Everything about Cola
Carbonated soft drink
Cola is a carbonated soft drink flavored with vanilla, cinnamon, citrus oils, and other flavorings. The name, however, comes from the kola nut, which imbues the beverage with the stimulant caffeine. A stimulating soda using kola appeared circa 1880 in the United States. Wikipedia →
