Cola is a drink that needs no introduction. The first drinks of this type were made from the fruit of the cola tree, coca leaves and soda water. Today, the recipes are closely guarded by producers. It is known that the base is caramel, which is responsible not only for the sweetness, but also the characteristic color. In addition, there is a citrus aroma, spices, vanilla and the obligatory bubbles. It turns out, however, that you can make cola at home, and you will only need three ingredients. And these are not aromas or spices.
The recipe for homemade cola is a hit. It only has three ingredients, including… vinegar.
TikTok is full of not only funny videos, but also tips and recipes. For some time now, a real hit has been “homemade cola” with quite unusual ingredients. Can you make cola with… balsamic vinegar? It turns out that you can, although the key is not only the vinegar itself, but also the other ingredients. Contrary to appearances, it is not only an ideal addition to a salad. It can also be added to desserts, e.g. strawberries, baked pears. It improves digestion, and also refreshes, which is especially important.
NOTE! People with peptic ulcers, stomach hypersensitivity and other digestive system problems and diseases should be careful with balsamic vinegar. Acidic vinegar can irritate the stomach, so it is better to be careful with this recipe and in case of discomfort after consumption, contact a doctor.
Cola with three ingredients? She tried it and couldn’t believe it. “Hey, it’s delicious”
The key to success here is to combine vinegar, e.g. from pomegranates or figs, with maple syrup and sparkling water, but not just any kind, but with a lime or other citrus flavor. A teaspoon of vinegar and half a teaspoon of syrup is enough for a glass (250 ml), less if you choose an additionally sweetened drink to dilute it. All this is enough to pour sparkling water or citrus water, and for greater refreshment it is worth adding ice cubes. If you believe the Internet users, the taste is “deceptively similar” to cola. What is the truth? Unfortunately, there is no consensus here. Some claim that there is actually a slight resemblance, others that they have never drunk anything so strange and terrible.
A while ago, Tiktoker Adrianna, known on the platform as @truebeautyofficial, decided to try the recipe. “Hey, this is delicious,” she said. Not everyone was equally convinced.
Your face says otherwise.
It’s not cola, it’s just water with vinegar
– fans wrote in the comments. Others shared their own homemade cola recipes. They emphasized adding lemon juice
Try ginger syrup, it’s more similar.
