For the first time in over a decade, Coca-Cola has added a new flavor to it's US lineup of colas: Orange Vanilla Coke. While Canadians had a sneak preview of the new drink last summer, this will be the first time in more than 10 years that Coca-Cola has debuted a new Coke flavor in the US.
Orange Vanilla Coke is a dreamy new soda that is set to hit store shelves on February 25th. The new flavor is designed to taste just like a creamsicle with bright notes of citrus and the creamy taste of vanilla. There will also be an Orange Vanilla Coke Zero Sugar version available for those who want to cut out the sugar.
Beyond your local grocery store, the new flavor will also be available at Wendy’s US locations in the Coca-Cola Freestyle fountain drink dispensers until the end of the NCAA March Madness tournament. After the basketball tournament ends, the drink will be rolled out nationally across all Freestyle units.
