Open Cola

How to Make Open Cola [via Natali]
Sounds like a royal pain in the ass to make something that tastes like sugary crap.

It made me wonder how many cola recipes are around, but a Cookin' with Gusset search only found recipes with cola in them, every single one of which sounds disgusting. Cola salad, cola soups, cola chicken; do these people have no taste buds?

Notes on Making Cola (chemistry lesson warning) on the Cube Cinema site. To my knowledge they aren't still serving the home brew. I'll check next time I'm there.
Edit: update

Urban legend* has it that those wanting to recreate something closer to the original Coca-Cola recipe need merely mix up coffee, red wine and cocaine. I don't know what sources or quantities of any of those three you would need but I'm sure it would be one hell of a party if you wanted to find out.

* Wikipedia confirms that it still contains coca leaf extract and snopes confirms that it did once contain trace amounts of cocaine.
