I was doing the weekly shopping and was examining the new variety of salsa's that the store now has (just remodeled/ added on).  I was looking for the real stuff, not the usual stuff that's made in New York City (New York City?).  I noticed some liquid in glass bottles.  I just passed it off as the usual juices, but something made me bend down for a closer look.  They now carry Mexican soda (made with sugar) and they were on sale for 50 cents each.  Sooooo I had to pick some up, of course.  I got Apple, Lime, Grapefruit and Orange.  
What are your thoughts about soda from Mexico (minus the popular US brands)?

Our supermarkets carry those, but I have never tried them.  I figure as long as I can get the brands I get now, I really have no reason to try the others.

Jarritos is good stuff.  Good looking bottle and the pina or pineapple as it's known up here is really top-shelf stuff. The Orange is kind of weird but the lime and grapefruit are pretty good. I not a sidral  mundet drinker, it reminds me of cheap apple juice that has been carbonated.

I tried the Apple Soda yesterday.  Not that bad.  I was expecting a cross between apple cider and Woodchuck Cider but it was lighter tasting.  I may get some again.  Haven't had time to try the Jarritos - maybe tomorrow.
