Yummy Breezer

Advantages: Great taste
Disadvantages: Easy to drink too much

...Since I first tried Bacardi Breezers, quite a few years ago, I've been addicted. My tastes have changed though - from Watermelon to Orange to Cranberry. Will it change again? I tried a Breezer because I drank Bacardi and thought it would make a nice change. Boy did it. I started on Watermelon which was very sweet (as most seem to be) and couldn't drink enough. What a bad mistake as it gets you very drunk even though you feel like you are drinking ...
...sweet tipples, I pull a face when I go back to a normal bacardi. BUT what's happening with the pubs (at least in my neck of the woods), many are stopping selling it and leaving me confused with regards an alternative. Can anybody out there suggest anything to try instead that's as yummy as a Breezer? And so to the advert... It's all about a cat who sneaks out late at night to go clubbing. He's more popular with the gorgeous models than the men ...

Review of Bacardi Breezer [TV Advertisement]

please beware of the judderman

Advantages: Erm.... it's cheap. :O,
Disadvantages: ...tastes cat pee and makes your tongue feel like sandpaper!

I think that Metz must be one of the most cringe-worthy drinks on the market. When it first came out, I admit I thought it was wonderful... but now it's in competition with all those new alcopops on sale, it really cant beat it's competitors. In terms of price, it is quite cheap (although Reef and Hooch are even cheaper), although being at uni, drinks are always quite cheap anyway. Considering how bad it tastes though (something mixed between dodgy ...
...tastier! They've now introduced Metz 'Still' (sounds and is, extremely vile) and basically tastes like the original Metz after it has sat on the side for a few days! Please do not attempt to drink it. Metz 'Black' has the addition of blackcurrent and must be my preferred flavour out the bunch. The tangy blackcurrent lamely succeeds in hiding some of the original Metz flavour. My overall opinion of Metz is that although I wouldn't chose to buy it ...

LIE,IT'S OK

Advantages: Funny
Disadvantages: Same idea used constantly

...over and over again. Smirnoff Ice, as clear as you're conscience is the selling logo and the adverts follow this. The most recent one involves the same bloke that's in all of them going out parting and instead of going home goes back to where he works, falling asleep on the computer.In the morning he is awoken by his boss and the promice of a pay rise for working late again. RESULT!!Similar to this is the bloke going to the supermarket from partying, ...
...went out to buy nice things for her brekkie. I must say that i prefer the one where the blokie sees his best friends mother and realises he slept with her, saying after a long pause, oh, i thought it was you're sister! As you can see these adverts stick in my mind as everyone wants to get away with things and be in peoples good books.A slight lie isn't really wrong and so does no harm. I think these advert layouts will carry on for some time and ...

Imagine you are in the Carribean

Advantages: colourful and non carbonated
Disadvantages: not a large enough bottle

I regularly drink these alcopop drinks and when this product was launched I was delighted to find that it was not carbonated as this tends to have a detrimental effect on the taste kick that you get. I had seen the advertisements and these tempted me to try the product. to be honest I was expecting it to be much like the other products on the market. I was, however very surprised when I tried it because it tasted very fresh and didn't have that synthetic ...
...but obviously there was somewhat of a kick in it which I warn you now doesn't take effect until you have had several and attemot the trip to the pub toilets. The bottle was very simple and because it is clear glass with no plastic sleeve you actually see wht you are drinking which is always a bonus. I didn't get that full feeling after drinking a few of them because it was not fizzy and I am sure this is a good marketing ploy to encourage further ...

Latin Spirit In Every One

Advantages: Cute cat, I can remember the product after the advert!
Disadvantages: The drink is ummmm... ugh!

...fruity alcopop we call the Bacardi Breezer but instead about the adverts that portray it to the country. I'm sure we have all seen the adverts in question, the cat that seems to like living the high life. It revolves around a grey cat with naturally sleek grey coat and shining eyes (they always choose good looking models for ads, and I guess its the same when they choose a pussy ;-)). The cat is admittedly cute, but it also has a seemingly strange ...
...itself. The cat then sneaks out after dinner with its owner and goes out clubbing, dancing on its hind legs before returning home to the caption 'Latin Spirit in every one.' Hardly riveting stuff although the cuteness factor does make it somewhat more bearable. The attempt at humour involves a lady saying 'you've been out catching birds again' when the cat (presumably male?) returns home. Whilst this is worthy of a grin when you first hear it, it ...
