The Mexican Coke is made with real cane sugar (I used to work for Coca Cola). Most of the local mexican stores carry it.
The reason you see so much Pepsi here is that one of Pepsi's largest bottling operations in the US is near us (Orlando). They will nearly give the syrup away to keep local places serving their product. Same for Coca Cola.
And no, Pepsi is NOT OK - not if you like Coke. Pepsi just tastes way to syrupy and sweet. My favorite is Coke Zero. However - prior to joining Coca Cola, one of my favorite sodas was Diet Mountain Dew. Luckily, Coca Cola came out with Mello Yello Zero 9 years ago, and it's pretty close to Mountain Dew - way closer than Pepsi is to Coke.
