Add a word/Sounds like "reh" (as in "red") + "FREHS" (as in "fresh") + "koh" (as in "coat")/
Meaning
A carbonated, sweetened soft drink like Coca-Cola, Fanta, or Pepsi. In Mexico, ordering a "refresco" is as natural as breathing: the country has one of the highest soda consumption rates in the world, and no family meal is truly complete without the two-liter bottle on the table.
Examples
“Quiero un refresco de toronja bien frío, por favor.”
“I want a really cold grapefruit soda, please.”
“Los refrescos tienen demasiado azúcar, pero con los tacos entran solos.”
“Sodas have way too much sugar, but with tacos they just go down on their own.”
