The Iconic Look
That made us think. What was the origin of Coca-iconic Cola’s look? To answer that question, let us go back a century to 1886 when John S. Pemberton mixed the first batch of Coke ingredients. Millions of people around the world know and love the drink today, but it was just a new drink when Pemberton created it in 1886. It didn’t have a name yet.
“Coca-Cola”
It was just a fizzy, sweet concoction without a name at the time. This quickly changed when Pemberton’s financial advisor began dispensing pearls of wisdom. Frank M. Robinson is known as the inventor of the “Coca-Cola” beverage. That’s striking gold right there! But where did he get the name from? What was the source of inspiration for it? It probably never occurred to him that it would become a household name around the world.
