New Zealand's Got It Made

While I will admit the new Coke/Diet Coke with Lime commercial is remarkably catchy (who wouldn't love the punny masterpiece of "Put the Lime in the Coke you nut!"), I still am not sold on the flavor. Not that it's a bad product, I just don't particularly enjoy it.

But THIS is a flavor I wish we had in the states...

[below is an excerpt from
www.just-drinks.com]

"Coca-Cola is to launch a new flavour in New Zealand later this month. The drinks company has announced that Coca-Cola Raspberry will hit retail outlets in the country on 30 May. A sugar free version – Diet Coke with Raspberry – will launch at the same time.

Speaking to local Web site Scoop, Alison Sykora, region corporate affairs manager for Coca-Cola Oceania in New Zealand, said that New Zealand had been picked as the test-market for Coke Raspberry because not only were New Zealanders proven early adopters of new experiences, but they had been asking for Coca-Cola Raspberry for quite some time.

Coca-Cola Raspberry and Diet Coke with Raspberry will only be available for a limited time. "
