Coca-Cola would be green if coloring weren’t added to it.

On May 8, 1886 Dr. John Stith Pemberton made the first batch of syrup for Coca Cola. Another fun fact was that Coke was originally intended to be a type of medicine.

At one time, Coca Cola actually contained cocaine. How much cocaine each serving contained is unknown, but it was originally made with coca leaves and kola nuts, hints the name Coca Cola.

One 12 ounce can of Coca Cola contains approximately 45 mg. of caffeine.

Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the toilet bowl. Let the real thing sit for one hour, then brush and flush clean. The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous china.

Coca-Cola was first shipped in used whiskey kegs and barrels, but they were painted red to give them a distinctive mark. The color red has been associated with the product ever since.

By the 1950’s, automobile service stations sold more Coca-Cola than they did motor oil!
