Twelve fluid ounce cans of Coca Cola or Pepsi is what we are accustomed to finding on shelves - at least throughout Virginia. Maybe throughout the entire United States. And twelve fluid ounces is 355 mL (yes, the L is not lowercase).
But I discovered these little things in Bluefields on a recent trip. Actually they're available in the airports in Managua which is pretty much the only place I am when I'm in Nicaragua if I'm not in the southern autonomous region.
Not just the colas come in these small bottles. You can also find Lipton tea and some of the Fantas.
These are nice. Easier to carry and less to drink. Plastic vs aluminum? Always a debate.
And they're inexpensive. The number on the cap in the second photo below is 16, not 76....that's the price. Sixteen cordoba. Today the exchange rate is 36.37 Nicaraguan cordoba to $1 U.S. dollar. The math is pleasant.
Can't find these little bottles anywhere in my Virginia city.
Yet.
