UK food labeling for Coca-Cola shows the ingredient: "vegetable extract." On the US label, it is referred to as "natural flavors."
In the book, For God, Country and Coca-Cola: The Definitive History of the Great American Soft Drink and the Company That Makes It, Mark Pendergrast gives a wonderful account of the making of the formula and the ingredients that go into Merchandise 7X - the secret blend of 7 different oils: orange, cinnamon, lemon, coriander, nutmeg and neroli (orange blossom). Of course the names Coca-Cola were derived from the two key ingredients: Coca leaves and Kola nuts. Additionally, other vegetable/plant extracts (may) include vanilla and lime.
the cola nut is used as the extract
