    Sadly, I've bought Cokes in glass bottles for a nickel. The small ones. Ice cold. Then looked at the bottom of the bottle, to see where it came from.

    Sadly? Yes, because none of the kids today will be able to do that.

      Cans are always better but I agree that sometimes you just need to drink it out of a bottle.

      Now let’s talk about coke. Plastic bottle is the worst. Cans are better. McD’s fountain is better than that. But glass bottles from Mexico are top seed.

      I'm not sure the difference in taste with Mexican Coke Coca-Cola is attributable to the bottle, but rather the formulation.

          Mexican Cokes are made with cane sugar. Most of the taste difference is the formulation.

          I mentioned the small bottles. IIRC, those were 7 ounces. Much like a little Miller, the small Cokes are meant to be consumed straight from the bottle and the smaller volume means it's usually still cold by the time you take the last swig.

            BTW, I don't care for Pepsi, except for the throwback version. The difference in Pepsi made with cane sugar is even more than the differences between Cokes.

                I’ll say this, there is something to the way the bottle fits the hand, the cold glass, the little vapor when you pop the top off… It’s probably mostly nostalgia, but yeah, there’s something to the bottle…

                    TBH, I couldn't tell much difference when I tried a Mexican Coke.
