A History of Coca-Cola
On May 8th, 1886, pharmacist Dr. John Pemberton was visiting a pharmacy in Atlanta to promote his medicinal wonder, French Wine of Coca. This cure-all medicine was a mix of Bordeaux red wine, caffeine, and coca leaf extract. Since it was a medicine and more of a niche market, Pemberton decided to try to sell it as a soda. So he took his bitter tasting medicine and threw in a bunch of sugar. And to make it marketable to children and adults, he removed the alcohol. But not the cocaine, since after all, it was legal.
Asa Candler acquired the company in 1891 after Pemberton’s death. By the end of the 1890s, they were selling a quarter of a million gallons of syrup a year. Coca Cola Company is the world's largest beverage company, employing over 700,000 worldwide.
