Coca Cola


One of the things who changed the world is Coca-Col .Coca-Cola was invented in May 1886 by Doctor John Perberton.
Coca Cola changed the world because for people in that time people drink only water, orange and tea.
Coca Cola was best to drink in that time. Being a bookkeeper, Frank Robinson also had excellent penmanship. It was he who first scripted coca cola into the flowing letters which has become the famous logo of today.
The soft drink was first sold to the public at the soda fountain in Jacob's Pharmacy in Atlanta on May 8, 1886.
About nine servings of the soft drink were sold each day. Sales for that first year added up to a total of about $50. The funny thing was that it cost John Pemberton over $70 in expanses, so the first year of sales were a loss.
Until 1905, the soft drink, marketed as a tonic, contained extracts of cocaine as well as the caffeine-rich kola nut.
