What Might Cause Dark Blackish Phlegm After Drinking Coke?
I recently bought a case of Coca cola cherry and for some reason twice now when I drink it my mouth feels very phlegmy and I went ahead and picked the phlegm out of my mouth with my fingers and it is just pitch black. I decided I d stop drinking for now. I m not sure if this is because of the coke or me?

Hello,
It seems that you do not tolerate this drink. For this reason, I would recommend avoiding it. If your symptoms persist, I recommend performing a throat swab in order to exclude a possible throat bacterial infection.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
