Mexican Coke

Glass-bottled import

Mexican Coke is Coca-Cola bottled in Mexico, prized by enthusiasts for being made with cane sugar rather than the high-fructose corn syrup used in American Coca-Cola.

Often sold in distinctive glass bottles, it commands a premium at restaurants and specialty grocers: The taqueria only serves Mexican Coke.
