The history of Coca Cola dates back to 1885, when John Pemberton invented the original recipe for a new coca wine. He called it Pemberton French Wine Coke, which was believed to be inspired by Vin Mariani, a popular coke wine invented by Angelo Mariani. Pemberton developed Coca-Cola, a non-alcoholic version of his original Cocawine, when Fulton County passed a prohibition law. The carbonated water was added later by accident when Pemberton was mixing drinks for a friend and, incidentally, included it. His friends loved the new flavor, so he modified the original formula to incorporate it.

Coca-Cola was said to cure many illnesses, including headaches, impotence, and the powerful addiction to morphine. In 1888, three versions of Coca-Cola were on the market, sold by three different companies. One company, Candler, bought the exclusive rights to the Coca-Cola formula from Woolfolk Walker, John Pemberton, and Margaret Dozier to eliminate competition.

This was the first great opportunity in the history of Coca Cola. Candler incorporated The Coca-Cola Company in 1982 and began marketing the product. The drink achieved US national icon status on its 50th anniversary. The Coca-Cola bottles were sold from 1894 and the cans in 1955. The first bottle was sold in Vicksburg, Mississippi. In 1899, Chattanooga, Tennessee became the first site of a Coca-Cola bottling company.

In Pemberton’s original formula, he added five ounces of coca leaf (cocaine) per gallon of syrup. Candler claimed he altered the formula and only added one-tenth of the amount. Coca Cola once contained an estimate of nine milligrams of cocaine per glass. It wasn’t until 1903 that it was completely removed from the drink, replacing it with coca flavoring.

“New Coke” came out in 1985 after Coca-Cola tried to change the original formula. Most consumers preferred the taste of the original Coca-Cola and many stopped buying the product until the company switched back to the original formula. Coca Cola Classic was renamed to show consumers that the drink had returned to its original formula.

In the 21st century, the history of Coca Cola took another leap in the market. In 2005, the company launched “Diet Coke”, sweetened with artificial flavors. Later, in 2005, it announced “Coca Cola Zero”, sweetened with aspartame and acesulfame potassium. Since then, the company has produced other products that contain the same Coca-Cola formula with minor differences.

Coca Cola is now sold all over the world, in more than 200 different countries. The Coca-Cola Company now sponsors a variety of events, including the “Olympics” and “NASCAR.” In England, it is the title sponsor of “The Football League”. He also appears on various television shows, including “The Gods Must Be Crazy.”

The history of Coca Cola has come a long way since Pemberton invented the original recipe and continues to grow by leaps and bounds. It’s no wonder it’s one of the leading soft drinks on the market.
