For what it's worth, I'm told that Kosher Coke and Pepsi are made with real sugar. It seems that Orthodox Jews are forbidden to consume grain during Passover, and corn syrup qualifies (that being-made-from-corn thing). Several sources have told me to check supermarkets as Passover approaches, though I haven't found it yet; it should have a differently-colored cap and some symbol or letters on it to signify its kosher nature. Only available at a certain time of the year, though, so stock up if you find it.
Failing that, check your local Mexican groceries (and by that I mean _real_ Mexican groceries, not the Ethnic Foods section at Wegmans or Acme) and look for Coke in glass bottles, which is often the pure-sugar variety that's all the rage in Mexico and Texas.
Failing THAT, go to Trader Joe's and get Boylan's Cane Cola as a substitute.
