Salam everyone.
All there drinks like dr pepper do they have alcohol? I went on some site that tells u wot is haraam and Wots halal but it didn't really have answer. I don't really bothered bout cola but I mainly drink dr pepper is it safe to drink or not? I'm totally confused. Thanx.
I don't drink any cokes, mostly because they are all unhealthy(the diet ones are unhealthy too). So many calories, so much sugar and caffeine. I stay away from it...I drink water, milk and orange juice.
hmm i drink coke buh not tht much i like sprite or 7 up buh m planning to stop n switch to fresh juices i love orange juice )
Allah made everyone different thats what makes them special,so no matter what ppl say just remember you're SPECIAL!! "You are with the one you love"

Coca-Cola's top secret recipe has allegedly been revealed

A website claims to have uncovered Coca-Cola's top secret recipe.
The ingredients of the drink, created by John Pemberton, a medicinal pharmacist in 1886, have always been a mystery.
However, Thisamericanlife.org claims to have discovered a list in a photograph in a newspaper article giving the ingredients and exact quantities to make the drink.
The Feb 8 1979 edition of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution has a photo of someone holding open a book with a recipe claimed to be an exact replica of Pemberton's.
The recipe reportedly contains the exact measures of all the different oils needed for Coca Cola's secret ingredient, Merchandise 7X.
Despite making up only one per cent of the drink's total formula, Merchandise 7X is thought to give the popular soft drink its unique taste.
The official recipe is said to be guarded 24-hours a day in a vault in Atlanta, Georgia.
The 'secret recipe'
Fluid extract of Coca 3 drams USP
Citric acid 3 oz
Caffeine 1oz
Sugar 30 (it is unclear from the markings what quantity is required)
Water 2.5 gal
Lime juice 2 pints 1 qrt
Vanilla 1oz
Caramel 1.5oz or more to colour
7X flavour (use 2oz of flavour to 5 gals syrup):
Alcohol 8oz
Orange oil 20 drops
Lemon oil 30 drops
Nutmeg oil 10 drops
Coriander 5 drops
Neroli 10 drops
Cinnamon 10 drops

So I don't think is safe to drink coke, but is de peppper the same company as coke? Or pepsi?
I buy Evoca Cola... and think it tastes better than the "REAL THING".
Evoca Cola is made with black seed extract (nigella sativa) and this is actually remarkably good for you.

I wonder if that is available in U.S. I have never seen that here.

I don't think it is available in the USA to be honest. We get it here in the UK, and a lot of halal restaurants stock it too... The company that makes this drink is only a few miles down the road from me, in Walthamstow East London.
I wonder if a quick search on google may be able to find cocal cola alternatives in the USA? I doubt it though, coz Coca Cola company tries to buy out all of its competition in order to maintain its monopoly on the market (they can't break Pepsi, though they've tried)... in Europe, it's more of an oligopoly though... same as in other continents. Still, it's the most popular beverage in the world today...
There's nothing positive or healthy about drinking soda. Useless calories. Garbage.
....not to mention it tastes like malted battery acid.
I gotta have my battery acid, though. I tried to quit drinking soda last year (for Ramadan). I got really bad headaches from caffeine withdrawal. I lasted about a week and then I broke down.
This website also contains statements about dozens of rumours.
We stand by our list below, but we can't take any email on this issue, due to the sheer volume.* Please contact Coca Cola DIrect for a statement if you require.
Coca Cola Statement:
"
None of the products of Coca-Cola Great Britain contain ingredients derived from mammals. *As some practicing vegetarians avoid fish products as well, it is important to note that some of our products contain minute traces of fish gelatine, which is used as a stabiliser for the beta-carotene colour. These products have been clearly labelled on the attached list.
Soft drinks products of The Coca-Cola Company are officially recognised as non-alcoholic beverages. *However, 'Schweppes' Lemonade Shandy is an alcohol containing beverage and thus is appropriately labelled. * The ingredients and manufacturing process used in the production of 'Coca-Cola' are rigorously regulated by government and health authorities in more than 200 countries which have consistently recognised the beverage as a non-alocoholic product. *This includes countries where Islam is the major religion."

Pepsi= same crap, but other company, everything what can remove rust is bad, you are basically drinking chemicals. Stay with water or milk, thats it. You need to make some sacrifice Only what you do with soda is poisoning your own body, also its bad for your teeth.

Try tea. It's healthier anyway. I reduced my soda intake when I started drinking tea. Rasberry iced tea at restaurants is a good way to start. Then I started mixing in plain iced tea and now can drink plain iced tea as well as homemade flavored green tea (like Jasmine green tea).
The man who invented coke originally put cocaine in it. He was a drug addict and died from a morphine(I think) overdose. Coke having alcohol is mostly a rumor as of now since people have done test after test and YES they have included ethanol analysis. For 125 years this wouldnt be new but yet it is. Coke is as alcoholic as elephants are pink, and I have never heard of a pink elephant. So I seriously doubt this claim and Coke is still one of my most hated drinks. Real men drink Dr Pepper, A&W and Barq's root-beer!
