Excerpt:
The column was based on an old leather-bound notebook that belonged to
Pemberton's best friend and fellow Atlanta chemist, RR Evans. Glass was
intrigued and, after some digging, found the notebook had been handed
down the generations until it reached a chemist in Georgia called
Everett Beal, whose widow still possesses it.

The rediscovered recipe includes extract of coca leaves, caffeine,
plenty of sugar (it specifies 30 unidentified units thought to be
pounds), lime juice, vanilla and caramel. Into that syrup, the
all-important 7x flavourings are added: alcohol and six oils =96 orange, =

lemon, nutmeg, coriander, neroli and cinnamon.

US as there was in Stalin's Soviet Union in 1934. I mean, it's not just
right wing, it's very far to the right." --Eric Alterman
