You can actually buy Squirt at Publix and Kroger which is the most common grapefruit soda used in Mexico to make that drink.

They tend to use Jarritos Grapefruit soda more often... atleast the Mexican restaurants I was in. I'm sure it's all the same sugar carbonation though.

Which artificial additives does Herradura use?

[@jimklemens5018]

Fever Tree isn’t even close to Jarritos.

The basil is really weird.
