According to a report over 1.6 billion drinks with Coka Cola trademark are served daily and it is the secret formula of the Coke that bring the company zillion of dollars annually.
Not so long ago the formula was kept so secret that the original documents of the formula were kept in a vault in the Headquarter of Coka Cola and was known to only two executives of the company that were not even permitted to travel in the same ride.
