US EditionCoca-Cola to Roll Out US Cane Sugar Coke This Fall
UNITED STATES, JUL 22 – Coca-Cola will offer a cane sugar-sweetened version alongside the original, responding to consumer demand and President Trump's push for "purer, better products," CEO James Quincey said.
- On Tuesday, July 22, 2025, The Coca-Cola Company announced a signature cane sugar version of its Trademark Coca-Cola line, launching this fall in the United States.

- Future supply dynamics may shift as the Corn Refiners Association CEO said replacing high fructose corn syrup with cane sugar doesn’t make sense, given Trump’s support of American farmers.
