Ok, let's settle this for good. Does balsamic vinegar + flavored sparkling water taste like Coke? AND if looks like Coke, does it taste like Coke?

I really appreciate Emmy's healthy relationship with food. She never goes out of her way to say a food is unhealthy but clarifing that in excess the food can be bad for you thus never inadvertently shaming the people who enjoys the foods. Presenting the food or drink as something neutral, that is OK to like or dislike using our own discretion. It absolutely is something to be admired. This coming from someone who was raised as if food was something to be feared. Thank you Emmy!

@loriki8766 2 года назад

I used to drink coke and sodas all the time. Took me 10 years to break the habit but I had to for my health. On a hot summer day after a couple of years of not having any, I picked up an ice cold can of coke, popped it open, listened to the fizziness to with a smile, and took a big swig. Tasted like battery acid. I almost couldn't keep it in my mouth long enough to get to the sink. Never had the urge to drink it since. BUT that may be why people who don't drink it anymore can't remember what it tastes like. When you don't drink it for a long time your tastes change.

@leilaniz5909 2 года назад

"Healthy coke" is a replacement/substitute for coke, not a doppelganger, never meant to taste like it, just to curb your craving for it and to have something that doesn't have sugar. My advice is... the caffeinnated bubly, "citrus cherry" tastes SO good with the balsamic vinegar. It reminds me of having a cocktail and is refreshing without being something that slows down my immune system. Aaight? Also, other good flavors besides cherry with the balsamic vinegar are mango, grapefruit, and peach. Any fruit that you can put spices and salt on it make for a good pairing.

As someone on a not for weight-loss symptom management medical diet one of my big annoyances when looking for recipes is "Tastes Just Like!" It never tastes just like. Tastes just like is a lie and instead of enjoying something for what it is you're just disappointed it's not as promised.

@one_smol_duck 2 года назад

Agreed. If I can't have a coke, don't give me a healthy knockoff. Give me a drink that was created to work with healthy ingredients.

@loriki8766 2 года назад

I've been working to lose weight too with my nutritionist and she helps me find things that I like that are healthy and will help me lose weight rather than things that "taste like whatever" for that reason - always tastes like disappointment. But finding foods I can eat and enjoy without destroying myself helps me not miss foods that aren't good for me.

@scorpionqueen11 2 года назад

Absolutely. I have tried some recipes that substitute ingredients and they claim you won't notice difference in taste. But ya do. I've tried dairy-free brownies and minced cauliflower instead of rice. Both yummy but they taste VERY different than the original.

I learned about this about a year and a half ago from Dr. Steven Gundry's podcast. It's one of his videos for 2017 and he doesn't call it "coke" per se but calls it a healthier alternative to soda. (He's mentioned in another video that it was something that he picked up in Italy a few years previous to his video on this subject.) I'm a hardcore Coke drinker and it's a passable substitute when made with lime-flavored sparkling water as lime is one of the original ingredients. My recommendation is to try this again with a can of chilled lime-flavored Bubbly and use two to three tablespoons of older balsamic vinegar. It's not going to taste exactly like real Coke, but will give you a cola-ish flavor.

@taifu13781 2 года назад

There’s actually some probiotic soda brands that have come out recently. I’ve tried poppi recently and though it isn’t exactly that soda flavor I’m looking for, it’s a decent flavored sparkling water. They use apple cider vinegar in their ingredients. The olipop brand has classic flavors like root beer and cola

I would definitely be interested in watching you try out some of the Coke recipes. I've always liked Coca-Cola over every other cola. I've even been to the factory in Atlanta a couple of times. I grew up in Smyrna which is right next to Atlanta so we had a few field trips there, one being the Coca-Cola factory. It's a cool place to visit.

I grew up in Roswell and went to Georgia Tech (across the street from Coca-Cola HQ), and lived in midtown Atlanta my entire adult life until this past February. I recently moved to Columbus, OH, which is home to the largest Pepsi distributor in the US. I am *dying* here in that sense... it's so hard to find a restaurant that has food that I like that also serves Coke as opposed to Pepsi. Also, you've been to the Coca-Cola factory? Do you mean the big bottling plant on 75 near the exit for Cleveland Avenue? I didn't know they allowed tours!

@candacel3305 2 года назад

@@highnoon9333 I just looked it up to double check. I remember always calling it the Coca-Cola factory, it's on Baker St in Atlanta and called World of Coca-Cola. It's pretty big. I'm not sure if they bottle there though.

@SharynS. 2 года назад

@@candacel3305 they do bottle a little bit there. The small bottle you get as a souvenir is bottled there at World of Coca-Cola. My favorite area in the museum is where you can sample 80-some different types of Coke found all over the world.

@Sandiastef 2 года назад

I tried this with plain seltzer and added sweetener. It didn’t taste like coke but I got the acidic part of the coke. I have some cola flavored stevia drops and it’s good but missing something. I added a tiny splash of balsamic to that and it tasted closer to coke. I think people that think it actually tastes like coke haven’t had one in years.

Reminds me of the times when me and my ex boyfriend would go out to eat, and I would run to the bathroom, and he would put soy sauce in my diet coke! Depending on the amount, it usually wasn’t all that bad. Just salty drink. Definitely one of my better memories of him (and I guess that’s saying a lot)

@Samalanderable 2 года назад

So, as a sparkling mineral water snob. My father got me hooked on Perrier as a kid at his favorite burger place. La Croix is not really a good *flavored* sparkling water. Everytime I have tried their flavored water it does not mix well and tastes chemically. Same for Aha, Bubly, and HEB brand. The only flavored sparkling water that I prefer with little to no chemical flavor is Perrier ( grapefruit is my favorite ) and San Pellegrino ( Aranciata ). Be careful with the San Pellegrino flavors as some can be pretty strong like the Aranciata Rosa or blood orange. But most of the flavors are pretty tasty. So if you try this recipe by Emmy I would use Perrier or San Pellegrino. They will probably mix better.

@catherinejustcatherine1778 2 года назад

I forget the brand I used to like, I think it was ~~Arowhead~~ (tall pale translucent blue bottle; I forget if the neck was tapered or a cylinder). I don't remember it being artificial tasting, but, the last time I had it was long ago. PS Google images just confirmed, it was Crystal Geiger, not Arrowhead.
