Squashes & Cordials

By Royal Appointment-Robinsons Blackcurrant Squash

Advantages: Refreshing and versatile
Disadvantages: none

...One item she brought was Robinsons apple and blackcurrant, no added sugar, squash. She was quite right because although we had the orange squash, since every one has all ways said they didn't like blackcurrant, we didn't have this at home. So she did us all a favour because we all ended up liking it and I will probably be buying it again. ○◊○ Who are Robinsons? ○◊○ The company started as Robinson & Belville in ...
...High Juice, Barley Water and Robinsons for Milk. ○◊○ The choices ○◊○ The flavours in this squash range are orange & pineapple, orange, summer fruits, lemon and the flavour I am reviewing here apple & blackcurrant.

Summer fruit dream

Disadvantages: Really bright colour stains light clothes

Robinsons summer fruits is my new favourite diluting juice. I recently picked up a bottle of this at my local shop as they had ran out of my usual fave which was Robinson orange and pineapple. I selected the summer fruits flavour as it looked tasty, was a interesting pink colour and was the only sugar free alternative that the store had available. PACKAGING I purchased a 2 Litre bottle of summer fruits but like the rest of the robinsons range ...

Review of Robinsons Special R Summer Fruits

Ribena... The best blackcurrant juice around!!!

Advantages: Great taste, full of flavour, Good for Vitamin C, helps me get through a sore throat!
Disadvantages: The cost compared to other brand, sugar content

...me a cup of hot Ribena with a slice of lemon on it, telling me it would help my throat to feel better. Some years later and living in my own place, if ever I am feeling low with a sore throat I am soon down to my local shop to buy myself a bottle of Ribena to make myself feel better and relive those childhood memories! I have to admit that I really like Ribena, especially hot Ribena even though some people look at me funny when I say that as they ...
...it. The bottle has the Ribena logo on the front, which is red in colour and quite bold. The paper label, which sits at the top of the bottle, has a picture of some blackcurrants on. The front of the label also tells you that the product contains Vitamin C. The back of the bottle gives you instructions on how to dilute the product. It is very simple, 1 part Ribena to 3 parts water to make your drink. It may sound technical but in my opinion it is ...

Review of Ribena Original Seriously Good Blackcurrant

Vimto Cordial, I have been turned!!!

Advantages: Cheaper, doesn't go flat, just as tasty!
Disadvantages: You have to mix it yourself and could make it too weak or with too much cordial!

VIMTO CORDIAL I love Vimto, it is and always has been (well since I can remember) my favourite soft drink. Up until now I have always bought the pop variety of the drink, the 2lt version, which costs around £2 a bottle depending where you get it, and if there are any offers on. But last time I went shopping I saw the cordial. Vimto cordial has been around for years, and when my mum and dad bought it at home, I avoided it like the plague, I ...
...flat and nasty as normal Vimto would do if it was left for a month. And I have had the equivelent of 2 bottles of the drink already, as not much of the cordial is needed in a half pint glass. So it's already worked out much cheaper than it would have normally cost. All in all, if you're a big fan of Vimto, and usually spend £2 per bottle of the fizzy stuff, then I definitely suggest you try doing as I do, a bottle of Smart Price sparkling water is ...

Review of Vimto Cordial

Refreshing Peach

Advantages: refreshing healthy drink
Disadvantages: more expensive

...after a meal. So when robinsons fruit & barley became part of my household, everything change! THE BEGINNING It all started when my son have to take a water bottle at school everyday. I noticed that he's not drinking enough water like me and usually took it back home without even drinking. Instantly I knew that he's not loving the taste of water so I decided to give a flavoured water a try. It's quite expensive which cost 1.46 for 4 small bottle. ...
...the cheaper option like squash. Robinsons fruit & barley was my first choice because I've tried the orange flavour on my friends house and the taste was just alright for me. A lot of the cheaper brands also tend to have lots of added colours and artifical flavourings so I chose Robinson instead. We have tried different flavour such as orange, lemon, summer fruit , kiwi but the one we fell inlove with was the peach. From then on, that's the only flavour ...
