Pepsi Throwback

[bluedog]

Does anyone know if this is coming to the GTA (and or the similar coke product?). I do not react well to corn syrup, so am interested in these cane sugar based versions of coke and pepsi...just curious if there's any difference in taste with the icky modern product.

To revive an old thread. As of this writing Pepsi throwback is still available in the US. also i recieved an email from pepsi stating..

I seen and bought my very first Pepsi Throwback this afternoon.
Zehrs on Ottawa Street in Kitchener has it in the pop cooler only. From what I seen, they only sell it as single bottles.

i hope this isn't too far for a bump, but has anyone has had any luck with this in the GTA?

Pepsi Throwback is not available in Canada. It was sold in the US for a limited time only I believe Pepsi stopped producing it in February 2010. I purchased mine from Wegmans on my last trip to the States. When my stock ran out I found Boylan’s Cola made with cane sugar—it actually works very well for me as a mixer or just straight. Whole Foods sells it for $1.99 a bottle but you can probably find it elsewhere a bit cheaper.
Others on here have suggested Mexican Coke which can be found in some Latin stores in Kensington market.

Boylan's Cola is also available at most Longos and Garden Basket locations. I believe it is priced at $1.69.

Many flavours of Boylan are available at Sobey's for $1.50 a bottle.

You can check if any stores are still selling Passover Coke, or I think you can get Mexican Coke in Kensington.

I haven't seen Throwback up here yet.

The difference is that it's crisper, no slimy aftertaste that corn syrup leaves.

I had forgotten about the passover stuff...and yeah thats what I was hoping re:taste. Thanks for the tip

Perola's will have mexican coke and sometimes pepsi in single serving glass bottles.
