South Australia – Where Iced Coffee outsells Coca-Cola

Written by on July 29, 2009 · 3 Comments

I got the chance to drive to Adelaide for a tourism promotion and I was happy to take up the opportunity. I had never been to South Australia, and it seems that it’s not on the radar of most domestic and international visitors either.

The coastal drive from the Victorian border to Adelaide along the Limestone coast is worth the road trip alone. Adelaide is a city with a well conserved Victorian heritage and completely surrounded by parkland.

One thing that has already endeared me to South Australia is Farmers Union Iced Coffee.

It’s not that it’s the best iced coffee in the world, though many people in South Oz will tell you that. No I like Farmers Union because around here this drink outsells Coca-Cola. I’m all for a land where a coffee beverage is the most popular drink. Only Irn-Bru in Scotland and Inca Kola in Peru can claim a similar honour.

    Wow, it’s the first time I’ve heard of a place where coffee is more preferred than Coke. I find that wonderfully surprising.
