Coca-Cola Life Coca-Cola Life Coca-Cola Life is a lower-calorie version of Coca-Cola, made using stevia and sugar as sweeteners. It has 27 kilocalories/100 mL, containing only 60% of the calories of regular Coca-Cola. It was created in Argentina and Chile after five years of research together in these countries. The drink contains stevia leaf extract, the first branded Coke product to use it. However, it is not the first product owned by the Coca-Cola Company to use stevia. Over 45 products distributed by Coca-Cola use stevia extract, including Vitamin Water and Seagram's Ginger Ale. Coca-Cola Life contains sugar, but uses less sugar
Like Cola sponsor of one of the races in the 1983 Winston Cup that occurred on July 24 of that year – the Like Cola 500 at Pocono Raceway in Long Pond, Pennsylvania. Tim Richmond won that race. Commercials for the product featured comedian Tim Conway and actor Kevin Dobson as spokespersons. Because several 7 Up bottlers also distributed colas such as Coca-Cola, Pepsi-Cola or RC Cola (which introduced another caffeine-free cola, RC 100, in 1980) they refused to distribute Like Cola – limiting its availability. The Like name was first used from 1963 to 1969 for 7 Up's diet lemon-lime soda
