While I've discussed Coca-Cola many times on this blog, I haven't gotten around to reviewing their vanilla Coke before now despite the fact that Coca-Cola Vanilla was first released back in the Spring of 2002.
Over the years I've tasted this soda many times. When it first came on the market I thought it tasted quite good. While true soda jerks in pharmacies regularly mixed vanilla with Coca-Cola many decades ago, the fact that old-fashioned soda fountains don't really exist anymore meant I'd not had the pleasure until this product came about. It was new and exciting to me. It also marked the beginning of the many flavor varieties, including limited edition flavors, that Coca-Cola and Pepsi have continued to this day. But personally I felt like it became a bit trite over time and I just didn't enjoy it after a while. Could it even be possible that Coca-Cola changed the recipe? In any case, these days I find the vanilla too overpowering and sweet. I rarely drink Coca-Vanilla these days, usually only imbibing when it's the only option.
