Why Coke Tastes Fresher and Bubblier at McDonald's: The Water, Straws, and Delivery Systems Make a Difference
- McDonald's filters all water before it goes into the soda fountains to remove impurities that can cause off-flavors
- The water and syrup are pre-chilled and mixed in a special ratio that accounts for melting ice
- McDonald's uses wider straws so more Coke flavor hits your tastebuds
- The fountain dispensers stay cold to maintain carbonation and keep the soda bubbly
- Coke delivers syrup to McDonald's in stainless steel tanks to ensure freshness, unlike plastic bags for other restaurants
