A new UK company is rivalling leading cola brands with the launch its Green Cola product, sweetened with stevia and caffeinated with green coffee beans.

Paul Woodward, CEO, says, "It took over two years to perfect our cola, with literally thousands of attempts and recipe tinkering. One-by-one, we took out ingredients like aspartame, phosphoric acid and the ordinary caffeine used by mainstream brands, until we were left with a healthier cola that doesnt compromise on taste.

"There is nothing else like Green Cola on the market. Most low calorie colas contain aspartame, an artificial sweetener that many consumers have growing concerns about. This is an untapped market set to take off on the back of the sugar tax next year and we see a long-term opportunity to drive sustainable growth."

Green Cola is sold in 330ml cans with an RRP of 70p and 500ml PET bottles RRP £1.30.
