7-Up

Dontcha just hate it when you stick your money in a vending machine only to suddenly notice the almost itsy-bitsy, totty wee light that tells you that your favoured choice of (in this case, soft drink) is no longer available? Well let's face it, nobody in their right mind is going to opt for 7UP if there's Irn Bru to be had...or even Coke/Pepsi/Fanta etc. Still, at least it's wet, and if the machine isn't completely goosed, cold. Besides, have you ...
...of the blurry machine? It's far, far easier to get troops out of Iran...oops, Iraq. So what do you get for your hard earned 50p? You gets a can of lime and lemon flavoured, sugar loaded, carbonated water, that's what you gets. Y'know, for years I thought 7UP was just a fancy type of lemonade. I didn't even know there was lime in it. I mean, I knew there was something else apart from just lemon flavour...something that gave it a nasty tang that ...

Review of 7-Up

...is a review on the 7-Up Regular drink. Occasionally, especially in summer, I enjoy a cool soft drink. One of my favourites is _7-Up_. Gasp! Why 7-Up? It doesn't tend to be that fashionable these days. Well, it is partly the taste and partly because of what it has in it. As far as _fizzy_ soft drinks go, I think it is quite a healthy choice. Today, I was quite pleased to see that they were on special offer at _Instore_. To be quite honest I think ...
...now called 7-Up. _The 7-Up Regular contains - _ NO preservatives NO colouring NO caffeine NO aspartame You can now buy a _7-Up Free_ that does not contain any sugar, so I would guess that it has the artificial sweeteners. In the United States the rights of the brand are held by the Dr. Pepper Snapple Group and by PepsiCo in the rest of the world. Their target market is for adults from the ages of 25 - 49 (who comes up with these figures?). ...

Review of 7-Up

It just shows how our taste buds change as we grow older (well mine anyway), as a young boy I always thought of 7Up as a lemonade. Looking back it was partly my fault as I never looked closely at the can and therefore what it in fact is. That being a Lemon and Lime flavoured soft drink. I am no longer that little chap who enjoyed this and many other drinks by throwing them down my throat quicker than some premiership strikers fall in the penalty ...
...pass my taste buds. Maybe a sign of old age. 7Up as I said is a Lemon and Lime flavoured soft drink, the taste of lime is present although it is not overpowering it does mask the lemon. The somewhat drier taste of lime (a taste that causes my mouth to salivate freely) is present, I don't know how I missed this when I was younger. However it is a drink that really does quench the thirst. A lot of fizzy drinks tend to leave me either feeling thirsty ...

Review of 7-Up

Still going through the Morrison's offer pop, still with 3 to try (annoyingly that'll mean I need to buy 4 bottles) 7UP (this review), Lilt, and Tango (Orange flavour), with this being the first I'll be honest I'm kinda up for this one. 7Up is the Britvic rival to the Coca-Cola “Sprite” drink, which is a direct competitor as they are both “Lemon and Lime flavoured” fizzy drinks. This drink comes in an “All Green” uniform (or bottle to the uninitiated), ...
...and green label. A rather attractive bottle design, though it doesn't make the recognising of the colour of the drink difficult (so lets assume it's transparent just to make life easier). Whilst Sprite was a relative disappointment, leading me into drinking the glorious and much cheaper Morrison's branded Lemonade. I'm privately hoping 7UP won't disappoint in the same way as an over priced and very average drink. As lets be honest, with Coca-Cola ...

Review of 7-Up

Ever since I was little my family has had lemonade and I've always had it when my tummy feels a little upset. Since having a stomach bug last summer this seems to happen quite often so I like to have a 500ml bottle with me when I'm out and about. When I went to Tesco today I expected to see only Sprite in the chiller, but to my delight next to this was 7up. I have a very vague, fond memory of drinking 7up as a child, and my brothers drawing cartoons ...
...bottles. I remember it being pretty much the only 'young' commercialised lemonade brand at around 1996...did Sprite even exist then? I don't know. Infact, 7up is a different type of lemonade as it is actually lemon and lime flavoured. I had never really paid much attention to this or noticed it until now. PACKAGING ----------------- The 500ml bottle is made of dark green plastic which is dimpled, with a smooth spiral going round it. This given ...

Review of 7-Up

~Water!~ Delving into my fridge after a de-hydrating night of heavy drinking, I am pleased to discover the glowing green shimmer of a cool bottle of 7up, nestled between two lettuces on the bottom shelf of my fridge. “To hell with the water” I thought as I reached for the bottle. ~Focus~ Before I opened the bottle to quench my lustful thirst, I held it in my hands observing the small pearls of water magnifying the different shades of green on ...
...being on a television advert, I rotated the bottle. The label displayed a large red dot between a “7" and an “up”. My thirst was undescribable. I could drink “7" “down” in “7" seconds given the chance. ~Quick Release~ I began to unscrew the bottle, with the little strength I had left from my exhausting night. The bottle fizzed and the gas was released, with the aromatic smell of lemon and lime. My nose told my mouth the good news of what to expect. ...

Review of 7-Up

The last few days I've not been out very far as I've been feeling a bit poorly with a chest infection. But this morning I had an appointment with the Doctor and on the way stopped off at the shop for a drink. For some reason my mouth felt like the bottom of a bird cage. It could be that I didn't have a cup of tea first thing! Anyway, as I hadn't had a 7UP for such a long time I thought this is what I would buy. PACKAGING <><><><><> I paid just ...
...Some places I've been in they charge around the 80p mark which is expensive for a can of drink! The tin can is predominantly lime green in colour with the 7UP name plastered all across the can. You will find the ingredients and nutritional information on the can, along with the contact details and the little recyle symbol on the bottom (recycling is very important!). Also under the nutritional information is the Guideline Daily Amount for women ...

Review of 7-Up

...the list goes on, with 7-up also coming next...but what is it that clearly distinguishes 7-up from the others? Well, some would argue that there IS no clear difference from it's main similarity rival, the more succesful Sprite by the coca cola company, and I too would argue that they are both very similar, although I am pretty confident that I would be able to take, and pass the sprite - 7-up test...although I have never taken it. Another product ...
...ther is, in one group, 7-up and Sprite, and in another group, mountain dew. But is Sprite yet another attempt to gain the fickle publics money through a worn - out cliche? I think that yes, it is, although to be honest I like the taste of 7-up, so they have my vote! But then I always was one to fall for those chemically made factory produced drinks with pathetic naziistic propaganda style advertisig ploys. Count me in! But I forget, this is not ...

Review of 7-Up

No, not quite magnificent, but do you know something… this drink is pretty damn nice. Here is a little poem for this fine drink: Oh 7-Up, you are like a forgotten pup, Let me take you in my arms, And have a sup Of your fine tasting drink, me thinks. Lemon and Lime, so fine in deed. Of your taste, my taste buds need. That’s enough. I rediscovered this soft drink recently and the taste both enraptures and enthrals the taste buds ...
...or too thick and syrupy. In fact it is just right. So, what do you get? You can pay around fifty pence max for 7 Up, but can also get four for a pound in some bargain shops. The size on can is the standard 330ml. It is packaged in it famous green with red and white emblem and the contents are described as being a lime and lemon beverage. The ingredients include carbonated water, sugar, lots of Es and flavourings. Some more useful information: ...

Review of 7-Up

Flavour: 7-UP is one of these drinks released into a soft drinks market which just could not go wrong. Lemon is always a taste preferred by many for its refreshing qualities, 7-UP does not use what I would call a cheap ‘lemon sherbert’ sweet taste; instead it has a fresh zesty taste. This zingy drink is very much along the lines of the conventional lemonade but is still my preferred tipple after a long walk on a hot day. Natural: More ...
...naturally? I would not advertise 7-UP as being a perfect replacement for water, but I would say it is a good way of weaning children off drinks with colourants, with all those E-numbers. Even for adults trying to drink 8 glasses of water it can be a little bland, to a certain extent you could liven it up with 7-UP and not jeopardize totally your need for something healthy. Health: 7-UP is one of those drinks to contain a source of phenylanine, ...

Review of 7-Up

OK I admit it I'm bored, I've had 4 days off work and due to my spending earlier in the month I couldn't afford to go back to my parents (well I could get there, but coming back would be a problem with no petrol in the car- believe me i considered it). So looking around my room while considering the idea of tidying it and cleaning it, well thats just silly, so after moving some bags from my shopping trip last week (yeah I know lazy) I found the bags ...
...bottles of 7up, as it was on offer at the Londis in the village. Ok so i know the village convenience store is not as cheap as the supermarket but they cost me £1.50 for the two so not too bad, but I would normally wait until I do my main shopping before buying this kind of thing where it would be cheaper, but as people may know about me my only loyalty is to the vodka, the dilutant is whatever was cheapest at the time. So the bottle itself is a ...

Review of 7-Up

...think most people know what 7-up is. For those of you who do not know, it is a lemon and lime, clear fizzy drink. The Packaging: You can buy 7-up in loads of different quantities. You can get the normal size cans (330ml), a small plastic bottle (500ml) and a large bottle (2ltr). The can it comes in is like most other cans!! I don't particularly like the cans for two reasons. Firstly once you have opened it you have to drink it all as there is no ...
...is open a bottle of 7-up and gulp it down! As it is going down your throat you feel your whole body is thouherly refreshed. I think the manufacture has got this drink just right. It is not too fizzy and not too sweet. The only downside about this drink is that it has so much sugar in it. If you drink it too regularly I am sure your teeth will rot. But it is a great treat every now and then. Overall: I would highly recommend this drink to all types ...

Review of 7-Up

7up has been a drink I grew up with and the FIDO made me like it. For over a decade FIDO has been the 7up remarkable figure and I love the arts behind FIDO.Who is fido? Fido is a white funny figure with long-standing hairs who is always in short knickers but I the recent advertisements he is now on trousers, he helps in the 7up advertisements and I think that you will love this guy when you see him.7up is a lime and lemon flavored soft drink similar ...
...have that strong aroma smell and always in green can and bottle. For many years I have been trying to find the similarities between 7up and sprite and I found that their similarities is not that much because Sprite has a more sugary taste and not much lime and lemon flavor like 7up.The coluorless transparent carbonated soft drink also serves as an energy provider especially when tired and restricts the saliva secretion by keeping the mouth dry. The ...

Review of 7-Up

Overview In this review im going to be referring to a standard 500ml bottle of regular &up Seen as I can't find any diet &up anyway I guess I thought I would do this one Flavour It has a strong taste of both lemon and lime and unlike many fizzy drinks it doesn't have too much fizz in it so many people can drink it as well, this is probably one of the things that drew me into this particular brand. However due to this taste and lack of fizzyness ...

Review of 7-Up

...give it a go! 7-up is an old hand in the drinks business and over the years has tweaked and changed the taste. I chose to write about it now because the taste is at its best! After a long hard day at work, school or a recreational activity you need to quench your need for a drink and in my view 7-up has to be the best way to do so. It is roughly 50p for a regular can and a couple of pounds for a litre bottle which is hardly going to put a huge ...
...them over in my view of taste. 7-up is also endorsed by extreme sports organisations and is associated with the youth culture. However this is not quite true, as Coke is a very popular drink for all ages, 7-up is its main rivals and appeals to all ages, especially me! ...
