Wife lives her Run N Coke but must have the Coke Light to make it just right. Anyone know of Bars that stock it?

Thanks!

Diet Coke, called Coca-Cola Light in some countries, is a sugar-free soft drink produced and distributed by The Coca-Cola Company. It was first introduced in the United States on August 9, 1982,[1] as the first new brand since 1886 to use the Coca-Cola trademark. The product quickly overtook the soft drink Tab in sales.


Sorry can't answer this one ...
But, I had to google "Coke Light " as I've never heard of it ... Since 1982 ... guess I live under a rock
I guess we call it Diet Coke

Not to be confused with Coke Zero?

The real challenge for my Cuba Libré is DECAF Diet Coke! THAT is tough to find. That's why I stick to rum punch! Everybody has rum punch!

(Decaf coffee is tough to come by come to think of it, but you can get Jamaican Mountain Decaf at the wholesalers .... found it the day before we left in July! Good stuff! Long gold bag.) .... but I digress ....

Decafe Diet coke is what I drink in my mixed drinks at home but I have never had it anyplace in Negril!!

Coke Light is the bomb, I drink Diet Coke at home, but I think Coke Light tastes better......or maybe surroundings enhance flavor?

There was a Coke Light shortage in Negril a couple of weeks ago, went to Mikey's, Shamrock, Value Master, Myrna's, and L&M, all were out. When the truck went through it didn't have any for some reason. All was well a couple of days and a Diet Pepsi later.

Also begs the question, why are soft drinks almost half the price as at home?

Diet Pepsi seems more common in Negril than Diet Coke or Coke 'Light".
On an island with a huge crop of cane sugar, drinks tend to contain lots of that; even orange juice is often sweetened with sugar.
Maybe the abundance of that ingredient makes soft drinks cheaper or perhaps the median income of the population dictates a lower price.
Cell Phones are ridiculously cheap by North American standards. A smaller "grid" may be part of the reason for that but everyone and their brother seems to have a cellie.

Diet Coke (Coke light) is just as readily available as coca cola in JA, in my opinion.
