Coca-Cola launched coffee in a can — aptly titled Coca-Cola with Coffee — in the US this week after several years of offering it abroad and testing similar combinations stateside like Coca-Cola Blak.
The new blend is branded as a “refreshment coffee” that “sips like a coke and finishes like a coffee.”
Sounds gross.

“Many people are often torn between reaching for a soft drink or a coffee at 3 p.m. at work, at school or on the go,” Brandon Strickland, brand director of Coca-Cola Trademark, said in a statement. “Now, you don’t need to leave Coca-Cola to get your coffee fix.”
The caffeine-packed beverage was first launched in 2018 in Japan. The US is the 50th market — and largest — to get it, the company said.
Coca-Cola is teaming up with Walmart in the US in a pilot to deliver the new product via drone in Coffee County, Ga, the company said.
Coca-Cola with Coffee is made from Brazilian beans and comes in three flavors in 12 oz cans: Dark Blend, Vanilla and Caramel – and its zero-sugar brand.
We definitely won’t be trying this, but for all you Coke & coffee addicts out there — knock yourselves out.
