YouTuber Claims to Have Cracked the Coca-Cola Secret Formula

A YouTuber, known as LabCoatz, claims to have successfully replicated the secret Coca-Cola formula with impressive accuracy, using reverse engineering techniques and mass spectrometry. The analysis revealed that over 99% of the beverage consists of sugar, while the remaining 1% includes a blend of essential oils and chemical compounds, such as alpha-terpinene, limonene, cinnamaldehyde, and tannins. The YouTuber discovered that adding wine tannins was key to reproducing the distinctive Coca-Cola taste. The Coca-Cola Company has kept its formula secret for 139 years, storing it in a special vault.
