Coke Recipe | Coca Cola Coke Recipe


Coke Recipe | Coca Cola Coke RecipeSince it was first made in 1886, the Coca-Cola formula is one of the most fiercely guarded trade secrets of the corporate world. Many claimed to have found it, but the mystery of Merchandise 7X, the name given to the combination of secret ingredients which gives the soft drink its distinctive taste, has endured. Now an American public radio show claims to have found the recipe kept in an Atlanta steel vault and which, it is said, only two employees at a time know how to mix. The two never fly together.

'This American Life', broadcast on more than 500 stations, said it found the recipe in a 40-year-old newspaper. Its website, thisamericanlife.org, said the Atlanta Journal-Constitution published the photo of a book containing a handwritten replica of the original recipe on February 8, 1979.



The drink was created by pharmacist John Pemberton in 1886.
