TLDR; Mexican Coke is sweetened with sugarcane, but the acid in the soda splits sucrose into glucose and fructose. So you basically end up with a drink that has similar chemical sweeteners to high fructose corn syrup.
Also, Mexican coke probably tastes better because it as a shit of glucose and fructose, not because you’re tasting sucrose.
I’ve definitely experienced this. Not so much with coke, which I don’t care much for either way, but lemonade. Lemonade out of a glass bottle is top tier, followed by the post-mix syrup served at bars. Out of a can though is just not as nice. I don’t care if there’s no rational reason for that to be the case (the post-mix at least might be a different recipe, but Sprite in a glass is surely the same as Sprite in a can).
Yeah, I bet that the glass works for some folks. My friends and I played with some blind tastes test, and some people couldn’t tell the difference, and other could tell 100% of the time with ease.
My guess is that the taste difference is due to the fact that Mexican Coke has so much glucose that it easily throws a OTC glucose monitor into an overload error state.

I bet the glass bottle also has a subjective effect.

Diabetes is one of the top killers in Mexico, so that does track.
It makes me wonder if Coke is desperately inventing some kind of chemical stabilizer that’ll usher in a whole new health problem.
It’s just basic, easily reproducible, chemistry. Not some sort of conspiracy.
