After US President Donald Trump announced great that Coca-Cola would use cane sugar in the USA, the group now clarifies: It is only an additional offer. Coca-Cola said that one will not replace the maize syrup used today, but introduce a new product range with cane sugar. It should come onto the market in autumn.
In the USA you can already buy Mexican Coca-Cola with cane sugar at a higher price.

The syrup is cheaper, sweeter and longer durable than other types of sugar.
