The Real Thing; Coca-Cola Rival Will Include Cocaine Ingredient
`A group of Indians in southern Colombia have created a new soft drink made from coca leaf extract and plan to market their product as an alternative to Coca-Cola.
Coca Sek, a golden, carbonated drink, will go on sale this week in parts of Colombia. But its makers expect they won’t be able to export to the United States due to rules blocking the entry of coca, the main ingredient in cocaine.
The soda looks like apple cider, has a tea-like fragrance and a flavor somewhere between Seven-Up and ginger ale.’
