最近可口可樂公司宣布將在日本市場推出新款酒精飲料,但是你不知道的是可口可樂曾經(jīng)推出過多種奇怪的可樂,而這些可樂你可能都未聽過。
The Coca-Cola Company announced it’ll be adding a new alcoholic beverage to its portfolio exclusively in the Japanese market. The low-alcohol drink, or Chu-Hi, will be a watered-down mixture of the shōchū spirit plus flavoring. This isn’t the first time Coca-Cola has experimented with flavors and tastes, especially in Japan.
可口可樂公司(Coca-Cola Company)宣布將在日本市場推出新款酒精飲料。這種低酒精飲品,或者叫Chu-Hi,就是給酒精含量較低的燒酒加上各種口味。這不是可口可樂第一次嘗試新口味,尤其是在日本市場。
Not all flavors are successful, but the unique flavors deserve a round of applause. Below are five other unusual Coca-Cola products that were released.
新口味不見得都能大獲成功,不過開發(fā)獨特口味的嘗試值得贊揚。下面是其他五種不同尋常的可口可樂產(chǎn)品。
Beverly
苦味可樂
Introduced in 1969, Beverly was an Italian apertif. Designed to be consumed before meals and believed to aid digestion, competitors like Campari and San Pellegrino led to its discontinuation in 2009.
1969年,可口可樂在意大利推出苦味可樂,作為開胃飲料使用。設計這款產(chǎn)品的初衷是在餐前飲用,促進消化,不過由于不敵競爭對手金巴利苦酒(Campari)和圣培露礦泉水(San Pellegrino),苦味可樂在2009年停產(chǎn)。
New Coke
新可口可樂
In 1985, the 99-year-old company decided it was scrapping its classic Coke recipe for a newer and sweeter version to compete with Pepsi.In blind taste tests, people generally preferred the new recipe compared to the old. But three months after making the switch, the company announced the return of the classic Coca-Cola.
1985年,這家有著99年歷史的公司決定放棄傳統(tǒng)的可口可樂配方,推出一款更新更甜的產(chǎn)品,以期與百事可樂(Pepsi)競爭。味覺盲測表明,與舊配方相比,人們普遍更喜歡新的可樂配方。然而,在決定更換配方的三個月后,公司宣布經(jīng)典的可口可樂重回市場。
OK Soda:
OK汽水
This product was launched to capture the Generation X market in 1993.

It’s slogan was “Things are going to be ok” and it even had its own manifesto. It was discontinued in 1995.
1993年,可口可樂推出這款產(chǎn)品,希望攻占“X一代”消費者的市場。廣告宣傳中,OK汽水包裝上印著神情冷酷的頭像,與“X一代”憤世嫉俗、不抱幻想的思想和狀態(tài)呼應。它的口號是“一切都會OK”,還有自己的宣言。1995年,OK汽水停產(chǎn)。
Coca-Cola Blak:
咖啡可樂
Coffee in soda? Coca-Cola developed this recipe for two years and finally released the carbonated coffee drink in 2006. It hoped it would tap into the premium coffee markets, but just one year later Blak was discontinued.
