Regular Cola (not diet) is very high in sugar content. Not the best health-wise, however, it makes a good sugar base marinade. Here is my first attempt at making some beef jerky with cola. My first batch was sweet and bland, so I added some Frank's Hot Bufalo sauce, which nicely brought out a nice unique flavor. I have wanted to this for some time...... and last nite was the time! 
Coka-Jerky or Jerky Cola
-One pound sliced meat 1/8 - 1/4" thick
-One 591 ml/20 ounce Bottle Of Coca-Cola (not the sugar free stuff)
Boil the Coca-Cola in a pot, until there is about 4 ounces/120 ml left. This will be a thick syrup when it cools.
Pour about 2-3 ounces of this syrup with about one ounce of soya sauce into a cup. To this liquid, add the following:
Add 1/2 teaspoon of pepper
1/2 teaspoon of onion powder
1/2 teaspoon of ginger powder
1/2 teaspoon of chili powder
1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
Put the meat in a plastic mag, add the marinade, and manipulate the bag with your fingers several times to make a nice even marinate to the meat. Marinade overnight to 24 hrs, then transfer to a dehydrater. Once in dehydrater, coat both sides with Franks hot Sauce Buffalo Chicken Wing sauce. Good luck!
