Mexican Coca Cola?


 I bought 2 bottles of Mexican *Red* at our local alt-grocery.

 I shared it with a friend as we drove to a gig.

 Goodness... it just tastes better, but it seems expensive... and I know it probably doesn't have to be.

 
 Anyone have ay ideas?


 best regards,
mike

    They make cheaper Strats, but their Coke is better?

    It must be the water.

    They still use sugar instead of corn syrup. Yummy.

    I think this is the reason it tastes better and is so popular in other countries.

    They advertise it on Mexican Radio

    In Tejas, they make a big deal out of it being made from real Cane Sugar, as opposed to the stuff that is made from psynthetic psugar, no matter how psychedelic, it tastes psick.

    It's also in a glass bottle. No aluminum or plastic to mess with the flavor.

      The very first creations from Coca Cola had real cocaine in them....no kiddin' look it up. Maybe in Mexico they are going back to the original recipe. Did you feel a lot of extra energy after you drank it?

    It probably would have cost a lot more than what I already thought was kinda expensive.

    I did too ... too bad I didn't keep it all. Those dolls are worth a small fortune now if you have a complete set with all the tubes, faces, attachments.

    My favorite episode was when he met Bigfoot. LOL

    I think it's interesting that the show was written purely from a man's perspective.  I can only imagine how differently the show might have played out if that were not the case.

    Not even sci-fi writers can do that.

    no.. no we don't. Karyn is right. Sci-fi writers, technology, alien invasions, polar shifts, or any other massive global event cannot make this happen.

    I'm old enough to remember the old Cola recipe and real Glass bottles. I travel to Mexico on business a few times a year....and it absolutely tastes 10 X better than what we get in the states. I'm not a diet cola fan per say... but  I can barely  drink the regular coke , I can tolerate the diet coke though. What ever artificial sweeteners they use...taste a lot like  uuuuhhhh   artificial sweeteners I guess. So maybe less tastes better.
