綠色包裝的可口可樂阿根廷上市
Coca Cola has used their familiar and distinctive curved script since 1887. And since the 1920s their famous logo has been placed on a red background on the company's classic cola.
自1887年起，可口可樂就一直使用我們現在熟悉的標誌性流線簽字體商標。20世紀20年代之後，紅色成爲這家公司經典可樂商標的固定背景色。
But the soda brand is now going green, at least in Argentina. The drinks giant has launched Coca Cola Life, which is sweetened with sugar and the naturally occurring, no-calorie sweetener stevia.
但在阿根廷，這一汽水品牌有了新穎的綠色包裝。食品巨頭可口可樂公司推出新品“生命可口可樂系列”，使用白糖和不含卡路里的天然甜葉菊作爲甜味劑。
The new product features a striking green label and is packaged in the award-winning PlantBottle. This is made with 30 percent plant material and is fully recyclable.
這款新品有醒目的綠色標籤和飲料瓶，這款瓶身設計曾獲過“PlantBottle”大獎。瓶子材質中含有30%的植物原料，完全可回收利用。
Coca Cola says the bottle 'looks, functions and recycles just like traditional PET plastic, but does so with a lighter footprint on the planet and its scarce resources.'
可口可樂公司表示：“這種瓶子的外觀、功能以及回收利用都與傳統的PET塑料瓶一樣，只是所用資源更少，全球碳足跡更輕更環保。”
The new drink has 108 calories in a 600 milliliter bottle - between classic Coke with 250 calories and the zero-calorie Diet Coke.
一瓶600毫升的新款飲料中只含有108卡路里，介於250卡路里的傳統可樂和零卡路里的健怡可樂之間。
'Coca-Cola Life is the first soda from the Coca-Cola family that is naturally sweetened with sugar and Stevia, which adds to our portfolio a delicious taste with a proposed low in calories,' Coca-Cola stated on its Argentinean website.
可口可樂公司在阿根廷的公司主頁上寫道：“生命可口可樂系列是可口可樂家族第一款使用白糖和甜葉菊作爲甜味素的蘇打水飲料，讓本產品在保持自然甘甜的同時降低卡路里含量。”
The world's largest soda company has used stevia in 45 products, such as Vitaminwater Zero and Fanta Select, but never in its flagship cola.
作爲全球最大的汽水公司，可口可樂公司在其45種產品（如維他命水和芬達系列）都使用了甜葉菊，但在招牌可樂產品上使用還是第一次。
There is no date for introducing the product elsewhere. Company executives at a news conference in Buenos Aires likened the launch with the 2005 debut of Coca-Cola Zero, which was first introduced in Australia and later sold elsewhere.
目前尚未定下新品可樂銷往其他地區的確切時間。公司主管在布宜諾斯艾利斯的新聞發佈會上，將其比作了2005年推出的新品零度可樂。零度可樂最先在澳大利亞出售，之後銷往全球。
Consumer Edge Research analyst Bill Pecoriello said a global roll out seemed likely because it would also preempt PepsiCo's sweetener innovation.
消費者前沿研究分析師比爾說這個新產品將銷往世界各地，還會領先於百事可樂公司的甜味素革新進程。
Coke and Pepsi have been using stevia, a plant native to Paraguay, in drinks for years, but mostly in noncarbonated, fruit-flavored drinks. As recently as May, PepsiCo CEO Indra Nooyi said stevia did not work well in colas, even though Pepsi Next in Australia uses stevia.
甜葉菊原產巴拉圭，多年來可口可樂和百事可樂公司都在使用它作爲甜味素，但大多隻用於水果口味的非碳酸飲料裏。直到五月，百事可樂公司CEO盧英德還說把甜葉菊加到可樂裏並不好喝——即使澳大利亞的一款百事可樂里加的就是甜葉菊。
