New Coke taste test, decades after it was discontinued!

This is a quick little video where I taste test New Coke - something I never would have thought I could say in the year 2019. New Coke was Coca Cola's answer to the Pepsi Challenge in 1985, only instead of just introducing a new flavor, they completely replaced their iconic soft drink with this new formula. The backlash was swift and severe and Coke's original formula was brought back less than a year later as Coca Cola Classic, which is still on the market as just Coca Cola.
Now in a tie-in with nostalgia factory Stranger Things, Coke has brought back New Coke for a limited time and by mail-order only. I thought that was weird/interesting/funny, so I bought a box of it. Watch me taste test it here!

[@FLUFFSQUEAKER]

I thought he would taste test an original 34 year old can of it

[@TheAnkMan]

Me too. I wonder if the content of a 34 year old can is still drinkable. In another channel somebody tastes field rations from all wars the US was involved down to WW II. Amazingly it tasted good he said. Coffee made from the powder had a nice taste you don't get today anymore.

[@visionz4081]

Eighties Seeker well no duh. WW2 rations were meant to be able to stay edible for long periods of time. Lmao 😂 wtf u mean we don’t get that anymore. I’m sure we could make it if we wanted to but there’s no point. And I’m sure the Coke would be fine. It would just be very flat

Correction: New Coke was introduced on April 23, 1985. The announcement of Coca-Cola Classic's return came on either July 10 or July 11, 1985. New Coke would be renamed to Coke II in 1992, and it would continue to be sold in select areas until it finally left the shelves forever in 2002.

[@DavidRavenMoon]

Coke II also became Diet Coke.

[@EddieMillerStudios]

Actually, Diet Coke predates New Coke by 3 years. Diet Coke debuted in 1982, and New Coke debuted in 1985. In fact, the New Coke formula was apparently created by modifying the Diet Coke formula.

[@DavidRavenMoon]

Eddie Miller You are correct. Apparently they are both based on Tab.

[@EddieMillerStudios]

TaB is Coke's original diet drink from 1963. Here's how things went down. 1963 ~ TaB is created 1982 ~ Diet Coke replaces TaB as Coke's #1 diet soda*. 1985 ~ New Coke debuts, it's formula being based on the 1982 Diet Coke formula. * On a side note, TaB is still available in some parts of the country, but only in 12 packs of cans. One of my local supermarkets has it in stock, and I love it.

[@DavidRavenMoon]

Eddie Miller From Wikipedia: “Diet Coke does not use a modified form of the Coca-Cola recipe, but instead an entirely different formula based on the Tab formula. The controversial New Coke, introduced in 1985, used a version of the Diet Coke recipe that contained high fructose corn syrup and had a slightly different balance of ingredients.”

[@jeenkzk5919]

I remember seeing a study that people chose Pepsi at first but found that on a regular basis they preferred Coke Classic because the sweetness was toned down.

I college when New Coke came out. One of my roommates was a big Coke fan, always had it on hand. He laid in a big stockpile of real Coke before the switch, smart move. We tried New Coke and it was universally a big disappointment around the house. My recollection was that it was a lot more "chemical" tasting than real Coke, things that could not have come from Nature, if you will. I ended up buying regular Pepsi instead, and that was fine.

[@diehardfan22]

Spencer Coonway that’s true i forgot thanks for explaining

[@2011joser]

My recollections are the same. New coke just had no subtlety to its flavor. It achieved its goal of giving you a shot of sweetness and carbonation . Here in California the mexican grocery stores came to the rescue. They had already been “unofficially” importing mexican coke because their customers preffered it because it still had real sugar. They eventually started sticking english content labels on the bottles to comply with regulations. To this day you can still buy mexican bottled coke in those stores.

[@tarabooartarmy3654]

My husband and I prefer Mexican Coke. I don’t drink if often because I’m diabetic and have to avoid sugar, but every once in a while I have a few sips because it’s just sooooo good. I’ve always preferred Coke in glass bottles, anyway. I miss when you could get the glass bottles from Coke machines!

[@2011joser]

@@tarabooartarmy3654 As a frequent traveler to Mexico I would bring 3 liter bottles home for years.

[@donaldperez7981]

Not that my opinion counts,or anything, but many years ago, when I was a kid, there was a blind taste test of all colas; not just for Coke or Pepsi, and you know which one won?, R.C.

[@jtthomas2685]

Seems to be doing better this time compared to in 1985 though. People made it seem as though it tasted drastically different. It tastes a lot better than people said and we are glad they brought it back. Here is my thought on the 3 (Pepsi, Coke and New Coke)...New Coke tastes basically the same as old Coke/regular Coke, just slightly sweeter but not by much, and it does not have that bitter, chalky aftertaste on your tongue that old Coke has. It has a cleaner finish. As far as Pepsi it is sweeter than all 3. But honestly...if you gave someone New Coke without telling them it was New Coke they would not notice the difference and think they were drinking old Coke instead. Having the word "NEW" on the packaging is really the only thing making us aware there is a difference, and it is a very subtle difference. So it heightens our awareness to it being a different taste before we even drink it. Not sure what the big deal was in 1985, perhaps the backlash was all a marketing scam and planned all along? But it is not that much different and most people would not notice the difference.

[@ModernClassic]

I don't think it tastes *anything* like regular Coke. I don't think it tastes like anything at all, really. It's bad.

[@midnight-2021]

I heard that New Coke uses high fructose corn syrup similar to Coke, but the rest of the New Coke formula is similar to Diet Coke. So New Coke is Diet Coke with high fructose corn syrup.

[@toronado455]

Wow only two cans of new Coke in that box!? I would have guessed it was at least a 6 pack!

[@greenabyss5114]

New Coke lasted until 2002 in the USA and until 2007 in Micronesia. New Coke lasted 77 days before Coca-Cola classic was sold along side it. So from 1985-2002 both versions were still sold in the USA. It was renamed Coke II in 1992. The only difference was Caffeine Free New Coke was the only variant until 1990 when it was replaced by Caffeine Free Coca-Cola classic. New Coke on the other hand Had 4 logo changes (the one with the "New!" banner, which lasted 6-12 months, the same logo with the removal of the "new" banner in 1986-1988, an italic styled logo with blue replacing the silver in the dynamic ribbon in 1988-1992, and a name change to Coke II in 1992). Once the name change happened it was sold in select cities and was never advertised oddly. As far as taste.... Most people still mix up New Coke and old Coke in blind taste tests though. I have seen nearly every taste test video on here and they usually chose New Coke over old Coke and Pepsi without realizing it, or they think New Coke is old Coke and old Coke is New Coke.

[@ModernClassic]

"Coke II" was a *reintroduction* of New Coke in 1990 that was only available in certain cities. It was never available nationally. And I'm sorry, but New Coke tastes absolutely nothing like original Coke. Give me a break.

[@Cybernetic_Systems]

You might be interested to know that Coke in Australia has always been made with cane sugar and I personally prefer the new "coke no sugar" - imo it has the same coke flavour but doesn't leave you with a coating of sugar in your mouth. Ps thankfully they never launched "new coke" here.

I am old enough to remember when Coke did this, and my family was scrambling to get original coke still on the shelves after New Coke came out. New Coke was just absolutely terrible, all of my friends and family hated it. I remember boxes of the stuff stacked in the isles of our grocery stores because no one wanted to buy it.

[@Diskoboy1974]

New Coke/Coke 2 actually lasted in certain markets until 2002. New Coke didn't really taste bad. It was actually pretty good. Coke's mistake was not leaving the original on the market, letting us have the option to buy the one we preferred. Had they done this from the get-go, New Coke/Coke 2 would probably still be around today. If you've ever read Gump & Company (the sequel to Forrest Gump), Forrest is actually the one who invented New Coke. I seem to recall one of the ingredients he used was Tabasco sauce. 😂🤣

If you drink Diet Coke, that is new Coke. Only difference was the sweetener

[@duffman18]

​@@musclesmouse yep, diet coke was never meant to taste like a sugar free version of Coca-Cola (that's what coke zero is, these days, the same coca cola formula but sweetened with sweeteners instead of sugar). Instead, diet coke was meant to taste very different to coca cola so it's not just a diet version of coke but an alternate product that wouldn't necessarily compete with coca cola. Diet coke proved so popular, that yeah New Coke was essentially just the diet coke formula, but sweetened with sugar instead of sweeteners. That's why the logo/can design of new coke looks so similar to diet coke logo/can design. Though if they had changed coca cola gradually to new coke without ever saying anything about it, people would probably never have noticed. Nobody really knows what coke tastes like. It just tastes familiar, tastes like what they remember, and that's all that matters.

Not that I hated New Coke, but when they supposedly brough back the original Coke recipe, they changed a major ingredient, being the switch from cane sugar to HFCS and even though it still tastes good the fact that most countries have banned HFCS should be very telling especially because they don't have near the problems with obesity the USA has.

Retro Pepsi or Mountain Dew. You should do a sugar vs hfcs test. FYI, new coke is Diet Coke using hfcs or sugar instead of diet sweetener.

[@cmonkey63]

The problem with those taste tests is that the participants only had a sip. Something different happens to your sense of taste if you drink a whole glass of something, compared to just a sip. And that's what the field testing of New Coke missed. If they sold it in those little coffee creamer sized containers, I guess it could have flown.

[@Bonzi_Buddy]

The reality is, New Coke tasted better than regular coke to most people in a blind taste test. The problem was that the non-blind taste test people who drank coke wanted regular coke not new coke. People who drank pepsi would probably still drink Pepsi. So it would only alienate your dedicated fanbase. We do know that while "new coke" was a failure of a product when the original coke came back the attention they drew from their alleged fiasco had the exact opposite effect making it a massive success for coca-cola. People even think they sabotaged their product for the media attention on purpose but that was almost certainly not the case....

Unbravewintermute to my surprise, it tasted the same as it did in the mid 90’s. Sweeter, not as much carbon so it was smoother than the original. I never had the true original because the New formula came out a year before I was born. Also, the original patent was running out and using High fructose corn syrup over real sugar was a cost reduction no brainer.
