/Sounds like "co" (as in "cocoa") + "ree" + "en" + "teh"/
Cheap, tacky, or low class. In Mexico and Colombia, calling someone or something corriente is saying it lacks quality, taste, or refinement. It can refer to a person with no manners, a poorly made product, or anything that just screams "bargain bin." It's a solid insult when aimed at a person.
"Esa tienda vende pura ropa corriente. -> That store only sells cheap, tacky clothes."
"No seas corriente, límpiate la boca con la servilleta. -> Don't be trashy, wipe your mouth with a napkin."

Agua de princesa
Forma chistosa y creativa de decirle a la cerveza. Es parte de la larga tradición mexicana de inventar sinónimos para la chela, como cheve, fría o helada.
