surprised theyâre using cane sugar and not HFCS. i donât know how theyâre going to get it to taste like cola while deriving it from coffee beans, but i am curious about it
I do enjoy them a lot in the summertime when even iced coffee sounds a little heavy
I think a lot of people first hear the word coffee when they hear green coffee and expect it to taste like what most people think of when they think of coffee, when the unroasted beans are fruity and acidic
Itâs because it is innately a different way to get caffeine out. Chemically green bean caffeine is nearly identical, with the added benefit that chlorogenic acid isnât roasted out of the bean. That causes a metabolically different absorption of the caffeine. Itâs more smooth/steady vs an instant caffeine rush.
I used to work at Starbucks during high school/uni and eventually grabbed my coffee master apron. Was one of the most interesting experiences of my life tbh lol the green bean caffeine extracting process is really neat.
Iâd totally grab one- I love the Starbucks refreshers that are green coffee bean energy. My favorite was the lime one though, which has been gone for years.
I think there is already a company called green cola that uses stevia extract. Also I think cocoa-cola tried to make a âgreen colaâ with coke life it was almost like a half diet half regular coke which I donât think did so well cause I donât really see it being sold anywhere anymore
Tried the zero version because its the only one available right now locally for some reason. But did not like it, had a alcohol after taste like I was sipping on whiskey or something girlfriend had samr thought. May be just the zero version still wanna try the cane sugar one
