syrup Coke is always been the best, but I didn’t know that McDonald’s was the only people that had it now.
When I owned a bar I set that mfer up perfect and lived on coke.

And buy you a Mexican Coca Cola in a glass bottle and taste how good real sugar is versus high fructose corn syrup that they use in America.
Has nothing to do with what sugar is used, something called acid-catalyzed sucrose inversion means that using cane sugar (sucrose) in something like carbonated sodas (carbonic and phosphoric acid) the sucrose will invert into fructose and glucose at nearly the same ratio as HFCS.
Mexican coke has more salt in it, that's why you think it tastes better.

McDonald’s Coke products taste better than other places bc they’re the only ones that use a glycol system similar to a place serving draft beer where the beer has to travel from somewhere. The syrup is refrigerated, which is also unique, and it’s kept cool/fresher all the way to the dispenser. It’s a $100k system that other fast food places must not think is worth it.
I hate drinks out of the machines that Wendy's uses

If you prefer Mexican Coke it is either in your head or more likley the other difference in the formula, the same as liking Pepsi or RC more than Coke.
The first time I had a Mexican coke, I just grabbed the bottle and didn't pay attention to it being Mexican coke. I just like coke in a bottle. The second I took a sip I noticed a difference in taste. I describe it as "clean". There is a more "clean" taste to it. I thought it was because there was sugar in it instead of corn syrup, but maybe its not, but I know it taste different that.. American coke? Coke in a glass bottle taste different than if its in a cup, can, etc but Mexican coke in a glass bottle taste different than American coke in a glass bottle.

That video is complete B.S.
The Brix ratio for Coke bag in a box is 5 parts water to 1 part soda.
One box makes 3840 finished ounces and the major food chains cost per ounce is 1.5 cents.
There is nothing special about the equipment that they use either and they are all on bulk Co2 tanks.
McDonalds and Chic-fil-A managers are trained in adjusting the Brix to consistently pour a quality beverage
Barguns typically pour the worst quality drink and the Freestyle machines have been a costly disaster for Coke in general.

It definitely has a different flavor and I don't care for it at all. It's not the brix setting on the machine either.

Coke tastes better at McD’s because they use the same cloth from scrubbing toilets to clean the machine. You must be a shite-eating fatass

All I know is that first sip of a sprite at McDonald’s will have you seeing the world differently for a minute
