I can only say Coca Cola taste the same in The Netherlands, Germany, and Vietnam. While I can generally tell quite well when I get a different cola then a Coca Cola one. Based on that there should be some kind of international standard?
I can imagine US being different due to less strict rules around food than EU (much American junkfood is altered in the EU market due to this). But then I’m suprised Vietnam taste the same for that same reason 🤔.
I can give you some insight. Coca Cola sends different recipes to different factories depending on the water used to make Coke so that it always tastes the same wherever you buy it.
The biggest difference between cokes around the world comes from the sugars that are used to make Coke. Different quality of sugars produce different qualities of beverages. It all depends of the sugar supplier of the factory.
In my experience the one in Spain is less sweet than the one in the USA. Same in France.
I recently travelled to France and the fridge was so cold it had frozen half of the coke. Then I tasted it and it felt like the USA version. But then I realized it was because most of the water was still frozen while the rest of the Coke was already getting unfrozen and felt more concentrated/sweet.
For a day I thought the Coke in France was also sweeter.

I generally drink Zero. If the sugar is the different, could that be why?
Zero taste the same as regular to me but less sweet, but since I rarely drink regular I don’t have the exact taste of that in my mouth.
Same sort of experience. It tastes the same in the UK as it does in Spain.
