Before orange-flavored Coca-Cola was first launched in 2007 (although technically Coca-Cola Light Sango was the first orange-flavored cola), The Coca-Cola Company had already been selling the Mezzo Mix beverage in Germany since the 1970s, a drink with a similar formula to Coca-Cola Orange.[1] It is available outside the Germany/Austria region on Freestyle fountains.
Regular version
Coca-Cola with Orange was originally introduced as a limited edition drink[2] in the Great Britain and Gibraltar markets in July 2007,[3] following the success of the previous year's Coca-Cola with Lime, for which 40% of the launch sales represented new customers and increased purchasing.[4] It was sold in 330ml cans, 500ml and 2 liter bottles.[4] It listed "orange fruit from concentrate (1%)" in the ingredients.[citation needed]
Afterwards the flavor became available on Freestyle fountains. There have also been unverified claims that Orange was available in Russia and the Baltics.[5] Coca-Cola Orange then went on sale as a packaged limited edition product in Japan in November 2014.[6] However one difference with the previous formulation was that the Japanese version contained no actual fruit juice.[7] The drink was then also released (as Coca-Cola Laranja) for a limited time in the first half of 2017 in Brazil as a seasonal product.[8]
Diet version
Diet Coke Orange, a no-calorie and sugarless version based on Diet Coke, is sold through Coca-Cola Freestyle machines in some countries.[citation needed]
Zero Sugar version
A no-calorie, sugarless Orange flavored cola based on Coca-Cola Zero Sugar has also been distributed as limited editions. It launched as Coca-Cola No Sugar Orange in Australia in July 2018,[9] in Thailand in July 2020,[10][11] in New Zealand in 2020,[12] and in Russia[citation needed] and Belarus in February 2021.[1]
