Coca-Cola Life Review

Coca-Cola Life brings the fabulousness of true sugar with the grossness of Stevia, an all-natural diet sweetener more infamous for its bitterness than famous for its sugariness. But let us keep an unbiased mind and treat our eyes to the Pakistan green label, branded with uninteresting font chosen for elegance. Too many words are packed onto the tiny real-estate of the moss colored packaging.

A potent effervescence wakes up your palate, an unanticipated punch that is too sparkling for the drink's delicate insubstantialness. Life itself is considerably more intricate than this suggests, a tenuous body with insignificant innuendos of spices, only the dubious debuts of some canceled cinnamon and nullified nutmeg. The feisty carbonation demands more byzantine piquancy than the unsatisfying seltzer we sit sipping, instead left for dead with the deadened flavors of orange and vanilla. It is an unenthusiastic braiding, tastes holding hands but without motivation. With Coke using organic sweeteners, neither the citrus nor the vanilla are as complex as they should be. The bottle reads "natural flavors," but my tongue is not tasting them. All trepidation from Stevia's usual iniquity should be abated: every sip is painless and almost like its full-calorie cousin. It is not the obvious ersatz elixir expected when the argentate cap cracked open, but lacks the weight of a true sugared soda. It does not disappoint, but fails to ever wow.

Each bottle contains: water, forty grams of sugar, color, flavors, phosphoric acid, potassium benzoate, forty seven milligrams of caffeine, and Stevia. It hits almost a sweet spot between full and zero calories with its 160 per twenty ounces, but other than the natural sweetener its ingredient cocktail is pedestrian. As is everything else about.
