I’ve heard about the Inka Kola too. Plus, they featured it on “Amazing Race”. I forgot the episode. Great info! Cheers!

It’s toasty here at my house. 🙂

I drank coca tea for altitude sickness. I just have an issue with ingesting something that likes like windshield wiper detergent. But I recognize I am an oddball and shun most soft drinks for sugar and their calcium-stripping fizzy qualities.

No idea where the Jesus name came from. But I can tell you that particularly the northern part of Brazil is equivalent to the Bible belt in the US so it doesn’t surprise me. I loved the way the bottles looked. Kids went nuts over them since the color is like cotton candy. Tchau!

I think the thing with Inca Cola is you need to be suffering from altitude sickness. For some reason it really helped us.
Jesus juice! Well I cannot imagine. Is it a replacement for the wine at church?

Freezing and raining constantly here. Hope your central heating is doing it’s job

In reply to Matt. It's called Jesus. It is Guaraná from the northern Brazilian state of Maranhao. Tastes like bubblegum. I couldn't down it. Inka Kola I don't get it but I know the fans are devoted like yourself. :) Stay warm in Colchagua.

Is that drink called “FESUS” or is that what the flavour is?

Inca Cola LOVE it. Spent two weeks in Peru once looking for my dead sister. Never found her, but discovered this drink. Available in NY now as well.
