This is kind of what OK Soda was like, and it's been 25 years since I had that and still miss it. I'm kind of hoping this scratches a similar itch tbqh.

Orange Vanilla Coke/Coke Zero hits the US late Feb.
- Thread starter Fat4all
- Start date
I found the zero sugar version today in south east Florida... Bought a 12-pack for shits and giggles. It tastes like Coke Zero + orange creamsicle. If it wasn't full price and limited time then I'd actually buy it for the occasional change of pace from diet coke.
Finally found it, but they only had the regular and not Zero. It's pretty good but I honestly feel like it should have more vanilla. It's also too sweet but that's bevause regular Coke is too sweet for me. Maybe the Zero version would taste better and have stronger flavors than "sweet sweet sugar."
Went searching yesterday and found nothing and then my dad asked me meet him for dinner at some BBQ restaurant in the middle of some tiny Texas town and lo and behold, they had some cans of the zero version there. I normally drink Coke Zero so I was pretty excited for this, but I found it kind of disappointing? I enjoy vanilla Coke so maybe I just don't like the orange flavor they used, or maybe it just works better with sugar. Probably won't be getting the zero version again
Gotta agree, bought some orange zero and it tasted more like Diet coke than Coke Zero.
yeah i got regular orange vanilla. Just tasted like vanilla with a hint of orange and i wasn't that big of a fan of vanilla coke to begin with, was hoping it was the other way around, more like coke orange that you can get out of freestyle machines with some vanilla in it.
When it was out in Canada over the summer I went back and forth on it. My first impression of original was that it was really damned good and surprisingly creamsicle-like. Then I went through a short period where I probably drank too much of it and found it a little too sweet. Then I hung onto my last bottle for months and only drank it a little while ago, and was back to "why can't I have this all the time."
Still haven't found the Orange Vanilla general release yet in Canada, though. I did find a bunch more places with the Canada Dry Pomegranate Ginger Ale and a place with some bottles of Blackberry Ginger Ale and Crush Pineapple, though, so not a total wash. (also when did I decide I was really into limited-release pop, help me)

My local target in Hesperia, CA is fully stocked with this, picked up 2 packs to try it, not bad, I got the coke zero vanilla orange, definitely not as good as i had hoped but good.
Finally got a case. Its not bad. Like drinking a orange creamsicle dipped in coke if I could describe it.
I tried a bottle of this over the weekend. I was disappointed. I love orange creamsicles, but that flavor (which they get right) combined with the cola flavor just didn't do it for me. Not horrible, just not my thing.
