ToniCol is a naturally flavoured vanilla soft drink manufactured in Mexico.
The name ToniCol comes from the man who invented its formula: Antonio Espinosa de los Montero from Rosario, Sinaloa, around 1870.
It is a blend of the shortened form of his first name "Toni" and the drink "Cola", even though ToniCol is not strictly speaking a cola but is actually a cream soda due to its vanilla flavour.
The soft drink's recipe calls for almost all-natural ingredients, including "concentrated natural vanilla extract", citric acid, sodium benzoate as well as sugar rather than corn syrup.
ToniCol has now also released a "diet" formulation which contains Splenda (sucralose) in lieu of natural sugar.
