The real reason McDonald’s Coca-Cola tastes so good
Fast food giant McDonalds revealed what makes their Coca-Cola drinks so delicious after an immeasurable amount of speculation from their legions of fans.
Its a well-known opinion Coke at McDonalds is far superior to the kind found in bottles and cans. If you can get past the paper straws (#savetheturtles), there is nothing better than chugging down the ice-cold beverage after a share box of nuggets.�
The speculation is alive and well
For decades, McDonalds has dominated the fast food game for a variety of reasons. One such reason is Coca-Cola, which foodies crave and dieticians hate.
On Twitter, now called X, one person gushed: Its a McDonalds coke kinda day.
You cant convince me McDonalds doesnt have the best coke, another wrote, while a third added, This McDonalds coke is extra crispy, and its HITTING.
Someone else admitted: The way a Large McDonalds Diet Coke can reset my whole being.
Whats the McDonalds secret?
Fans of the restaurant desperately want to know why it was so good. Is it witchcraft? A secret ingredient, perhaps? So, following the public outcry, McDonalds issued a statement explaining the reason in 2021.�
There are many reasons the Coca-Cola� tastes so great at McDonalds. We simply follow the guidelines set by Coca-Cola� and take steps to ensure that we serve a high-quality fountain beverage, it read.
The statement continued: The water and Coca-Cola� syrup are pre-chilled before entering our fountain dispensers with the ratio of syrup set to allow for ice to melt. We also keep our fountain beverage system cold, so your drink is always refreshing.
In order to ensure our drinks are always meeting a gold standard, we filter all the water before it enters fountain dispensers.”
Interestingly, the brand also argued that their straws are slightly wider than a typical straw so all that Coke� taste can hit your taste buds.
