When it comes to The Coca-Cola Company, the first thing that probably comes to mind is the classic red can of Coke. But in reality, their beverage range is far more extensive than you might imagine. Many drinks you regularly consume, which seem completely unrelated to Coca-Cola, are actually under their umbrella.

Let me give you a few examples. See how many you've tried:

  1. Other Sodas:

    • Sprite: This one is very familiar, the lemon-lime clear soda, definitely Coca-Cola's second-in-command.
    • Fanta: Orange-flavored Fanta is a classic, and they've since released various fruit flavors, also one of theirs.
  2. Juices:

    • Minute Maid: One of the most common juice brands in supermarkets, especially their "Fruit Pulp Orange" (果粒橙), which many people love, right? That's right, it's also from Coca-Cola.
  3. Bottled Water:

    • Ice Dew and C'estbon: These two bottled water brands are very common and affordably priced. They are also products of The Coca-Cola Company.
  4. Tea and Coffee:

    • Authentic Tea House (淳茶舍): If you enjoy sugar-free or low-sugar tea beverages, you might have tried this brand; it's also under Coca-Cola.
    • Costa Coffee: Surprising, isn't it? The famous British coffee chain, Costa, was later acquired by The Coca-Cola Company. So, the bottled Costa coffee you buy in supermarkets is also their product.
  5. Sports/Functional Drinks:

    • Powerade: A sports drink you might see at athletic events, used to replenish electrolytes. This is Coca-Cola's offering to compete with Pepsi's Gatorade.

So, as you can see, The Coca-Cola Company is far more than just selling Coke; it has permeated every aspect of our daily beverage consumption. Next time you're at the supermarket, pay attention to the company listed on the beverage bottles – you might discover something new.
