At the time, the company said Vanilla Coke and Diet Vanilla Coke would possibly made available again in the future:[2] "We are exploring ways to bring them back at another time, but right now Diet Black Cherry Vanilla Coke and Black Cherry Vanilla Coke are what consumers are telling us they want."[10] Vanilla Coke beverages were never discontinued in some markets such as Australia, France, Russia and Germany.
