Here's a picture of the most recent release of The Coca-Cola Company here in Mexico... Ciel Naturae... a low calorie fruit beverage with moderated carbonation and comes in three flavors: Jamaica, Peach and Lemon... looks tasty!

For those who saw the movie "Nacho Libre" and loved Sister Encarnación (mexican actress Ana de la Reguera) you'll like this ad because she appears on it...

Ana de la Reguera is gorgeous! This should be worth a look. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Ciel is the best tasing bottled water I have ever had. I don't know why, but I love it. I will have to look for their flavored waters when I am down there in Mexico next month.

Ron, if you visit a supermarket in Mexico, you'll find Ciel in different versions:

Regular Ciel water.

Ciel Mineralizada: Mineral Seltzer Water, but only few states sell this product. (Aguascalientes, Mexico City, San Luis Potosi, Michoacan, Veracruz, Guanajuato, Puebla, Coahuila (except Monclova and Saltillo cities), Durango, Zacatecas, Jalisco, Colima, Nayarit and Hidalgo.)

Ciel Aquarius that is a calorie-free flavored water that comes in three flavors: grapefruit, jamaica and lemon.

Ciel Dasani (nothing similar to the US Dasani version) that is water with fiber and with vitamins for the improvement of the skin and the digestion and comes in four flavors: cucumber-lemon, tangerine, grapefruit and carrot-papaya (I only recommend the tangerine one in this line)

and Ciel Naturae... calorie free, low carbonated water in three flavors: Peach, Strawberry and Lemon...

Oh, so Ciel Dasani is like the old Dasani Nutriwater here in the US.

I actually liked the Pear Cucumber flavor. It was released in the US in 2002, and quickly disappeared (around the same time Pepsi had Aquafina Essentials).

It was a much more limited release than Essentials, though. I found it around Cincinnati, OH.

Sort of... although that Wild Berry flavor sounds good!

The weird thing is that Ciel Dasani has been on sale for almost a year and it's still available at supermarkets... I wonder why Dasani Nutriwater didn't had the same luck...

I think it was one of those things that was... before it's time? I am sure it would do better these days (and a name change wouldn't hurt, either).

Today Ciel Naturae arrived at Aguascalientes!

and as you can see in the first post... I made some corrections: one, actually there's no Strawberry flavor... it's Jamaica flavor; and two: it comes in two sizes: 500 ml and 1 liter... not 600 ml. The weird thing is that at the moment this product is not available at supermarkets... only at OXXO convenience stores and grocery stores...

At this moment I just tried the peach flavor and it's really good! in fact tastes like the mexican Fanta peach but less sweet... and I saw the ingredients list and I noticed that contains Sucralose!... so that means that Ciel Naturae is the one and only mexican drink with sucralose made by The Coca-Cola Company.
