Innovation Update: Coca Cola Freestyle

Last March, I wrote about Coca-Cola’s new Freestyle soda fountain.  It’s designed to deliver 106 flavors to restaurant patrons.

While I haven’t tried it yet, a family member has.  She reported one drawback: the residual taste of flavors from previous pours.

I like the Freestyle concept.  More choice is good.  I like to mix cranberry and diet soda or a little diet soda and tea.  Hopefully Coke can find a way to flush the system of the previous flavors to get less blending between pours.
