John Pemberton, a pharmacist, concocted a drink around 1884 with coca leaves, caffeine, and alcohol. He called the new drink Wine Coca and some early ads list it as Coca Wine but in 1886 decided to take the alcohol out and Coca Cola was born. The company was bought out around 1889 for close to 3,000. by Asa Candler, whose marketing techniques led the new soft drink to world dominance all through the 20th century.
