Coca-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.
- Following Trump’s Truth Social announcement, the Trump administration’s Make America Healthy Again initiative has pushed food companies to alter formulations.
- Sourced from Texas, Florida and Louisiana, the new version is colloquially known as `Mexican Coke`, Coca-Cola said.
- Despite identical calories, some scientists say sugar offers nutritional benefits over high fructose corn, while both sweeteners equally raise health risks.
- 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.
