Base Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Syrup

    In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar and 2 cups of water. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has completely dissolved. This will create a simple syrup.

  2. 2

    Add Flavorings

    Once the sugar is dissolved, remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in caramel color, caffeine, phosphoric acid, natural flavors, and citric acid. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.

  3. 3

    Cool the Syrup

    Allow the syrup mixture to cool to room temperature before using it to make the beverage.

  4. 4

    Combine with Carbonated Water

    In a large pitcher, combine the cooled syrup with 4 cups of carbonated water. Stir gently to mix, being careful not to lose too much carbonation.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Pour the Coca Cola into glasses over ice if desired. Enjoy your homemade Coca Cola!
