Many people agree that there’s no better cola than Coca-Cola, and usually when you talk about drinks or beverages, the name “Coke” is always a part of it.

But what if I say your favorite drink ain’t just a drink anymore. Or if I say, I really love coke but I don’t buy one to drink one.

Confused?

I’ll give you 12 reasons why…..

Note: No other variations of Coke were used aside from the regular one.

1. You can clean a burned saucepan by pouring Coke into it and boiling. This takes out all the staining.
2. Lightly brushing a photograph with Coca-Cola and drying it quickly will give your photograph a sepia effect. Don’t soak it too much or it will crinkle. Photocopied black and white pictures make great looking “antique” prints, if you treat them with this process. Maps photocopied and treated this way, look fantastic in antique style frames.
3. If you dye your hair and the result is too intense, flat Coca-Cola will help to lighten it.
4. Give old coins a soak in Coke and you’ll be happy to see them shiny once more.
5. Pour Coca-Cola into your kettle and leave all day. This will remove the limescale inside.
6. A can of Coke poured into the toilet will clean it. The acid in the drink gets to work right away.
7. Make an excellent barbecue sauce by mixing Coke and ketchup, half and half. Coat the meat with this before cooking. It’s mouthwatering.
8. Put Coke into flat wide dishes in the garden and it will help to rid your plants of slugs. They are attracted by the sweet smell and once they fall in, they can’t get out.
9. Rusty bolts can be loosened by soaking a rag in Coca-Cola, and wrapping it around the bolt. Leave for a few hours and it will be easier to move.
10. You can clean cheap jewelry in a glass of Coke. Brush with a toothbrush and rinse well. (Not recommended for valuable items, or those with gemstones in them.)
