Cusco here must be twinned with downtown Seoul as 9 out of 10 cars is a Korean Daewoo. Of those 9 out of 10 probably 8 are taxis so the traffic here is on a par with India for craziness. Taxi meters are also non-existent so haggling for each fare is required.
As for the local soft drinks you normally expect a local variation on the standard cola, lemonade, or orange. Here in Peru they are the proud owners of Inca Kola, established 1935, and now owned by the Coca-Cola Company. What is Inca Kola? Well unique that is for sure. A flurescent yellow drink which smells and tastes of bubblegum from my youth. (All that was missing was a pack of football cards stuck to the gum.) Most probably laden with sugar and additives and quite sickly.
PS: I have yet to find the apostrophe here on this Spanish keyboard so this may be a more formal sounding post than usual!!
