Nuka Cola Original: What was it's original ingredients?

Post » Tue Apr 20, 2010 10:21 am

After managing to find out most ingredients via the vault.

vitaminerals and health tonics - Well, pretty much the same here.

seventeen different fruits mixed in - This is the part, we're not sure of, We know that passion fruit and banana's are one.

The well pointed out ingredients are,

carbonated water, caramel color, aspartame, phosphoric acid, potassium benzoate (to protect taste), natural flavors, citric acid, and caffeine.

and now...

Well I can tell you one thing, you are not going to want to just go out and get those chemicals and mix them together to get a delicious soft drink if thats what you are thinking.

Phosphoric acid in particular can be quite dangerous depending on the concentration.

In short, I wouldn't drink a "make it yourself" soda beverage.

Honestly I wouldn't try it. Or at least don't use the more dangerous chemicals such as phosphoric acid and potassium benzoate (I don't even know where to get these besides your local chemistry storage, at say a highschool).

In any case, you are not going to be able to make something like coca cola, its just not feasible, at best you might be able to make a flavored carbonated water drink. :shrug:

Theres a big difference between food-grade, medical, industrial grades true, but the stuff is pretty easy to get. Home brewery goods stores will you sell the stuff by the gallon in concentrate form. Its pretty easy to mix and a lto fo people who have played around wiht home brewing beer have had a lot of experience using it. Theres lots of kits out on the internet to do make it yourself soda some more complicated than the rest, sure you can kill yourself if you try hard enough but this isnt exactly rocket science, read directions and youll be fine.

Your statement is junk. Just like beer, pop is better when made at home.
