Jarritos originated in 1950 and is a popular brand of soft drink in Mexico. The drink is naturally flavored and one of the few soft drinks in the U.S. containing actual  sugar cane rather than the controversial high fructose corn syrup. The drink comes in an array of traditional  Mexican flavors including: Tamarind,  Mandarin, Fruit Punch, Jamaica, Lime, Toronja, Guava, Pineapple,  Strawberry, Mango,  and Lemon-Lime. I enjoy supporting Latino-made products.
