Coke lovers can soon start preparing their share of the dark fizzy delight with a new beverage system meant for domestic use.
Coca Cola has purchased stakes in Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, the company that makes the Keurig beverage system, worth 1.25 billion dollars as part of an agreement to bring its familiar brands into the fast-growing at-home market.
T soft drinks giant has allowed Green Mountain to use its 'global brand portfolio' for Keurig Cold, a product that's expected to compete squarely with SodaStream.
