A pharmacist, John Pemberton, invented Coca-Cola in 1886. It was a derivative of the alcoholic beverage Vin Mariani. Pemberton developed his cola, which he called Pemberton’s French Wine Coca. When alcohol was banned in the state of Atlanta in 1886, where John Pemberton lived, he put sugar syrup in his drink instead of wine and called it Coca-Cola.
You had to dilute it with water, and the beverage was sold in jugs. Later on, the sugary syrup was mixed with carbonated water and this is how the soda, as we know it today, originated.
The number of brilliant uses of the soda does not stop. It can really be a household help, and save you a lot of money.
