COCA-COLA has shared disappointing news with fans regarding a popular flavor.
Coca-Cola owns over 35 brands and has a seemingly endless amount of beverage options.

Once a person finds their favorite co*ke product, it's usually a lifelong bond.
Unless that drink happens to get discontinued.
On X, previously known as Twitter, one fan asked the company when they would be bringing back "Stevia co*ke."
That version of co*ke, called Coca-Cola Life, was sweetened with cane sugar and Stevia - which has a distinct taste to it.

Unfortunately, Coca-Cola had to deliver some bad news.
"In consultation with our North American portfolio team, we have made the decision to discontinue Coca-Cola Stevia in Canada [and the US] to streamline our focus on other Diet & Zero Sugar brands such as Coca-Cola Zero Sugar," the company said on X.
Coca-Cola's website describes Coca-Cola Life as a "reduced-calorie cola sweetened with a blend of sugar and stevia leaf extract."
While it still shows up on the site, it also says there are "no sellers" available.
Those looking to enjoy a sugar-free soda can still buy co*ke Zero Sugar, which comes in the varieties caffeine-free, cherry-vanilla, cherry, and vanilla.
FIZZLED OUT
Aside from co*ke and Diet co*ke, there are more than 60 flavors of the soda worldwide.
With that many options, not all of them can stick around forever.
Another co*ke product that fell off shelves is Coca-Cola Energy.
It was launched in 2020 as the first co*ke energy drink and came in four flavors: original, Energy Zero Sugar, Energy Cherry, and Energy Cherry Zero Sugar.
But it didn't pack enough punch for consumers.
The drink only had 80 milligrams of caffeine, while other popular energy drinks like Redbull had a whopping 111 milligrams.
Ultimately, most shoppers chose to stick to old standbys like Monster and Red Bull, leading to co*ke Energy being discontinued.
However, some fans still miss it.
“I'm legit sad,” one shopper saidon Redditupon finding out the product was discontinued.
“I love cola flavored stuff and while the Celsius cola is decent, the co*ke energies always hit the spot.”
While the drink is no longer available on US shelves, you might be able to find it inCanadaand the United Kingdom, where demand for the drink is higher.
