Well you see, she was making the stew with coca cola before and just couldnt figure out why it wasnt quite right /s

No joke though, a little citrus soda is actually great in a chicken marinade. I tried it out of desperation once because I had no actual citrus (best chicken marinade base is always good oil+citrus) and boy is it fantastic. Especially with a little soy sauce as well

Ginger ale also works great for that if you have no ginger

Yeah, it's great for marinades and things. Sugar really helps bring out savoury and spicy flavours well. I always add a bit of brown sugar to any sauces I make, just a tiny bit goes really far.
