What is Diet Cherry Coke?
This drink made its debut in 1986, four years after the launch of the original Diet Coke. Its release was driven by the success of Coca-Cola Cherry, which hit the market in 1985. The cherry-flavored variant aimed to offer a low-calorie option for those seeking a fruitier twist.
In 2018, Coca-Cola refreshed its Diet Coke lineup with several new flavors, including Feisty Cherry—a bolder take on the classic Diet Cherry Coke. According to the company, this new version was designed to deliver a more intense flavor experience.
With Feisty Cherry’s arrival, Coca-Cola removed this drink from physical stores, though it remained available online through Amazon for a while. Eventually, it disappeared from online retailers as well. In 2020, Coca-Cola officially discontinued Diet Coke Feisty Cherry, marking the end of the brand’s cherry-flavored Diet Coke offerings that had appealed to consumers for many years.
Why was Diet Cherry Coke discontinued?
Coca-Cola explained that this drink was discontinued due to declining sales and shifting consumer tastes and lifestyles. The decision aligned with the company’s strategy to adapt to evolving market trends and changing customer preferences.
