how did Coca Cola get its name?!
Answers:
When the drink was first launched it contained two main ingredients: cacaine, which was derived from the COCA leaf and caffeine, which was derived of KOLA nuts. "K" was then replaced with "C" for marketing purposes leading to the name Coca Cola.

Because it used to have cocaine in it. Coca-cocaine. And it was a cola. It used to be used strictly as medicine.
