I haven’t seen any cokes in our grocery store’s growing mexican section.
But has anybody tried this?
It temps me every week!
Well, not for you, anyway.

Barbarian-looks like it!
Yeah, it wasn’t until JUST NOW that he was going to sleep on the couch.
It’s good stuff. Use it to make hot chocolate as per the recipe, don’t try to eat it straight - it wierdly crunchy.

Stop being tempted. Buy it, and like mischievous said, make it per the recipe. It’s DEE-LISCIOUS
It’s WAY good. We had it in Spanish class when I was in high school, and it was the best hot chocolate ever. I totally forgot it existed, and now I must check the Mexican section of the grocery store to see if they have it.
I just read the instructions on that page - that wooden tool they talk about, that’s what my grandmother used to use. It got all frothy and smooth… 
Your smilie makes me wonder what he used it on.
While it’s not quite the same, you can get a very similar texture by whipping it with a wire whisk - hold the whisk upright between your two hands and rub your hands back and forth as fast as you can, like lighting a fire with sticks.
I’ve heard this claimed more than once before for food and beverage items.
Now I’m an aficionado of fine flavors myself, but whenever I’ve put this to the test, it just doesn’t seem to pan out.
At our HS Class reunion a few years back, Mrs. Mercotan and I (yes, we went to the same HS) were enjoying the dinner. The woman who planned the reunion came by and noted that we hadn’t gotten to the dessert yet. She told us how wonderful it was, and how it was better than sex!
So I took a bite. She watched expectantly.
After savoring the flavors for a bit, I told her: “Either I don’t know how to eat, or you don’t know how to screw”.
Much hilarity ensued.
Funny, we haven’t gotten any further notices of reunions since then.
Thank you QtM, that’s the funniest damn thing I saw all week, and I AM going to steal it and use it.
Glad you enjoyed. The line certainly wasn’t original to me. In fact, I’d been waiting years for the right opportunity to use it.
Man, I was sure this thread was going to be about meatloaf. I’m bummed.
I’ve always thought the little bottles tasted better. Perhaps it’s a different ratio of soda to syrup.
Not to rain on your sugar laden parade, but many universities and social justice organizations boycott the purchase of coca cola because of its unfair labor practices in Latin America.
Georgetown University’s paper says:
They don’t exactly have a sterling record in India either.
Union Theological Seminary of New York are trying to get a message to coke:
So swig away at that sweet concoction. Get it from your local Mexican grocer. MMMMMMmmmmmmMMMMMM! Oppressing third world peasants never tasted so good!
Well, Dave, I hope that you have a LOT of that coke, because it looks like you’re gonna need it!
I sit here and look at the can of coke on my desk in front of me…
Carbonated Water, Sugar, Food Colour (150d), Food Acid (338), Flavour, Caffeine. Contains Caffeine.
…
Caffeine. Contains Caffeine :smack: Really? Why didn’t you tell me?!
That’s a molinillo.
Yum…I always drink as much Coke as I can when I’m in Mexico, because it tastes so much better. It’s always tasted better to me, even though I’ve been going to Mexico for dangerously close to 50 years (although the first few I probably wasn’t allowed to drink it). I would imagine the U.S. version was still made with sugar in the early days. It’s always surprised me that there were so few soft drink flavors in the U.S. All the different flavors and brands of Mexican pop are things I always missed when I came back to the U.S. (And no, the newer designer pop flavors aren’t the same…) It makes me sad that the Mexican market has become much more Americanized so that some of the brands and flavors that used to be available aren’t any more and that it’s become more difficult to buy pop in glass bottles down there.
Had Mexican hot chocolate at lunch. Mixed with a proper molinillo (I always forget that I have several). The only thing I cheat on is that I heat the milk in the microwave. I burn milk quite reliably on the stovetop.
I’d really love to have a few clay pots to cook in (yes, I know, lead glaze), but I can never find exactly what I want when I visit - don’t generally have enough time to look around because we get too busy hanging out with family. They’re what I learned to cook in and there are several dishes that taste much better cooked in clay pots.
