Report: Coke to Introduce New Vanilla Drink

LONDON - The Coca-Cola Co. is planning to launch a new vanilla-flavored Coke drink, the Financial Times reported on Monday.

The newspaper cited an article from trade publication Beverage Digest that said numerous people within the company expected a U.S. launch of a vanilla-flavored Coke "within the next few months."

Coca-Cola said earlier this month it expected sales volumes to grow between 4 percent and 5 percent in the current quarter, bolstered by strong demand in its key North American market.
