I like both, but mixing the two does not really appeal to me...
Quote:COCA-COLA BLĀK TO MAKE ITS WORLDWIDE DEBUT
France will be First of Many Key Markets to Launch in 2006
Atlanta, December 07, 2005 - The Coca-Cola Company today announced that it will launch Coca-Cola Blāk in January in France, the first of several countries – including the United States - that are expected to introduce the new Coca-Cola and coffee fusion in 2006.
Coca-Cola Blāk is an invigorating and stimulating blend that has a perfect balance of the effervescent taste sensation of Coca-Cola and natural flavors, with real coffee. The lightly carbonated, mid-calorie beverage, which is designed to appeal to adult consumers, is yet another example how The Coca-Cola Company reaches out to new audiences and addresses new beverage occasions.
"Coca-Cola Blāk is not just a flavor extension. It is a blend of unique Coke refreshment with the true essence of coffee and has a rich smooth texture and has a coffee-like froth when poured. We believe we have created a new category of soft drink – an adult product in a carbonated beverage – and a whole new drinking experience. This brand is ideal for any part of the day when people are looking for renewed energy or simply to take a break," said Marc Mathieu, vice president, Global Core Brands, The Coca-Cola Company.
The launch will be supported by television, print, outdoor and in-store communication. Advertising and creative for Coca-Cola Blāk will be developed locally and regionally.

I bet that it's not going to be bad..It can't be or they would have just scrapped the idea in the lab.

I can't see how this could possibly taste good...do people really want carbonated coffee? Ew.

Does anyone remember Pepsi Kona? It was the same awful logic, but didn't taste all that bad...

Seeing as I am in the thick of exams, I went downstairs and brewed up a pot of coffee with which to attemt this concoction. The result was surprisingly good! I am completely wired now and well-equipped to plow through an all nighter! I don't think it is somthing I will drink often, but it is pretty damn good.

I hope they bring clear pepsi back. I really want to try it again. It'd probably be a pretty cool retro campaign.

I like this idea, I cant wait to try it. I dont drink coffee but sometimes I need a boost, and just might be what I need.
Imagine a world before the "beginning was the word.”

As a lover of coffee, I find this product to be nothing short of blasphemous. Eeee. I hope coffee/Coke lovers enjoy themselves, but I'll be sitting this trend out.
