Coffee in your coke?

[reader]

From Coconuts Bangkok

 

 

Ever mixed coffee and Coca Cola? Yeah, neither have we, and yet we’re about to get the chance to find out what it tastes like when limited-edition “Coke Plus Coffee,” a coffee-cola hybrid launched in Japan and Australia late last year, hits Thailand in just over a week.

 

The Thai version, which will enter the market on June 1, features Robusta coffee, the type of bean popularly grown in southern Thailand, and get this … it’s being marketed as “health drink,” because it has 50 percent less sugar than a regular cola.

 

Yep, you read that right. The product is being aimed at students and workers who need a little pick-me-up in the afternoon...

health drink it is not but it can give mild boost. Hopefully some boots on ground present there  at time of launching give us report if it worth of trouble

 report how it tastes to follow , I'm brave but not brave enough to try on my first day here

Enjoy your holiday

Thank you , believe me I already started although jet lag is killing me as usual on my second day.

 

As for coke with coffee I must say is not a bad and this comes from a guy, the me , who doesn't like neither coke nor coffee, 

 

Flavour and taste  is more caffeinated than  cocacolaed and is not as sweet as original thing,  I think diet coke lovers will like that new invention. Nevertheless I still think that best cold drink is cocktail - 50% of gin  and 50 % of gin but perhaps it's just me.
