Flavored sodas tend to stay within a pretty narrow scope: Vanilla and cherry are regular contenders. Lime is thrown in there fairly often. But this year, Coca-Cola has been stepping out of the box with new variations.
In January, Coca-Cola added a few surprising Diet Coke flavors to the mix, including Twisted Mango and Blood Orange. The next month, Coke dropped Georgia Peach and California Raspberry drinks. Now, they're picking up where Pepsi left off with a Cinnamon-flavored version of Coke Zero.
ICYMI, let's take it back to the summer of 2017, when Pepsi announced a limited-edition drink called Pepsi Fire. Their soda was cinnamon flavored as well, and people had mixed reactions, to put it mildly.
Some were obsessed with the flavor, while others were decidedly not into it. While the drink is no longer in stores, Coca-Cola U.K. is picking up the slack—and offering a zero-sugar version.
Per a press release, the new, limited-edition Coke Zero was "launched in response to the general public’s love of the flavor. The new addition to the Coca-Cola family is bursting full of warming flavors and is guaranteed to get you into the festive spirit as we head into the Christmas season."
Unfortunately, unlike Pepsi Fire, Coca-Cola's drink is only available in the U.K. for now. Per a spokesperson for Coca-Cola U.S., there are no plans to bring Coke Zero Cinnamon flavor to the U.S. at this time. So, we'll have to rely on our friends across the pond to let us know how it tastes. If you do drink it, let us know!
