(Not) Energy Drink by Flea

WARNING: There may be problems with the videos, as YouTube is being a bit crap. Apologies in advance if they break.
I decided to create and compare three different drinks. All three of these drinks consist entirely of Coca-Cola, the key difference between each one will be the state of matter in which it exists.
Let's start with the Solid Cola Drink...
Music: Requiem for a Tower - Clint Mansell
The solid cola drink was weird. As it was just beginning to melt, the top of the tower (for lack of a better word) tasted great. If there were a Coke ice lolly, that is what I would want it to taste like.
Unfortunately, it went downhill from there...
Further and further down, as the Coke melted, it seemed to get stronger, which was not a good thing. As can be seen from the video, attempting to drink the liquid remains was not a pleasant experience.
So, lets move on...
Gaseous Cola Drink...
Music: Adagio for Strings - DJ Tiësto
This one was actually quite pleasant. The fumes/steam/smoke had a wonderful cola smell and, although it didn't really smell like Coke, was still surprisingly good. That being said, it did start hissing uncontrollably after a while, so I stopped then...
So finally, a Liquid Cola Drink...
Don't worry, it's not as boring as just pouring Coke from a bottle, into a glass and drinking it.
This was horrible. It was like very, very, very pure cola. And not good.
So, in conclusion, if you want a tasty refreshing drink, don't freeze it, or boil it and condense it. Either just boil it, or leave it alone!

That was quite awsome. I've tried frozen cola before and its really not that nice it's a strange taste, it's hard to explain but really isn't nice at all. I never thought of trying the boiled smell though it occured to me to try the concentrate but i never did. I may though just to see what it's like. I wonder which tasted worse though the boiled coke or my cream kick. Hmmmmm.
SCIENCE!
