Coca-Cola Citra is a lemon and lime blend flavored variant of Coca-Cola, a cola beverage made by The Coca-Cola Company.
The drink was first released in Mexico in April 2005 as a trial product, [1] both as a regular cola and a diet (Diet Coke/Coca-Cola Light) version known as Coca-Cola Citrus Light. [2] It was thereafter given a limited edition run in the New Zealand market from October 2005 until 2006, [3] and again from March-September 2007.[ citation needed ] Coca-Cola Citra was also released in Japan, where it was distributed from May 29, 2006 for about a year. [4] [5]
The diet version of the drink had a permanent release and distribution in Britain as Diet Coke with Citrus Zest. It was launched there in February 2007, [6] replacing the Diet Coke with Lemon and Diet Coke with Lime flavors. It was originally reported that an orange-flavored drink, i.e. Coca-Cola Light Sango, was planned to launch instead. [7] In May 2018, Diet Coke with Citrus Zest was discontinued in the British market, replaced by a new Diet Coke Exotic Mango. [8]
In 2023, a Zero Sugar variant, named Coca-Cola Zero Calories Lemon-Lime, was released in Jordan. [9]
