Vanilla Coke back in Britain after six-year absence

Coca-Cola Enterprises CEO John Brock says that GSK’s decision to start a strategic review of Ribena and Lucozade is an ‘interesting development’, while the firm plans to relaunch Vanilla Coke in Great Britain this year.

I love Vanilla Coke in Malibu, I buy it and Strawberry Fanta from CyberCandy so it will be good to pay half price for the same thing soon.

Oh... I didn't really like it when I was younger, but I was the same with eggs, so...

Is the Coke/Lemon one still available? I know the diet-coke/lime and diet-coke/cherry ones were for a while (if they aren't still now).

Wasn't aware of its discontinuation until now. Always remember it tasting nice, though. Good news.

Nah, they cancelled that in early 2006. They got rid of the diet equivalent so I think they decided to scrap the whole thing altogether.

diet-coke/lime was available for a short trial in the summer of 2005. The cherry one's still around over here now, I think.

It's a shame they didn't keep them a bit longer here. They're a million times better than all these watered down equivalents.

Has anyone found any yet? :amazed:

Redway
25-02-2013, 10:02 PM
It was announced that people will be able to purchase them from today, so I imagine a fair few have.

Think I saw an advert or something for it they other day actually. :suspect:

Sarah.
25-02-2013, 10:03 PM
Advert where?
I've looked in loads of shops today and couldn't find any, so was just wondering if anyone had found any and where. :(

Redway
25-02-2013, 10:08 PM
That's odd. :conf2:

I haven't actually bothered to find any yet, but I'd have thought they'd be where plain varieties of coke are bought.

Glenn.
25-02-2013, 10:13 PM
Are they on sale now then? :suspect:

Redway
25-02-2013, 10:20 PM
idk but I do remember reading it somewhere. Maybe it was week commencing, rather than the actual day.

If it doesn't appear on sale any time this week it should be early into March though.

Sarah.
26-02-2013, 01:16 PM
Yeah I've seen a few people on Twitter say that they have found it in shops already, but I cannot find it at all. :( Not fair :(

may try it this time

Morrisons are selling it from the weekend

Not sure if there is one of those around here though

Redway
26-02-2013, 06:01 PM
Sounds good. I'll probably go down to Morrisons in Belle Vale over the weekend and see if it's there.

Harry!
27-02-2013, 07:51 PM
I so can't wait to buy my bottle/can! I think supermarkets such as Tesco and Waitrose are selling it nationwide from March.

Locke.

I will not be best pleased if I don't come across it on my travels today

Glenn.

Glenn you can buy it on the continent you dummy.

In fact, I bet you could buy it on Amazon. They sell have a food section, and they have all the obscure stuff in there.

Glenn.
04-03-2013, 03:31 PM
But you have to pay a fortune for it. The shop I got this one from had it from America for £1.50 a can and our one for 59p

I'm not made of money Niall :idc:

Meh there's a shop near me that sells it along with a whole host of other foreign sweets (like special pop tarts, lucky charms, all that stuff). It's amazing. :love:

I've had two cans if it and its really sickly.

Will stock up for the occasional tipple though

I have yet to find Vanilla Coke in a supermarket, which I have checked at least one of the four main ones. I know there is the American sweet shop but that is expensive. And shopping online can be pricey. I want to buy it in a main shop like old times!

Sarah.
04-03-2013, 08:49 PM
I've been in so many shops and I haven't found any.

They sell it for £1.50 a can in town where I live

Finally found it. It's not as good as the US version.
