Neither make the body more 'acid'.

Two teaspoons of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water aids in
digestion of proteins and  calms gastric reflux.  [From my own
experience.]

Kombuchu tea seems to work on peripheral parts of the body -  fixes
fluid retention problems [from my own experience]
, clears skin problems and often makes people that had joint problems
feel more able to be active again.  It appears to unblock many clogged
areas - varicose veins become less unsightly [from my own experience].

Many place great faith in the apple cider vinegar and honey
combination  - and their faith is often rewarded.  I could not
perceive any noticeable benefits when I followed that regimen.

By comparison - the taste of coke makes a friend want to retch because
she feel it burn in her stomach.  [I dislike the taste myself.]

Have I told you the story about the truck carrying a load of coke
concentrate in drums just north of Alice Springs, Northern Territory,
Australia?  The truck overturned and some of the drums burst open and
the concentrate ate away the tarsealed road and left a hole in the
road.  A friend went out with a crowd of onlookers to see - and he has
never touched coke since!

Apple cider vinegar and kombucha tea do not eat holes in the
flooring... but don't leave spilt coke on woodwork or it is ruined!
