CNN MONEY - Coca-Cola unveiled the citrus-flavored soda in 1996 as an answer to Pepsi’s Mountain Dew. But Surge couldn’t compete and was taken off shelves in 2001, to the dismay of what had become a cult-like following.
Thousands of passionate fans have been fighting for its return for years, and today they tasted victory.
Coca-Cola put a limited supply of Surge up for sale on Amazon Monday.
This is just a test, said Coca Cola spokeswoman Sheree Robinson.
“It has a big fan base, however, we’re not sure how that will translate into sales,” she said.
