 ATLANTA -- Coca-Cola Co. will launch a new mid-calorie version of its flagship cola brand in Japan, followed by the United States this summer, the world's largest soft drink maker said yesterday.
The new drink, Coca-Cola C2, would have about half the calories of Coke Classic and other regular colas, the Atlanta-based company said. An eight-ounce serving of Coke Classic has 100 calories.
A Coca-Cola spokesman would not give specific dates for the roll-out of the new drink, but said it would appear in stores across the United States before the planned late summer launch of Pepsi Edge, PepsiCo Inc.'s low calorie cola.
