Gusto Organic Real Cherry Cola 275ml

The first organic cherry cola in Europe, free from phosphoric acid and e-numbers, packed with real organic cherries, lower in calories than regular cola.

Gusto Organic Real Cherry Cola is a flavour that resonates with soft drinks fans across the ages. It's a naughty secret – an indulgent delight. When Gusto were thinking about the drinks they most enjoy, cherry cola was right up at the top of the list.

Then Gusto started to look around at the competition. Was there really an organic cherry cola (or, indeed, any form of cherry cola) that ticked their boxes and pressed those flavour buttons that reside deep in their memories?

In short, the answer was no. The leading cherry colas in Europe were not the stuff of Gusto's dreams. As with so many soft drinks, they were packed with refined sugar, or for the zero-calorie obsessed, they were humming with artificial sweeteners. There was nothing really organic available at all. Naturally, that got Gusto thinking…

Looking a little closer at most cherry colas, Gusto found that there rarely seems to be much cherry juice involved. Neither could they really see where the caffeine comes from, and – to top it all – the festivals of E-numbers were loaded with phosphoric acid (or E338, as it is less charmingly known). Gusto are not big fans of phosphoric acid and firmly believe it has no place in their food and drink. Why blend a drink with a chemical rust remover that's used to make artificial fertilizers? It's beyond them.

So, it was with this challenge that Gusto devised their very own Gusto Organic Real Cherry Cola, a wonderful sharp, sweet blast of organic cherry juice perfectly balanced with organic Madagascan vanilla. In place of E338 Gusto bring in that distinct bite with organic Sicilian lemon juice. Gusto sweeten with that most luxurious of sweeteners, organic blue agave from Jalisco in Mexico – a warm, sweet nectar that brings its own unique flavour.

To this blend of fruit, spices and organic essential oils Gusto add kola nut from the rainforests of Africa, a sublime and ceremonial ingredient that offers mild caffeine stimulation through theobromine – literally translated as 'The Food of the Gods'. No synthetic caffeine here, just kola nut to bring those memories flooding back, and a gentle lift to an organic cherry cola like no other. So, welcome to the world Gusto Organic Real Cherry Cola – unique, and (Gusto think) indulgent and tantalising beauty to consume.
