After seeing the popularity with distributing Mexican Coke and Fanta, Coca Cola is announcing this week it will also be handling distribution of Mexican Sprite. Yes, 12 oz green glass bottles, yes made with cane sugar. I am guessing, and it's only my opinion they will be in Sam's Club & Costco by end of the year. It's good to have family that works for Coca Cola ( Detroit) Now if he'd drop off all the commemorative bottles he claimed to have saved for me.  |

That's cool. My one son loves Sprite. I'm waiting for that Mexican Squirt to come out at Costco.

I don't understand the announcement. I can already buy Mexican Sprite in my grocery store. It's been available for months.

I go into every little international mart and ethnic grocery, and the only thing they seem to have is Fanta in the bottle. Haven't been able to find 7up, Sprite or Squirt yet. Kind of a fun thing to look for though, those markets can be crazy and I usually end up buying something anyways. Even found the best fish market in the area in my search, can't touch the quality and price of the fish anywhere.

Down in the old market in Omaha you can get mexican pepsi, coke, sprite, and fanta at the gas station down the street from my work. Can also get them at the shop next door but it is more expensive there.

My local grocery store has been stocking Mexican Coke, Pepsi, and Orange Fanta for a few months. They usually have a few bottles on the bottom shelf of the Mexican/Chinese isle for $1.09 a bottle. This morning I picked up a few bottles of Mexican Sprite. The bottle is a copy of the old Sprite bottles with the embossed dots on it! Looks like the older 10 oz. returnable bottles that I got from the Winona Coke plant. Pretty cool. Can't wait to try one!
My local store is Town and Country in Valparaiso, IN.

My grocery store has Mexican Coca Cola, Sprite, and Pepsi ($1.29 reg. each or $.99 on sale). My Walmart has the 7up with sugar in bottles as well as Mexican Coke.
Just a tip for those of you looking for bottled 7up at Walmart. It may not be on the soda isle. My store didn't even have a sticker on the soda isle. They put it on a side kick (the 2 foot section between the end cap and main isle) near the frozen food area. So you have to search around non-obvious places.

Would be cool if they did keep it since I kind of like it better |
