Coca-Cola sweetened with 100% Stevia launches in New Zealand

Coca-Cola has announced the unveiling of its flagship Coke sweetened with 100% Stevia sweetener in place of sugar in New Zealand, its chosen pilot market on 7 May 2018.

The company said the launch is evidence of its continued efforts to encourage people to consume less sugar.

Coca-Cola has been using Stevia, a plant-based sweetener that has zero calories with cane sugar in Coca-Cola Life which has 35% less calories than Classic Coke since 2013. It is now being marketed in 30 countries around the world. However, the challenge with Stevia has always been how to eliminate a bitter aftertaste which is why Coca-Cola Life is blended with sugar.

Coca-Cola has announced it will pilot a new Coca-Cola drink sweetened with Stevia instead of sugar next year.

The beverage giant made the announcement recently during its Investor Day Conference in Atlanta, Georgia, USA.

According to the company, Coca-Cola Stevia No Sugar will be 100% sweetened with Stevia, a plant-based sweetener that has zero calories and does not have an aftertaste, a problem the company has faced with previous formulations such as Diet Coke and Coca-Cola Zero.
