The ENTIRE History of Coca-Cola in 21 Minutes

A fogged cooler door. A wall of red. A drink so familiar you stop seeing it. Behind it sits a system built on strangers, a dollar nobody collected, and a secret that was never the syrup. This is the story of a wounded Confederate officer chasing relief from pain, a bookkeeper with beautiful handwriting, and the businessman who gave away the most valuable right he owned for a single dollar. You'll meet the rivals who vanished, the bottle shaped from the wrong plant, and the 79 days a company tried to change its own taste and the country said no. You'll also see why a federal appeals court is sitting on a decision that could cost Coca-Cola up to 20 billion dollars.
