Yes and no. We’ll never know. There are small changes all the time. You and I wouldn’t even notice the difference.
But if you compared today’s flavor to the flavor of 100 years ago side-by-side, I bet it’s pretty noticeable. Today they use corn syrup instead of sugar, for example. Many of the flavoring ingredients from back then aren’t even legal for human consumption anymore either.
Exact ingredients also differ between markets so we’re not even all talking about the same coca cola.
A part time bar owner I worked with claimed Mexican Coca Cola was the best due the sugar being made out of either corn or sugar cane, I don't remember which one, compared the US one.
It would have been interesting to do a blind test if that.
