Because Coca-Cola originally contained cocaine, hence the "coca" in the title. This was back in the day when cocaine was sold over the counter, of course. Eventually, when public opinion changed about the casual attitude towards certain drugs, they took it out and people then complained that it no longer gave them a kick, so they added caffeine. Spokespersons for the company will now pooh-pooh the amount of cocaine, saying it was "trivial".
