Answer by Phi D
they don’t use cocaine in coke anymore. They haven’t done so in a very very very long time.
However, if it did, i would probably do an organic extraction using ether as a solvent. After a few crystallizations, you get crystallized coke syrup lol

Cocaine was never “part” of coca-cola, it was added to the sugary/flavored water.
They use “spent” coca leaves.
coca leaf extract was part of the original formula, and was the reason for the name CocaCola. they stopped using that ingredient a long time ago…it’s not sonething naturally found in the soda that has to be removed.
The soft drink (now) never contains cocaine. The original recipe contained cocaine, but the recipe has changed quite a bit since then.
They don’t use it at all any more so there is no need to remove it
