

I've been buying them at SPAR for a few months now, R15 a can

I just want our Vanilla Coke to return. The one I had in the UK was disgusting and nothing like our old one.

So it will just be equally disgusting. Not exactly a solution.

Spar has been selling this and Vanilla Coke for years. It's expensive though but so good

Cherry coke taste like cough medicine to me.

And it is far, far too sweet.

The one PnP in Howick was selling them for R6 a can two weeks back.

We bought a fair amount

Amen brother. Had few 1.5l bottles a month ago while in Singapore. Not as good as I remember them here. I really hope SABMiller will come to their senses and start making it again.

Yeah I'm not a fan. Nice for one or two sips and then it kills me. I prefer Cherry Pepsi more as it's not quite as overpoweringly sweet. That's not to say that I would seek out Cherry Pepsi though.

Cherry Coke is overpowering in its inclusion of the cherry flavour, so I don't think our old Vanilla Coke was like it at all. The Vanilla Coke in the UK is definitely similar though as it's also horrible and overpowering. Our old one was basically regular Coke with a slight hint of vanilla. Very nice. I reckon it was discontinued because it was cannibalising (the more profitable) normal Coke sales - Vanilla Coke was by far the most popular drink throughout my high school years when it was around. My local Spar also kept a very sizable stock of Vanilla Coke, at least as large but probably bigger than the normal Coke selection.

I think cheery coke sounds so much nicer than cherry benzoylmethylecgonine
