If you’re a fan of all the usual mass produced colas but prefer to support companies with better values, why not try this one - developed in Montreal, by an independent company comprised of delightful talented smart community minded individuals?
Zam Cola hits all the classic notes. Sweetened with real cane sugar. Contains a house-made hibiscus super-concentrate as the syrup base but in a blind taste test challenge would throw a lot of tasters for a loop. Primarily made from real ingredients*. A little caffeinated, just like the usual stuff.
*Unlike other Zamalek releases, this one contains natural flavours, but it turns out it’s just simply not possible to synthesize that classic 'cola' taste without a little sprinkle of je ne sais quoi. Many commercial sodas don’t use ANY real ingredients, deriving their flavour entirely from natural and artificial flavours, not to mention a bevy of artificial sweeteners and preservatives, so compared to other colas or craft sodas in general, this is still a marked improvement. Natural flavours are "generally recognized as safe" and typically mean flavour compounds synthesized in a 'carrier' such as propylene glycol. They are commonly used in food ingredients.
