Merge
This, and kalimotxo, and motxo, should be merged. I'm not sure whether kalimotxo or calimocho is the better title, since neither is common in English. Kalimotxo is probably earlier, calimocho more common. -- Jmabel | Talk 23:25, Dec 15, 2004 (UTC)

- daruma "wins" but the original rendering is still bodhidharma, and thus is reflected in the wikipedia entries. --81.39.14.241 (talk) 14:11, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
Kalimotxo
If it is up for debate, its not a kalimotxo unless you drink it in the Basque region.
The word Kalimotxo was the first to name the drink. It cames from Basque, and can be heard in a 70's basque punk-rock song called Gorkalimotxo (which mixes Gorka (basque name for George) and Kalimotxo (the drink) about a man who drinks too many kalimotxo. Through the years, the spaniards have adopted the term, and they now write (not always) with the spanish ortography, but it's a later term.
File under...
This should be under Kalimotxo, since it started as a basque word and it is written with a spanish spelling just in parts of spanish speaking spain. As an English speaker, I use the original spelling, not the spanish bastardization of the spelling.
- I agree on filing under 'Kalimotxo'. It seems more correct to me. I had never heard of the spelling 'calimocho', either (I live in Italy) 213.140.21.231 10:32, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
- Well, not that there exists some "non-spanish speaking Spain"... Spanish speaking Spain is... all of Spain. But as you said, in Spanish it's spelled Calimocho, and so I would say it's the more common form. I don't know if it's popular in Italy, or in the UK, anyway... --euyyn 07:56, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
- correct. there's nothing such a a "non-spanish speaking spain", but there are more languages in spain other than spanish. the word may be a spanish word (geografically), but linguistically it most certainly is a basque word, not a spanish one. the article should be filed under kalimotxo --81.39.14.241 (talk) 13:57, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
- It's unknown in the UK. I was introduced to it by some spanish housemates when they threw a party one time, but it took some convincing to get any of us English to even try it. --VinceBowdren 00:00, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
This stuff is completely foul and repulsive. The wine they use is so bad that it's a waste of perfectly good Coke to mix it with that. (Personal experience, so not acceptable for Wikipedia, I know, but in a Bilbao semi-punk pseudo-alienated-youth bar I ordered one, knowing what it was, just because that's what everyone else was asking for.) It's drunk all over Spain, almost always by wannabe radical kids under about age 20, just because Coke and wine are so cheap. In Catalonia it's more common to see kids on the street drinking cheap vodka mixed with Coke or Fanta out of the two liter bottles, rather than calimochos. A mixture of one part cheap but not dreadful rose wine, one part orange juice, and one part Fanta lemon, over ice, is a refreshing pseudo-sangria for the summer. Not alcoholic enough for the teenagers, though. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.33.158.121 (talk) 13:36, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

4 L of liquid cannot fit in a 2 L bottle
"An entire two liter bottle of Coca-Cola and two liters of wine are emptied into a plastic shopping bag. Once the concoction is mixed in the bag, the bag is squeezed tightly around the rim of the two liter Coca-Cola bottle and the contents of the bag are poured into the bottle."
