American multinational soft drink manufacturer Pepsico started a line of premium soft drinks for use in cocktails, called 1893.

So far, as defined by Wikipedia, all the beverages are โ€œtotally naturalโ€, produced under fair trade rules, and include Original Cola, Ginger Cola, Black Currant Cola, and Citrus Cola.

Now, the company has also surprised us with a video explaining how to make kalimotxo using their 1893 Original Cola.

Still from the video where Pepsi explains how to make โ€˜kalimotxoโ€™ with 1893 Original

The truth is that this is not the first time weโ€™ve seen Americans interested in this Basque cocktail.  For example, in 2013, the New York Times published a guide on how to correctly make it, and in 2015, also in the US, a new product called Motxo was launched: kalimotxo in a bottle.

Weโ€™ll leave you with the video Pepsi has posted on their Twitter feed explaining the โ€œsecretsโ€ of a good kalimotxo.
