(This venue is closed.) Soft drinks bottled under the Jarritos brand are widely available in the United States as well as Mexico, in flavors whose names are translated very directly, with one exception: Mexican cola (370 ml., $1.50). Evidently this is meant to signal authenticity-seeking North-of-the-border soda drinkers that the sweetener is cane sugar and not high fructose corn syrup (the ingredients label confirms). I can't imagine that in the Jarritos hometown of Jalisco one would ask for a "Mexican" cola, but I haven't found a Spanish-only label to support that supposition.
