It’s no secret that I am a die-hard Coca-Cola lover and that this blog has been fueled by Coke for close to a decade now. I don’t have many vices — I don’t smoke or drink alcohol, and I don’t even drink coffee. I do, however, have one vice: Sugar-sweetened Coca-Cola. Coke fiends like myself know there are two ways to get HFCS-free Coca-Cola: Buy Cokes bottled outside the USA (Mexico, Canada) or purchase Kosher-for-Passover Coca-Cola, which is made with the original, sugar-based Coke formula.
Passover 2017 has begun, and Coca-Cola’s delicious Kosher-for-Passover Coke is back in stores again for 2017! Rejoice, fellow sugar-Coke lovers.
You can recognize kosher-for-Passover Coke in stores by the yellow caps on the 2-liter bottles. Look for it in the Kosher-for-Passover food section of your store, or do what I do each year: Ask your favorite supermarket to special-order you the quantity you’d like. I have been special-ordering a year’s supply of Kosher Coke from my local Jewel-Osco store each year for at least the past ten years.
Last week, I stopped in to place my 2017 Kosher Coke order. Over the weekend, my husband let me know that Jewel had called the house with a message: “Your elixir has arrived.” Mmm!
My local Jewel-Osco in Huntley has been so good about ordering this for me, year after year, and thankfully, they never question the large quantities of bottles I order each year too. If you cannot find yellow-capped Kosher-for-Passover Coca-Cola at your store, ask about placing a special order for it.
If you place a large order though, do your store a favor and pick it up on time after they call to say it’s in. Your staff will likely be navigating around your big cart of Cokes stashed behind the service counter until you come by to take it home, and your promptness in retrieving your order may just influence how willing your store is to place another large Coca-Cola order for you next year.

Could you post a picture of the ingredients? My daughter can’t have HFCS & is sensitive to a lot of ingredients but I’m wondering if this could be a special treat for her. She can’t have most fruits or vegetables so she can’t have juices.

Do you know if the individual glass bottles in the Hispanic section, usually about $1 each, are the same thing? I see this throughout the year.

Those are Mexican Cokes, also made with sugar vs. HFCS. (I love them too!) The difference is that the Kosher-for-Passover Coke is bottled in the USA, and it’s a little more cost-effective when you can buy a 2-liter for $1-$1.50 depending on Jewel’s sale price.

Don’t forget about the white capped Pepsi for Kosher Pepsi which is in stores now for those of you on the dark side!!!
Your order was big enough to take advantage of the triple dip wine deal on Chloe & a few other wines.
In fact, the wine display is in your pic of 20% off when you buy 6 bottles.
So the deal is:
Buy 6 bottles.
Get 20% off.
Use $25 off coupon on groceries. (see hang tags)
Send in MIR for $24. (see hang tags)
With the sale, you can find buy 6 bottles after the 20% off less than $49.00
Personally, I don’t like wine, but I do gift it away with deals like this where you come out ahead.

Kosher Coke junkie for some 30 years now, ever since moving to South FL. I have a Winn-Dixie in a predominantly Jewish neighborhood that is my pusher man, and I’ll be stocking up ASAP!

Ha! I LOVE it. I have often thought of my local Jewel store as my “Coke pusher” for many, many years now :)

So any super market could probably put in a special order for this Kosher Coke? I live in Upper Michigan and know someone who is trying to find this coke. I’ve never had it . Thanks
Coupon Maven says
Yes! It’s just a matter of having your store contact their Coca-Cola rep and order it in for you :) My store takes my request, calls their Coke supplier, and orders in whatever number of bottles I’ve asked for.
