One of the most important ingredients is the primary sweetener—in the U.S. and certain other areas, high-fructose corn syrup; in Latin America and Asia, predominantly liquefied cane sugar—which is measured in percent sugar by mass on the “Brix” concentration scale. For each flavor that a carbonated beverage producer m
