Mexican Coca-Cola

[dazie]

I was going to put "Mexican Coke" but this thread isn't about that.

The cheapo grocery store in town now carries glass bottles of Mexican Coca-Cola.  *swoon*

For years Ursus has been going on and on about how much better it is than the US kind, and you know what?  He's right!

They don't use high fructose corn syrup to make their Coke in Mexico- they still use cane sugar.  So the result is a cola that's less cloyingly sweet than the kinds that DO use corn syrup.  It's a bit zingier, almost peppery.  Very tasty.

At $1.85 a half liter though, it's definitely only for a treat.

I have heard Costco is selling it in the 12 oz glass bottles.  *double swoon*

There is a local vendor that was getting mexican pepsi in glass bottles, but pepsi threatened to sue.

There have been stores that sell that here in Texas for a few years.  It's very hard to describe how different it really is.  I love the Mexican soda version.  There's a non-Tex-mex restaraunt in Pasadena (just down the road about 10 minutes) that serves it as part of their regular menu.  Very yummy!!

I just read this.

Someone help me please...Did Dazie actually say I was right????

Fess up, who really wrote this? Boeuf? Mano?

I saw nothing...

I went to the Coca Cola museum in Atlanta and they had it in the fountain. Along with all of the other weird drinks from around the world. That's a pretty cool place.

[BigDun]

That was the one room that made the tour worth while.

I was carried out on a stretcher because I was in a diabetic coma. Well, not really. But close.

Liar.

I didn't suggest or say it, but having Dazie admit that you are right about something is a bit out of character.

Jones makes a killer Cream Soda.  It's so very very good.
