Through our relationship with Miami Beach we are committed to supporting programs and events that are important to the residents. The Fourth of July Celebration is just one of the many community initiatives that we are involved with year-round. And there is no better way to spend a relaxing Fourth of July than enjoying an ice-cold Coca-Cola on Miami Beach.”
