Answer: Substitutionary Effect.

Step-by-step explanation:

The new coke drink the very berry coke, has reduced the consumers demand for it's original product the Cherry Coke, which is as a result of the extra special flavors of the new drink: this is a typical example of the Substitutionary effect.

Substitutionary effect occurs, when consumers replace their demand for an existing product to go for a similar product of better quality or cheaper price range.
