Diet Coke Plus was a carbonated soft drink produced by The Coca-Cola Company. It was introduced in 2007 as a variation of the popular Diet Coke brand. Diet Coke Plus was marketed as a healthier alternative to regular Diet Coke, as it contained added vitamins and minerals. However, the product was discontinued in 2010 due to low sales.
History[edit | edit source]
Diet Coke Plus was launched in response to the growing demand for healthier beverage options. The Coca-Cola Company aimed to capitalize on the success of Diet Coke by offering a version that provided additional nutritional benefits. The drink was fortified with vitamins and minerals, including niacin, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, zinc, and magnesium.
Ingredients[edit | edit source]
The ingredients of Diet Coke Plus included carbonated water, caramel color, phosphoric acid, natural flavors, aspartame, potassium benzoate, acesulfame potassium, caffeine, sucralose, and various vitamins and minerals.
Nutritional Information[edit | edit source]
Diet Coke Plus was a zero-calorie beverage, meaning it contained no calories. It was sweetened with a combination of aspartame, acesulfame potassium, and sucralose. The drink also contained caffeine, although the exact amount was not specified.
Discontinuation[edit | edit source]
Despite the initial hype surrounding Diet Coke Plus, the product failed to gain significant traction in the market. Consumers did not perceive the added vitamins and minerals as a compelling enough reason to choose Diet Coke Plus over other diet soda options. As a result, The Coca-Cola Company decided to discontinue the product in 2010.
