Coca-Cola is extremely popular in Mexico, along with other products that the Coca-Cola Company sells, such as Sprite, Manzana Lift, toronja/grapefruit-flavored soft drinks, and so on. Pepsi is not very successful in the Mexican market though.

I've noticed that whenever families in Mexico order large quantities of tortillas and carne asada or pollo, they always have to get a big 2-liter bottle of Coca-Cola too.

Every time I order something in Mexico, the lady always asks me, "Quieres Coca?"

Start drinking horchata and orange juice. Once you get used to more natural-tasting sugar, Coca-Cola should have less of an appeal.

yup, in every lil taco ,quesadilla or sope stand all over the country ... u can ve a cold coke

Hahahaha, Vete A La Versh makes super funny videos full of dirty mexicanismos. Just to let all Spanish learners out there know that it's a good idea never to talk like that in real life!

Watch at your own risk:

My favorite ones are the Puchamon videos.

In the second video, there's a reference to Elba Esther Gordillo at 3:00, hahaha.

The first time I had horchata it was in los angeles & it made me crazy. it is slightly better than new york welchs grape! it tastes like a milkshake without the creams & milk!!
