La Casera in the USA?

I've been lurking, reading posts for several months, and have found so much useful information. I'm hoping for some more. I was in Spain for a few weeks, traveling primarily in Southern Spain. While traveling I acquired quite a taste for La Casera--that magical bubbly drink. Now back in the States, Florida in particuliar, I find myself craving it. Does anyone sell this stuff stateside. I noticed Tienda.com sells a pricey collector's version (currently out of stock), but I could truly use good source. BTW, I'm in love with Spain, the culture, and the dance!! Plan to go back, maybe in April to Sevilla for the Festival. [ 11-30-2001: Message edited by: MadridMan ]

Welcom Shula, if you're a Spain lover, you're in the right place!
I've been trying to find somewhere that sells Fanta limon to no avail, but if you do find la casera, let me know!
Bienvenida y hasta la proxima!

As a matter of fact, there is a website, which is currently down, at www.lacasera.es . And no, this isn't one of my phony sites...check all the great beverages at www.juerga.com/bebidas/bebidas.cfm . That last URL doesn't connect, but if you go to Google and type this in: "la casera" +bebida, you'll get a link to www.juerga.com's bebida section. My dad spent five weeks in Spain with me in 1992 and smuggled a case of casera bottles back in his suitcase! It's an enchanting beverage to many! [ 11-30-2001: Message edited by: MadridMan ]

CaliBasco, that second URL did work, but only after I edited your posting so that there was a space between the end of your URL and your period. Here on the message board, no syntax can be at the immediate end of the URLs or it screws up the link. (Note: if you require syntax at the end of your URLS you can do so using the ADD URL functions with the buttons below the editor upon entering your message)

Hi Laduque, Might I ask, who makes Sierra Mist? The last time I had la Casera was in So Beach at one of the sidewalk cafes and I was delighted with the taste, but I did not find it in the grocery stores there. Gracias Booklady - Who appreciates a refreshing drink!

Where in South Beach? I might look it up the next time I have a show or workshop in Miami--maybe I can bribe the bartender

I'll have to try the Sierra Mist. I've been making my own versions (nothing compares) but have found 1/2 7-up 1/2 club soda comes kinda close. British lemonade is also another option.

I always enjoyed a splash of La Casera in a glass of vino corriente. I've tried substitues like "Sprite" 7-Up, etc. But they're always too cloying. It would be helfpul to find an affordable source in the USA. La Tienda is generally overpriced on most things. Cantabene
