Is Coca-Cola originally green? Was the earliest Coca-Cola green?

Coca-Cola is not dyed, so that the drinks in the bottle look different. Coca-Cola has never been green, and its color has never changed. The original formula of this carbonated drink contains caramel, so the iced coke people see is dark black and brown.

In the past, this kind of drink was packed in green glass bottles, which may cause some people's misunderstanding. This may be the source of this misunderstanding. Coca-Cola has never changed color since 1886 was born.

(1) In order to have a deep and mysterious reddish-brown appearance, a food pigment called caramel color is added to cola. The dark brown caramel color makes coke "black and beautiful".

(2) Caramel color is closely related to sugar. The traditional method of making caramel color is very simple: the white sugar or maltose in a container is boiled at high temperature, and the melted syrup will continue to undergo a chemical reaction called caramelization, and the color will gradually darken until it becomes caramel. Caramel reaction has a long history of making pigments, and caramel color is also one of the most commonly used food pigments in modern times.
