Add to already increased mineralization of natural table waters -- this is already done by some bottlers. The difference is added cola extracts, for a real cola presence.
Possibly a way for the youngish set to conform to dietary principles and continue to consume cola drinks as per their age bracket.

So you're proposing a soft drink flavored with cola? Hasn't that been done before? |

¯pottedstu: Actually spent the better part of the day trying to find the ways and means to add calcium to bottled soda. About all that I can find out is that, at least in the US, we are somewhat averse to drinking sodapop at a proper meal and there is little or no info about the advisæbility of supplementing the diet with calcium if one consumes carbonated drinks regularly or exclusively. |

We who? I drink Coke with pretty much everything I eat. |

you can buy carbonated water with flavouring, I drink it all the time so I cannot see a cola one would be impossible. The only trouble would be with the taste. It would taste well like watered down cola - yuk.
reensure, you seem to be having a bit of a crisis with what you are consuming in general. |

As sodas (in the Coca-cola sense) are carbonated water with syrup added, I should think this would be very doable. It shouldn't be too difficult to order up some Coke syrup and add a bit to your sparkling water - though [po]'s right: If you add just a bit it'll taste like crap. You'll also end up with sugar in the drink and that may be something you're trying to avoid. |

Anyone remember Soda Stream carbonated drinks makers? You carbonate water with gas in a cylinder, and add syrup, flavors including a generic cola syrup. You could in theory use the still mineral water of your choice. |

'Anyone remember Soda Stream'. Yes, I have one, and use it every day. |

Do you live in the 1970's then angel? |

Wild guess that angel is referring to urinating. |

Orelsol [link] is close to what I'm interested in learning more about (no longer available through our wholesaler, alas) but I acknowledge that even here, taste is a factor. Specifically, the same folks that gag at Gatorade can be expected to gag at this, I agree with the statements of the producers in that it has a pleasant taste for an orange pop. Dr Enuf is a similar product -- damn good, IMO -- that is neither available locally nor widely praised, though is cola flavored. |
