that looks more like lemon squash than lemonade. i think a lot of people are going to be confused it’s not fizzy

In before „crappy“ lemonade when it tastes terrible

Let me fix the title: Coca Cola to launch „healthier“ lemonade drinks.

cappy ? they missed an „R“
lime/lemon juice and some sparking water, it don’t have to be full of sugar
sad-mustache on
I so wish more non sugary drinks were made. Or at least something very mildly sweet, everything is laced with it and I can’t stand the intensity of the sweetness
AyeNoBotherOk on
All I want is a drink with however much sugar I like, I don’t care what’s healthy. If I wanted to be healthy I’d drink water.

I’m sure it’s going to be pumped with sweeteners that make it taste like trash anyway.

I’m confused – how is it healthier?
According to https://www.coca-cola.com/pk/en/brands/cappy#accordion-2e6c7628b7-item-199b1210a7, Cappy Pulpy Orange has 10.5g of sugar and 42kcal/100ml.
Coca-Cola Classic contains 10.6g of sugar and 42kcal/100ml.
Either their own website is incorrect, or the sugar content is all but the same..?

We’ve had Cappy in eastern Europe for years and tbf this lemonade is banging.
However nothing that’s sweet and without sugar can possibly be healthy. I think sugar is far more healthier than aspartame or any other artificial sweeteners. Our grandparents have eaten sugar their whole lives. They were never obese .

So it will contain only naturally occurring sugars right? Right??
DifferentTrain2113 on
They are not drinks they are chemical concoctions designed to make money.

We should be boycotting Coca Cola and a lot of other American companies like Costa etc , they structure their tax liabilities in such a way that the UK loses out big time .
Why should we buy products that want to fiddle us , even if it is legal on paper it’s very unfair and we should vote to avoid through our pocket .
Who the hell is Loa and why does she want to end me?!
I’m scared.

Remember, the same regulators and peer reviewed papers showing sweeteners to have no negative effects and are completely safe, are the same people/institutions that claimed Diesels were cleaner than petrol, that Asbestos was safe, that Light cigarettes were better, BPA free plastics were better, trans fat spreads, leaded petrol etc.
Turns out diesels pollute way more, asbestos is just invisible fibres of death, light cigarettes are just as cancerous, BPA free plastics such as BPS or BPF ended up worse, and affected the endocrine system more than BPA, trans fat spreads are now banned and proven to cause heart disease.
It’s not that I am contrarian or conspiracy theorying everything, and plenty of studies do hold water decades later, but let’s be frank, many „safe“ products turn out to not be safe. Also, most of the time, it wasn’t just a „how were we supposed to know“ but was deliberate hiding of data or repivoting certain data to look a certain way. They knew, absolutely.
When I eat or drink anything with sweeteners, I bloat, I get severe Liver pain, my bowels become wrecked, and I feel haggard. This isn’t even placebo effect as there have been times I have eaten something I thought didn’t have it, got the symptoms, and checked again to find some new sweetener I hadn’t heard of, or they coded it rather than full name.

So they are just going to make lemonade with lots of artificial sweeteners, and most likely the cheapest ones…there is a growing amount of studies that point to potential issues with a number of those sweetners

I know the UK at large doesn’t have the palate for it but I’d love them to sell sugar-free oolong tea here like in Japan.
Dramatic_Guidance_21 on
Let’s hope it’s better than that Dasani „cancer‘ water they tried poisoning us with 20 years ago
jtrimm98 on
We need to stop buying awful American products. Buy local, stop buying crap
Business_Ad_9799 on
Coca Cola and the term “healthy “ should never be in the same sentence
sillysimon92 on
We’ve been down this path before, absolutely everything for years went for „low fat“
Essentially they were using cheaper highly processed sugar alternatives to natural fats and as we know now much worse for us long term.
Now I go for things with as full fat, natural sugars as possible and also just try not to have as much of them.
SmashedWorm64 on
The only drink that is healthy is water, and Tea by extension. Saying it is “healthier” is doing a lot of heavy lifting.

I’m sensing a „Desani“ situation
for those unaware, coke essentially took tap water and advertised it as high end. they got found out and had to withdraw it.
Relative-Chain73 on
Let’s boycott more.
Buy a reusable bottle, buy limes and lemons whatever you like, add sugar, add sparkling water if you have. Make it yourself. (Sometimes kids are so adamant that they want just that mass manufactured bullcrap, in that case use your judgement)
Zerosix_K on
Well after the Dasani debacle. I can see this going well!!!

like the Schweppes they bought out and made disappear?

These drinks are not “sugary” they are “aspartamemey”.

As a type one diabetic who doesn’t like cola, I’m all for this.

Healthier than the bottled water they tried to sell from a tap in Kent?
Realistic-Tip-5416 on
Innocent drinks is owned by Coca-Cola, so they already do this somewhat.

Why is “to launch” in quotation marks but “healthier” isn’t?
Sufficient-Cold-9496 on
The brand name sounds incredibly close to the word Crappy
BlackStarDream on
Healthier = We put enough aspartame in it to give a purebred racehorse cardiac arrhythmia.

Ahh look, another product from an asshole company I’ll purposely avoid.

Missed a trick not having a horse on the bottle
*Well, I better not show you where the lemonade is made..*
Health*ier* is such a dangerous term. Healthier than what?
As an extreme example, drinking only sugary drinks is healthier than drinking only literal poison.
Just sell L&P around the world.

I’d rather have this lemonade instead https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/321215325 Just three ingredients and none of that sweetener rubbish in the C(r)appy equivalent https://bevasarlas.tesco.hu/groceries/hu-HU/products/2004121253985
