Mexican Coca-Cola On the Market

“When you think of hot foreign imports these days, the Prius, “Harry Potter” and maybe Rihanna come to mind. Theyre all going to have to scoot over and make a place at the international table for the latest trendy concoction: Mexican Coca-Cola. Bottled in glass and made with cane sugar rather than the high-fructose corn syrup used in most American Classic Coca-Cola, the soda from south of the border has proven a steady-enough seller in California and the Southwest that some large chains have begun to stock it. Its also available online, including giant Internet retailer Amazon.com.

Bob Phillips, a spokesman for the Coca-Cola Bottling Co. of California, said the bottler has distributed the Mexican version for years: “We are a business that responds to consumer demand. Theres tremendous loyalty towards Mexican Coca-Cola.”
