Have a Coke and a Vitality Boost?

The good people at the Coca-Cola Company, who have been happily fulfilling our sugary, carbonated drink needs since 1886, want to change things up a smidge. They're introducing a line of health drinks called: Beautific.

Launching in France later this year, the line will debut with four different drinks, each addressing a specific beauty issue. First up? Hair health, weight loss, sun exposure and general vitality. Oui, oui, mon ami.

For this venture into uncharted territory, the world's largest soft drink maker has teamed up with French pharmaceutical company, Sanofi, And, surprise, the beauty elixir will be sold in pharmacies -- not grocery stores.

Both corporations are hopeful that this beverage offering will revive more than just consumers' vitality -- they're looking to revamp their images into those of healthier, more trustworthy brands. With Coca-Cola under fire for its unhealthy beverages amid rising obesity rates and Sanofi's pervasive image as a drug company, the stakes are high.
