Rum And Coca Cola - Barry Martyn Band

Advantages: Great tasting, readily available
Disadvantages: High accidic and sugar content, addictive

...I drink Coca-Cola nearly every day and have done so for many years since my parents have allowed me to have fizzy drinks. I have never found a cola that I prefer over this product even after trying lots of other brands some being large competitors of coca-colas. I feel this is definitely one of the best well know fizzy drinks in the country if not even more than just our country, definately the leading brand in the cola industry. This is the first brand I walk to when shopping for fizzy drinks and will be for many years to come.

Disadvantages: lots of sugar.

...When it comes to product recognition is there anything quite as easily identifiable as Coca-Cola. Even from a distance the white script writing on a red background is instantly recognised as probably the most popular soft drink brand that has ever existed. This is not all that surprising when you consider that Coke has been around in one form or another for 116 years. Coca Cola was invented by a Dr J S Pemberton in 1886 using coca leaves and the kola nut as a basis though this was his second attempt at making a coca based drink. Dr J S Pemberton unfortunately didn?t live long after Coke?s invention, as he was already ill but by then he had sold shares in the business and upon his death in 1888 Asa G. Candler purchased the company for a mere $2,300. Candler knew that he had picked a winner as in 1919 he sold the company to Ernest... Read review
