Coca Cola to re introduce Vanilla Coke to the UK

ubersonic · 15 Mar 2013 at 09:35

In March 2013, Coca Cola decided to re introduce Vanilla Coke to the United Kingdom due to "High demands". As it is only limited edition in the UK, Coca Cola announced "If we make good sales, Coke Vanilla shall stay within the UK Beverage market. We understand how much our customers love Vanilla Coke". However, Vanilla Coke in the UK has been re introduced with new packaging.

And for a short time, all is once again well in the world

Indeed. Do they do it in diet as well, or just regular?

Always liked the Cherry flavoured Coke myself but don't see it around these days.

Why was it removed from the shelves in the first place?

If i end up on the news from drowning in all the vanilla coke it buy, don't be surprised.

Kind Regards,

Must not have been a good enough seller. Can't think of any other reason.

Perhaps it's to give it a sales boom when they bring it back. It's a bit like McDonalds and the Big Tasty - easily the best burger they do by a country mile but more often than not it's unavailable.

It's been in my store for 2 weeks now,had a few bottles and does indeed taste good

There needs to be a diet option as full fat is rank

I'd like to know this, too. Any chance of a Vanilla Coke Zero?

Normal Cola is bad, with vanilla it's even worse!

Huh?! Can't move without tripping over the stuff here. Girlfriend is always buying it, and I prefer it to normal coke myself, so we get it on our weekly shop.

Edit: Just seen your in NI, that explains it.

Lots of great things are coming back to the UK.

I got me some Golden Grahams this week!

I laugh when I hear people say the "zero sugar" and "diet" versions are better for you, they're much much worse.

Don't listen to this man, he knows nothing. The M is obviously the best McDonalds burger by a country mile.

I don't understand why it isn't available in the UK all the time.
On the continent it's on the shelves - whenever we go to France it's there sharing shelf space with all the other varieties.
Personally I won't be touching it - because I can think of better things to use over half my daily allowance of sugar on.
Now Vanilla Zero is top stuff. Almost the same taste and of course zero calories and sugar.
