They used to bottle Dr. Pepper made with sugar in a facility in Dublin, TX. No longer do it there but they still produce it elsewhere, although it has a limited distribution.

Fun fact I learned in a YouTube video. HFCS basically is composed of two types of sugar and real sugar in an acidic drink like Coke breaks down into those same two things, in about the same proportions, within about 3 weeks.

Drink it freshly bottled, or you're not accomplishing anything.

Mexican Coke has more salt, which may be why people think it tastes different.
