The bitter taste of Beverly has become familiar to many Americans who get a chance to try it at Coca-Cola tasting stations at the World of Coca-Cola museums in Atlanta, Georgia and Las Vegas, Nevada, as well as the Coca-Cola Store at Disney Springs, located inside Walt Disney World in Lake Buena Vista, Florida. Staff there have explained the flavoring ingredient as grapefruit rind, which includes intensely bitter components.
