Gourt Home::Gourt :: Coca-Cola with Lime
Coca-Cola with Lime is a variation of the original Coca-Cola. It was introduced in North America in the first quarter of 2005. The formula is the same as regular Coke but with added lime flavor. The decision to market the product was based on popular feedback from consumers in 2004 with the release of Diet Coke with Lime. Some consumers feel that the lime taste is barely perceptible, while others feel that the soda's other citrus flavorings overpower it. Some, though, say that it is just as strong as other flavored Coke products (examples: Cherry Coke, Vanilla Coke, etc)
An advertisement of Coca-Cola with Lime first appeared on television during the March 7, 2005 broadcast of American Idol. The ad uses the late Harry Nilsson's hit "Coconut" in a slightly altered form with the punchline, "You put the lime in the Coke, you nut."
Coca-Cola with Lime is now available in the UK, with regular television advertising promoting the product. Coca-Cola with Lime is also now available in the Republic of Ireland and Sweden. It was also tested in The Netherlands as limited summer edition 2005 and is now widely available in that country.
Coke Citra is available in New Zealand and Japan.
