Orange Cream: Is the new Coca-Cola flavour coming to us?
Coca-Cola has launched a new flavour with Orange Cream. For the time being, only the USA and Canada will be able to enjoy the new cola flavour. There it is intended to awaken childhood memories and generate sales.
But when it comes to new sweet drinks, I'm obviously resistant to learning. Because ever since Coca-Cola announced a new flavour - Orange Cream - I can hardly wait until I can try it. And nothing and no one will be able to stop me.
Orange C.R.E.A.M.
As the advert with the ice cream van and a 90s song by Mariah Carey suggests, Coca-Cola Orange Cream is riding the nostalgia wave. Its flavour is intended to evoke childhood memories of the Orange Creamsicle - a kind of orange-flavoured stick ice cream.
New attempt after the "Spiced debacle"
When and if the new Coke flavour will be officially launched in Europe and Switzerland is questionable. The media office of Coca-Cola Austria & Switzerland wrote on enquiry:
"Unfortunately, it currently looks like Coca-Cola Orange Cream will only be available in the USA and Canada for the foreseeable future.""
Coca-Cola Spiced was also only sold in North America. Nevertheless, I was able to try it in this country (it was ... mediocre). Sooner or later, Orange Cream will also somehow make the leap across the pond. My taste buds are already looking forward to and dreading it.
But there are other tastings to come first. A Dr Pepper Creamy Coconut is currently waiting in the fridge for my verdict. I like Dr Pepper and coconut. What could possibly go wrong?

I'm a full-blooded dad and husband, part-time nerd and chicken farmer, cat tamer and animal lover. I would like to know everything and yet I know nothing. I know even less, but I learn something new every day. What I am good at is dealing with words, spoken and written. And I get to prove that here.
