Cola Couronne (which means "crown cola" in French) is a very popular soft drink from Haiti. It is the oldest soda made in Haiti by a company called Brasserie de la Couronne S.A. Many people consider it Haiti's favorite soda. It's a drink that Haitians often have, whether they live in Haiti or in other countries around the world.
Where to Find Cola Couronne
In Haiti, you can usually buy Cola Couronne in tall glass bottles or plastic bottles. This is because Haiti does not have enough aluminum to make cans for the drink. However, canned Cola Couronne is made in the United States. It is produced at a plant in Miami, Florida, called Universal Beverages, LLC.
Because of this, you can easily find canned Cola Couronne in places like South Florida. It's also available in other parts of the U.S. and Canada. This includes cities like Montreal, where many Haitians live. The Coca-Cola company also makes Cola Couronne in the Dominican Republic, specifically in Santo Domingo.
What's in Your Soda?
Each can of Cola Couronne contains 120 calories. It also has 31 grams of sugar. The amount of sodium in a can is 45 milligrams. This is the same amount of sodium found in a can of American Coca-Cola.
