Along the lines, this full episode is finally available online, I have been waiting to post it up here. Comedy Central has a show called 'Drunk History' where they get historians ripped and have famous actors act out their drunk stories. The Atlanta episode featured Pemberton and his Coca-Cola recipe, pretty funny stuff. http://www.cc.com/episodes/mt4fl6/drunk-history-atlanta-season-1-ep-104 Title: Re: Pemberton's first attempt at Coca Cola Post by: Larry on June 10, 2014, 08:29:53 am Nerve tonic, health restorer, and stimulant. Jee, I wonder why they took the cocaine out. :tounge:
Very Cool bottle. I just threw out a case of those laying around the house. I thought they were garbage. Now I know how Picasos mother felt when she threw away all those pictures on her refrigerator that Pablo scribbled when he was a kid. :Oo: Title: Re: Pemberton's first attempt at Coca Cola Post by: sc1101 on June 10, 2014, 08:59:17 pm Quote Nerve tonic, health restorer, and stimulant.
