Caffeine-Free Coca-Cola is a caffeine-free version of Coca-Cola, produced and sold by The Coca-Cola Company in bottles, cans and Freestyle machines. It also includes Diet Coke based Caffeine Free Diet Coke and Coca-Cola Zero Sugar based Coca-Cola Zero Sugar Caffeine Free.

Caffeine-free colas were first released in 1983–84 for both regular Coca-Cola and Diet Coke, but also the company's Tab cola.[1] It was made at a time of growing health public consciousness in regard to caffeine and sugar drinks[1] and came a year after competing Pepsi Free (later called Caffeine-Free Pepsi), which launched a year earlier.[2] Caffeine-Free Coke have since been marketed all around the world. In 2013, Caffeine-Free Coca-Cola Zero was introduced in the United States and Canada.[3] It had been sold in other territories such as France prior to its North American release.[citation needed]

In 2020, it was reported that Caffeine-Free Coca-Cola had been difficult to find in stores,[globalize] both in cans and 2-liter bottles. The explanation given by various non-official sources is that it is due to a shortage of aluminum cans caused by the 2021–2023 global supply chain crisis. Because of the shortage of cans, less popular products are in short supply.[4] However, there was no ongoing shortage of aluminum cans.[5]
