  1. Those formulas are all secret.

    Pepsi got its name from the pepsin that was in it.

    Coca Cola got its name from the coca leaf in it.

    Dr. Pepper was named after a doctor in town.

    They all started as medicines


  2. coca cola has coca leaves (where cocaine is from) and cola nuts in it

    and as for pepsi... well pepsi sucks wether it has them or not

  3. Personally I stay away from any drink with "natral sweatners" 0.o

    You got me curious, though and there is a collection on cola info on this page http://www.answers.com/topic/cola-1

    I find conflicting info on here.  One says (from Sci-Tech Encyclopedia): Cola....."Cola nuts, in combination with an extract from coca, are used in the manufacture of the beverage Coca-Cola".....

    but scroll down and you'll find from Wikipedia ....."To be considered a cola, a soft-drink must have a similar taste to the original cola- Pemberton's French Wine Coca (created by the man who would later invent Coca-Cola)- which derived its flavor from the Kola nut. The flavor of individual colas are usually kept a secret, with the Coca-Cola recipe stored in a closely guarded safe. The main ingredients in a cola's flavor base generally comes from a mixture of citrus flavorings such as orange, lime and lemon and spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla. The name comes from the kola nuts that were originally used in early soft drinks as the source of caffeine."

    So, it seems like everything else, put the cheapest ingredients in and maximize your profits. :( Yeah I feel cheated.

    Oh and this is strange: "Though there may be some conjecture on the subject, Dr. Pepper is not a cola brand as it contains prune juice extract or artificial prune juice flavoring"  all these years I've been trying to figure out its flavor XD...never would have thought....
