Usually I try to avoid American Coca-Cola and prefer Mexican Coca-Cola. If Mexican Coca-Cola is not available, I prefer not to drink it. While visiting US, I buy the overpriced Mexican version.

And yes, the taste is different, even for Coca-Cola light.



From what I know, this is because the american coca-cola is sweetened with corn syrup, while in other countries it's usually cane sugar.

I'm not sure if the corn syrup thing has changed in recent years or not.


AFAIK the Coca-Cola light doesn't have any sugar, so the usual cane sugar explanation does not apply.


The difference in taste is the glass bottle vs aluminum can or plastic bottle.
