In 1886, a pharmacist created Coca Cola so it could be sold as a medicinal beverage. He named it Coca Cola after its main ingredients: coca leaves and kola nuts. Soon the drink was sold to Asa Candler, then in 1892 the Coca Cola Company was founded. The first ad said, "Coca Cola. Delicious! Refreshing! Exhilirating! Invigorating!". By the year 1895, Coca Cola was being sold in every state. In 2018, the Coca Cola Company made a total revenue of about $33 Billion, placing it as the second biggest soda company in the world!
