Coca-Cola is one of the world's most popular beverages, but did you know that there are several other ways that you can use Coke in your everyday life? I have listed a few below for you to try.
1. Remove Marker Stains
To remove marker stain from clothes or carpet, pour a small amount of Coke on the stain and leave it for several minutes. Then wash with soap and water.
2. Glazing Ham
Coca Cola is the perfect sweet and tangy ingredient for glazing ham. The beverage enhances the flavor of baked ham and gives it a caramelized coating.
3. BBQ Sauce
To enhance the flavor of your homemade barbecue sauce, add a cup of Coke to your other BBQ sauce ingredients.
4. Fades Hair Color
The easiest way to fade unwanted hair color is to wash your hair with Coke. The acid in the drink helps to dissolve the dye.
5. Drives Away Wasps
Wasps are attracted to the sugary beverage. However, the acidic content in the drink kills the insects. To drive away wasps from your house, fill a bowl with Coke and keep it in your backyard.
6. Pesticide
You can also use Coca Cola as a pesticide for eliminating snails and slugs from your garden. The acid in Coke will kill the pests when they try to drink the beverage.
7. Treats Pain Caused by Bee or Wasp Sting
The acidic content in Coca Cola also helps in destroying the venom left behind on the skin when you are stung by a bee or wasp. Hence, rubbing Coke on the affected area helps in reducing pain caused by stings. Also works great for stopping the itch from mosquito bites.
8. Removes Gasoline Smell from Clothes
9. Removes Lime Scale from Bath
We all know how difficult it is to remove gasoline smell from clothes. The easiest and cheapest way of removing the smell is to add a can of Coke to your washer and then wash your smelly clothes.
The acid content in Coca Cola also helps in dissolving lime scale present in bathtubs. It can be safely used for loosening the lime scales from plastic and granite surfaces.
10. Floor Cleaner
It does not matter whether you want to wipe your kitchen floor or clean your bathroom floor and tiles, Coca Cola can always be used as a multipurpose floor cleaner. To make the floor sparkle, empty a can of Coke in a bucket of water and use it for swabbing. I would recommend following this with a rinse to prevent any stickiness.
