Coca-Cola releasing new drink in February 2025

A new drink is coming out of the Coca-Cola fountain this February.

In addition to reviving its popular Lime Coke, the Coca-Cola Company is reportedly working to introduce a new type of orange flavored beverage to hit the shops in the course of 2025.

The ​new Coke Orange Cream will be filling shelves, fountains and refrigerators in most parts of the world from February 2025.

We are however not sure if the bottling plants in Tanzania or Kenya will be introducing this new variety of Coke on these shores.

Coca-Cola, as grapevine news reveal​, is also bringing back the rather beloved Lime Coke flavor which however will be on sale only in the United Kingdom and surrounding isles.

Lime Cola returns to the UK in 2025, much to the delight of soda enthusiasts.

The beverage with lemon taste went missing for over 18 years.

The citrus-infused drink was first introduced in 2005 becoming popular for two consecutive years before it suddenly disappeared from shelves and refrigerators.

Now for nearly two decades the absence of Lime Cola left fans craving its unique taste.

But now the revival of the green lime drink has already been spotted at retailers like Tesco and Farmfoods.

It comes with two varieties, including zero-sugar and full-sugar options that are currently available. However, the zero-sugar version has faced mixed reviews from some consumers.

While it’s unclear if Lime Coke will also be marketed in the United States, fans on those shores remain hopeful, however most African countries, Kenya and Tanzania included, are yet to have a taste of that.

The closest that East Africa has gotten to Lime Coke is the Krest Bitter Lemon, being produced by the Coca Cola company through its bottling firms of Kenya and Tanzania.

On the other hand the Coca-Cola Company has announced a new Orange Cream flavor drink which is launching from February 2025, continuing the brand’s trend of reimagining nostalgic favorites for modern tastes.

The Coca-Cola Orange Cream may also not make it to East Africa because the company happens to be selling the Orange flavored Fanta brand.
