Arriving sometime this summer, Coca-Cola will roll out a revolutionary drink dispensing machine called the Coca-Cola Freestyle.

It uses a touchscreen interface and highly concentrated flavor cartridges with micro dosing technology to deliver more than 100 beverages from a single machine.  Unfortunately, you won’t be able to mix your own concoctions, but flavors that you have never heard of before, such as Fanta Peach or Raspberry Coca-Cola will be available for your drinking pleasure.

Leaving no stone unturned, Coke will track the consumption of flavors and will probably use the information to influence the development of future Coke beverages. Additionally, Coke has the power to remotely kill any flavors.

Apparently, the machines have already started to show up in California, Georgia and Utah.  By summer’s end more than 60 machines should be scattered across the US.
