Coca-Cola has shown its first major new Cola in nearly a decade: Coke Life. It comes in a green can, with a small leaf logo, and promises to be much healthier than standard Coke.
A 330ml can has 89 calories - a third less than the standard Coke. That is because, alongside sugar, it also uses stevia(甜叶菊)leaf from the stevia plant. This naturally very sweet plant has zero calories. The company hopes that many consumers will not be able to tell the difference between "green Coke" and normal Coke.
James Quincey at Coca-Cola Europe says: "With Coca-Cola Life, we have provided consumers with a new choice with fewer calories, and provided people with a great-tasting, lower calorie cola sweetened from natural sources." The company says that the sugar used in standard Coke in the UK is from natural sources, grown in fields.
Also, Coke Life despite being lower calories still contains 22g of sugar -- a quarter of an adult can have in a day.
The news hit the streets of central London to find out whether consumers could tell Coca-Cola Life from normal Coca-Cola, and which drink they preferred. In all, nearly thirty people had the taste test, with the most of them, especially regular Coke consumers, able to tell they were different drinks.
