deathrey Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Orangina is an underrated drink, it's actually great and not stocked in enough places Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedTwoster Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 (edited) I managed to get my hands on this legendary drink (or legendary in the north east of Scotland, at least) which has been re-released after being discontinued in 2017. I’d not tried the original, so I’ve no idea how it compares, but it’s a kind of carbonated, fruity drink. I’m not really sure what to compare it to, but the closest I can think is like a fruitier version of Red Kola. It’s nice though, I’d buy it again. (that’s a google image search picture - it looks a bit more red than that in real life) Edited October 4 by RedTwoster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIDDUM_N_STYLE Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Tried the Tango drink based on the Ice Blasts today, the Raspberry one as it was 39p in Home Bargains, had a nice slightly sharp raspberry flavour with an apple aftertaste which would probably be more refreshing cold (HB are notorious for not putting drinks in the chillers in bigger stores unless it’s milk or ice coffee) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCJ Posted October 5 Share Posted October 5 Home Bargains are selling Fanta Grape at 99p a can imported from the States. Very sweet but still good. 8/10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAREBEAR LUVVA Posted October 19 Share Posted October 19 (edited) I tried Pepsi Max Electric today. Tastes of what a musty old charity shop smells like. It's fucking shite. Highly not recommended. I also bought a few cans of Mountain Dew Code Red and Voltage as well as a couple of cans of pineapple Fanta. These are genuinely my top three pops of all time (with Virgin Cola a close fourth), but the Mountain Dews are banned in the UK (something to do with one of the ingredients) and I've never seen pineapple Fanta for sale anywhere outside of America, so I'm fucking delighted to have found them. In a completely nondescript Premier corner shop, of all places! Edited October 19 by CAREBEAR LUVVA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted October 19 Paid Members Share Posted October 19 Yeah that Pepsi Electric is nasty stuff. I see a blue drink I expect it to taste a certain way. Usually with pop it’s either blue raspberry, blueberry or bubblegum. No. Pepsi decide the market needs a drink that tastes like washing up liquid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LCJ Posted October 20 Share Posted October 20 Also tried Pineapple Fanta the other day. A solid 8/10 but with it being a US import, like most US non-diet soft drinks, it contains high fructose corn syrup that puts the calories up to 180 a can.
