Halal drink

Halal drink

From Republika

Based on the letter by Agus S. in the daily Republika
of Oct. 5, 1994, the Institution of Food, Medicines, and
Cosmetics Study of the Islamic Council of Ulemas (LP POM MUI)
deplores the way PT Coca Cola Company carries out promotion
drives for their drinks, particularly Sprite, through the
mosques. It should be noted that the company has not yet applied
for a certificate certifying that Sprite is halal (acceptable
according to Islamic religion).

Actually, we have tested Sprite in several places. We regret
to state that test result shows that Sprite contains alcohol.
