Cokes from around the world
Does anyone know if they still do this in Epcot and where it is located? We have read about it several times and we still have never done it. Hope we didn't miss the boat.

You probably missed it due to the renovation it went through last year and the name change. I miss the old igloo!

Chris is right. I had to specifically look for it last time down...its not especially well marked and I think I walked right by it before I found it. And having been to Ice Station Cool many times, I should have known better.
The sodas are many different varieties. The samples are not "Coke", but different flavors that the Coca-Cola company sells around the world. None of which resembles Coca-Cola in any way. You can get a Coke there, but you have to buy a bottle of it, just like from any other Coke cart around Epcot and WDW.

Although it is horrid, you need to at least try the Beverley, if for no other reason, so you can tell others just how awful it actually is. Granted, I would highly recommend that you try it in small sips, it makes less of a mess that way. I have some each trip, I just refuse to believe it is actually as bad as it is (I prove myself wrong each time).
-
I second the recommendation to at least try the Beverly. It's one of those things you have to try - just be prepared!
-
I've wanted to do this on my last trip... Glad its still around. Is there any flavor that is better than US Coca-Cola?

Coca-Cola products from around the world are available at Club Cool, located near the Imagination! pavilion.

Beverly is an Italian aperitif available at Club Cool. It is very bitter, and many people spit it out before swallowing. People on the boards like to joke because the stuff tastes so bad

apertif.....Beverly
This is from the Wikipedia.....An apéritif or aperitif is an alcoholic drink usually enjoyed as an appetizer before a large meal. It is often served with something small to eat, like olives or crackers.
Now the Beverly is a "non" alcoholic drink ... but yet is still considered an aperitif. So saying this .. I am wondering has anyone ever had this drink with say a nice rye & brie? or triscuit & cheddar (LOL). Most aperitif's I have had are generally accompanied with "finger foods".
Now saying this....I however am one of a few Americans that actually like the Beverly. I was "shocked" (and this is EVERYTIME) by the first sip or two but after that I rather enjoy it. Now I am curious as to how it would taste with finger foods.

I think most of them are better than regular Coke, but that's purely a matter of individual preference.

So how many people tried the Beverly even though you were warned not to, just to see if it's as bad as everyone says?
I know I did.

I have to admit, even though I already know I don't like the taste, I always have some of the Beverly.
When I was in Atlanta last year, I visited the World of Coca Cola, and there's a testing area there also. Yes, you guessed it - I had some of the Beverly.
I don't remember the names or the countries of the various drinks, but I really like the ginger ale and the watermelon flavors.

I may be wrong, because we only tasted a few of the sodas (and unfortunately Beverly was among them ), but I THINK that the soda from Israel had a lemony-lime taste, kind of like Sprite? I enjoyed that one the best.
I was also surprised that all of the sodas we tasted were clear, not at all like our Coke, Pepsi, etc. Is the dark-colored syrup an American thing, does anyone know?

Here are the flavors.
Smart Watermelon - China
The Chinese name for watermelon, his-kua [pronounced she-gua] means melon from the west, which introduced it to china nearly 1200 years ago. Today, the Chinese produce 40% of the world's watermelon crop and consume millions of watermelons each summer.
Kinley Lemon - Israel
Invading Mongols were probably the first to introduce lemonade to the Middle East. Historical records from the 12th century reveal that a drink made of lemons, water and honey was popular among Genghis Khan's thirsty warriors.
Lychee Mello - Thailand
This unique beverage is very popular in its home country of Thailand. It contains the essence of lychee, a very sweet and juicy grape-like fruit.
Vegitabeta - Japan
The Japanese have long recognized the importance of beverages for both nutrition and health benefits. In modern Japan, this interest in healthy consumption finds its ultimate expression in "health" vending machines that dispense vitamin drinks like Vegitabeta.
Fanta Kolita - Costa Rica
The sweet quality of this fruity flavor from Costa Rica makes it very popular with children of all ages.
Mezzo Mix - Germany
The best known German beverage is beer. Germans often mix their beer with other beverages to weaken the alcohol content and enhance the flavor. Mixing flavors has also become popular in non-alcoholic beverages like Mezzo Mix.
Beverly - Italy
Drinking an aperitif before dinner to stimulate the appetite is a traditional part of Italian refreshment culture. Beverly, with its bitter flavor, is a popular non-alcoholic aperitif.
Krest Ginger Ale - Mozambique
Ginger has long been used as a medicinal herb throughout Africa so it is not surprising that ginger ale is a popular drink in Mozambique. It is also popular in shebeens, informal bars where it is used as a mixer.
