Modern Classic | New Coke taste test, decades after it was discontinued! @ModernClassic | Uploaded July 2019 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
This is a quick little video where I taste test New Coke - something I never would have thought I could say in the year 2019. New Coke was Coca Cola's answer to the Pepsi Challenge in 1985, only instead of just introducing a new flavor, they completely replaced their iconic soft drink with this new formula. The backlash was swift and severe and Coke's original formula was brought back less than a year later as Coca Cola Classic, which is still on the market as just Coca Cola.
Now in a tie-in with nostalgia factory Stranger Things, Coke has brought back New Coke for a limited time and by mail-order only. I thought that was weird/interesting/funny, so I bought a box of it. Watch me taste test it here!
