Ingredients worth knowing

Carbonated Water, Sugar, Natural Cola Flavour, Citric Acid (INS 330), Phosphoric Acid (INS 338), Cinnamon Extract, Nature Identical Caramel Flavour, Caramel Colour (INS 150d)

Phosphoric Acid (INS 338)
Acidulant/flavouring in colas. Linked in studies to dental erosion and, with heavy long-term cola intake, lower bone density (EFSA).
Caramel Colour IV (INS 150d)
Can contain trace 4-MEI, which California Prop 65 lists as a possible carcinogen; JECFA/EFSA consider levels in cola-type drinks within safe limits.
Citric Acid (INS 330)
Naturally occurring fruit acid used as an acidulant. Well-studied, low concern; frequent intake from acidic drinks can contribute to dental erosion.
