Coca-Cola confirms a cane-sugar version of its trademark Coke is coming to the US this fall

Coca-Cola announced on Tuesday that it will introduce a cane-sugar version of its trademark cola to its U.S. lineup this fall, confirming a recent statement made by President Donald Trump.

Trump mentioned on social media last week that Coca-Cola had agreed to use real cane sugar in its flagship product for the U.S. market, replacing high-fructose corn syrup. Although Coca-Cola didn’t immediately confirm this change, the company indicated that new offerings would be forthcoming soon.

On Tuesday, Coca-Cola Chairman and CEO James Quincey stated that the company intends to expand its product offerings “to reflect consumer interest in differentiated experiences.” Currently, Coca-Cola sells Mexican Coke, which is made with cane sugar, in the U.S.

“We appreciate the president’s enthusiasm for our Coca-Cola brand,” Quincey said in a conference call with investors Tuesday. “This addition is designed to complement our strong core portfolio and offer more choice across occasions and preferences.”

Coca-Cola reported better-than-expected earnings in the second quarter as higher prices offset weaker sales volumes.

Case volumes fell 1% globally and 1% in North America, but Coke said Tuesday that pricing rose 6% for the April-June period.

Global case volumes of Coca-Cola fell 1%, mostly due to weaker sales in Latin America. One bright spot was Coca-Cola Zero Sugar, which saw volumes grow 14%.

Traditional Coca-Cola still far outsells the zero-sugar variety, but consumer demand for zero-sugar versions is growing much more quickly.

Global case volumes of juice, dairy and plant-based beverages fell 4%, Coke said. Sports drink case volumes were down 3%, as higher demand in North America was offset by declines in Latin America.

Revenue for the Atlanta company rose 1% to $12.5 billion. Adjusted for one-time items, quarterly revenue was $12.6 billion. That was in line with Wall Street’s forecast, according to analysts polled by FactSet.

Net income jumped 58% to $3.8 billion. Its adjusted net income was 87 cents, which was higher than the 83 cents Wall Street forecast.

Coke said Tuesday it now expects full-year adjusted earnings to grow 8%. At the start of the year, Coke had expected earnings to grow 8% to 10%, but in April it lowered that range to 7% to 9%. Coke earned $2.88 per share in 2024.

Shares of Coca-Cola Co. were down slightly early Tuesday as were all major U.S. markets.
