The Iconic Look
That got us thinking. How did the iconic look of Coca-Cola first come about? To answer that question, let us go back a century, to the year 1886, when John S. Pemberton mixed the ingredients for Coke for the first time. Today, the drink is known and loved by millions all over the world, but in 1886, it was just a new drink that Pemberton made. It had no name yet.
“Coca-Cola”
At that stage, it was just a fizzy, sweet concoction without a name. However, this soon changed when the financial advisor of Pemberton handed out pearls of wisdom. Frank M. Robinson went down in history as the guy who came up with “Coca-Cola.” Now, that is striking gold! But how did he come up with the name? What was the inspiration behind it? It probably never crossed his mind that it was going to become a recognizable name across the globe.
