Coca-Cola Life: The latest addition to the Coca-Cola family by Lucas Chapman

I stopped drinking diet soft drinks because I have bad reactions to aspartame

I stopped drinking diet soft drinks because I have bad reactions to aspartame. It's hard to find good tasting carbonated drinks that aren't sweetened with aspartame. But, with Coke Life I really like that it is a natural sweetener and i do like the taste. I'm hoping that more soft drink brands follow this type of product.

I actually really like it. I didn't expect it to be healthy

I was given a case of Coke Life from a friend who found it. And surprisingly I actually really liked it. I didn't expect it to be healthy, it's a Coke product after all. But I was curious about the taste. It is much better tasting than the other stevia soft drinks out there. However, I found It was less "fizzy" than regular Coke and I heard it was more fizzy. The sweetness is somewhere between regular Coke and Coke zero. At 90 calories per can, it's a decent option for people who want to cut calories, but not give up coke.

Surprisingly good

I was surprised how good this was. Reminded me of the old Coke I used to get in the 80's and I feel less guilty drinking them, lol

I was surprised how much I like it. I can no longer drink diet soft drinks ...

My son bought me a bottle of Coke Life. I was surprised how much I like it. I can no longer drink diet soft drinks so I have to cut down. This will be a good alternative for when I do.

I don't hate it but probably won't buy it again

I'd probably give this 3.5 stars if it was an option. I was looking for a different source of caffeine and thought I'd give this a try. To me, the taste is much more tolerable than than other natural sweetened soft drinks. This does taste a bit odd compared with regular Coke; somewhere between artificial and too sweet. But I guess I've had regular Coke in restaurants sometimes when the mixture isn't the best, and this was better than those times. It doesn't have too much of a bad aftertaste. I actually found it more pleasant after it started to warm up.

For me personally, I love the taste of Classic Coke so I'd stick with the extra calories just for the better taste, But if you're looking to cut out some calories and are ok with a somewhat different taste, I'd recommend trying it.

It's delicious!

lucaschapman93 — 2015-05-18 03:34:30 UTC

It's delicious! I am a recovering Diet Cokeaholic, where i used to drink at least 2 litres a day! I needed to get away from aspartame and there is just nothing out there to replace that great Diet Coke taste and fizz, but this by far the closest. Very enjoyable. Maybe a tad too sweet, but not off putting and not a deal breaker. I hope the carbonated drink companies keep heading in this direction finding an even lower or no calorie choice without the harmful chemicals.

Coke Life Is Best Low calorie soft drink on the market.

At 58 years old, I would say I'm a coke fan. But the high sugar content pushed me to diet coke, which I do not like. Just tried this new product and it is perfect.

I REALLY LIKE IT

lucaschapman93 — 2015-05-18 04:07:00 UTC

I really hope it stays. I quit drinking Classic Coke because of the sugar. I don't drink it every day as I try to stick to water but on days where it is really hot and I am wanting a different drink other than water, I reach for my bottle of Diet Coke. So please don't discontinue this product after being released.

All natural sweetners!!!

lucaschapman93 — 2015-05-18 04:07:26 UTC

Stevia all the way!

NEW FAVORITE!!

lucaschapman93 — 2015-05-18 04:08:09 UTC

This product is fantastic! I can't stand artificial sweeteners and therefore, have always despised diet and sugar-free drinks. However, the trade-off has been to seriously limit my soda intake because of the high calories. Coke Life has saved the day! It has just the right balance of sugar and stevia - there is no bad aftertaste. I have now found a replacement for my soft drink purchases in this new lower calorie version.

Don't be fooled!!!

lucaschapman93 — 2015-05-18 04:09:17 UTC

Don't be fooled! This is far from being a healthy drink! "Natural stevia" is HIGHLY processed. But, because of it's plant origins, it gets labeled "natural". On top of that, Coke "life" still has sugar!! Just because something has stevia in it doesn't mean it is good for you! Coke numbers have been down because the consumers are getting more health conscious!

Great Idea and I Really Enjoy Drinking It

lucaschapman93 — 2015-05-18 04:10:03 UTC

Totally love it. I saw it for the first time in my local store so I decided to buy it. I shared it with my girlfriend and a few others and it got great feedback.

I love that it's not TOO sweet, I love that it's sweetened with a natural sweetener and I hope it becomes a mainstay.

Still a disgusting diet taste.

lucaschapman93 — 2015-05-18 04:10:41 UTC

It was horrible, I wouldn't buy it again. It tastes too similar to diet.

Five Stars

lucaschapman93 — 2015-05-18 04:11:18 UTC

good stuff

Absolute rubbish

lucaschapman93 — 2015-05-18 04:12:04 UTC

Have to give one star as this is tasteless. Might as well just suck on air. Pepsi Max is not using natural sweeteners but it is much better!

Very impressed! LOVE it!

lucaschapman93 — 2015-05-18 04:14:52 UTC

So I am a bit disappointed that this is not a "true" diet drink, there is still plenty of sugar, however it's a lot better than the classic Coke. I tried Pepsi's version True, which is also yummy, but this is much better. I still hope that Pepsi True can get it together, because the more Stevia drinks available on the market, the better.

Coke Life comes in cans and bottles. I love it in the bottles and hope that the price goes down as its using a natural source. I've been trying to limit my sugar intake and this works for that reason! I really don't sense a "diet" taste - it tastes like a full-flavored old version classic Coke to me!

Five Stars

Great alternative to sugar or artificial sweetener. Natural sweeteners are the way to go these days. Pepsi's version is good too.

Nice attempt to break free of aspartame, but it made me sick

lucaschapman93 — 2015-05-18 04:16:23 UTC

Bad taste. It made me sick, shaky, stiff, nauseous, and a bit dizzy.
Read about the side effects of Stevia. It also does not mix well with sugar. Stevia effects the hormones and lowers blood sugar in an unnatural way.

Nice attempt of Coca Cola to break free of aspartame and other artificial sweeteners that are forced into our foods and drinks but this won't sell.

Please make a product with NO SWEETENER; Here's an idea, how about let us add our own??

My husband is Diabetic and doesn't care for diet soft drinks ...

lucaschapman93 — 2015-05-18 04:17:04 UTC

My husband is Diabetic and doesn't care for diet soft drink. We'd been searching everywhere to find something he likes AND doesn't put him in Insulin shock. This works.

Great Product

lucaschapman93 — 2015-05-18 04:17:51 UTC

Great Product with 30 Percent of the calories. Can't wait to see it on my local shelves. Usually, I drink Pepsi Next which is also sweetened with splenda and no aspartame, but this taste much better with zero artificial sweeteners. BEEN A LONG TIME COMING!
