Vanilla Coke

segadreamcast · 30-08-2003 10:34pm

Found it in a local shop around the corner from me e1.10... which is the same as a normal bottle of coke. Produced here too, so it must be rolling out to most shops. Hurrah --_--.

Also spotted in this cool little cafe opposite central bank. They sell all sorts of imported drinks (Mountain Dew, Pepsi Blue, Vanilla Coke et al) - be warned though, they are pricey.

I'm fooking obsessed. It isn't even funny.

and it was godawful

hey but I'm one of those people who was turned off Coke when they changed the formula and brought out Cherry Cola.

( why did they pull the worlds biggest selling soft drink off the market ? )

Coke are still not making this available to shops.
It can be bought in Musgraves however. It's likely the Musgraves' here got it from the Musgraves in Belfast.
Afaik it should retail at the same price as normal coke.

On a side not I had some of that Pepsi Blue stuff. Horrible. But Mountain Dew is lovely.

i tried some pepsi vanilla the other day - not as nice as vanilla coke, and i usually prefer pepsi to coke

There's Vanilla Pepsi now too?
When was this released?

Got vanilla coke for the first time today, in O'Donnell's Supermarket in Buncrana. Was quite nice. They only have 250ml cans though, and they come out from the six counties. €0.45 each, so 500ml is 90c.

Yeah, agree on your comments of the drinks there - but anyway... the VC is being bottled in Naas... why would they ship it to Musgraves Belfast, then send it back here? Seems silly.

Coca Cola is bottled in Lambeg, Co. Antrim by the Coca-Cola Bottlers (Ulster) Ltd. and has been for as long as I can remember. Certainly the first cans of VC I got in Buncrana (Donegal) were from the Lambeg plant, though for some reason now, they've only got stuff from England now.

For those who want this (or something simliar), but can't find it, Iceland seems to be now selling Vanilla Virgin Cola.

Caesar_Bojangle · 18-09-2003 9:41pm

Is it still on sale? I've never actually seen it anywhere, but that rotten diet lemon coke is everywhere

Shinji · 18-09-2003 9:47pm

Vanilla coke seems to be being sold very widely in the UK still - apparently it's been pretty successful. Which is good, cos it rocks

CombatCow · 18-09-2003 9:59pm

You can get cans of cherry coke and VC in the news agents under the temple bar arch ( across the ha'penny bridge ) o and mt dew.

Maybe that's because you live in Donegal... here in Dublin, the cans we buy are bottled in Naas, generally speaking...

Tusky · 20-09-2003 9:31pm

hmmm - somone should get a list together of everywhere you can buy it, can you get 500ml anywhere in blanch centre ? I love the stuff but so far have only had the small cans and paid 1:20 for them !!!! worth it though

No, we mostly get the stuff from Naas too. Just sometimes it's sourced from the North, so Musgraves may be doing the same, so they wouldn't be sending it from Naas to Belfast and back down.

O'Donnell's in Buncrana were doing the small (250ml) cans for 45c, and then they did the ordinary cans for 60 or 65c. They seem to have run out now. Knew I shoulda stocked up.

Vanilla coke is biggest FAD 'EVER', and yiz r all knackers who like it cos it's down right manky.

what's wrong wit coke they have to add cherry and vanilla???

Some marketing b*****ds, lookin for rise by 'REVAMPING' their product. God I hate these c***s!!!

Mr. Fancypants · 24-09-2003 5:50pm

You can get Vanilla Coke and all sorts of other stuff in Murphys on Baggot st. Vile tasting tho'. Tastes like a belch.

Roller Toaster · 27-09-2003 11:55am

There was some at an Indian food store I was at last night. The bottles were definitely Irish since the support number was for here. I'm here to support Vanilla Coke, tastes like liquid sunshine.

embee · 29-09-2003 2:59am

You can get VC in Viart Wavecrest Newsagents in Sunny Bayside.
Its feckin LUSH.

Also.... those 7 special edition Magnums...... How lovely were they?

Only ice cream I ate during the summer....
