White liquid, served cold from the fridge. Excellent. Tastes great and what's more it's good for you in almost every way. Plus you can mix it with a variety of things (fruit, chocolate, kahlua) to make it taste exactly how you like. At some point I intend on making fizzy milk in a soda stream.

loses two points for having to be squeezed out of a cow.

I think its safe to say tea is generally the national drink. I certainly love it and must drink my way through a tea plantation a year. The only problem is after about 4pm another cup of tea leaves me buzzing (more caffein in tea than in coffee). But here comes decaf tea and it's great. Just like normal tea but minus the caffeine. Wish I had discovered it sooner. Only reason it doesn't get a ten is because the caffeinated version is better because of the caffeine.

The first cup of coffee in a morning is a fine thing - slowly easing you into the day, lifting you up on a cloud of fresh-roasted loveliness.
I couldn't start my day without it!

One of those situations where time slows down in order to prolong the misery.

Firstly, one is confused and perturbed by the stale, arid sensation upon placing cup to lip, as though one was about to consume some kind of ghost-drink.

Secondly, the shocking realisation that something is horribly amiss as what cascades into one's parched mouth is not cool, clean water but a ramshackle assortment of paperclips and a Philips-head screw, all liberally coated with the dust of ages.

The moral of the story: if you are going to store your paperclips in an old cup from the water cooler, ensure that it is positioned on your desk in such a way that you are unable to mistake it for the actual real water in an identical cup.

As far as Irn Bru goes, this makes a very good tippex thinner.

As a drink ginger beer is generally an aquired taste, one I happen to like. Home Made Organic Ginger Beer is a product I had the misfortune to sample in the West Highlands and frankly tasted like soggy armpits. Need I say more.

A classic. A little on the expensive side, but worth it every time! hhhhhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Fizzy. Ginger. Organic. Nice. A bit too fizzy at times and makes me sneeze - a quality shared by champagne.

i needed a vodka mixer and procured 2 litres of this during a panic buy in the shop earlier. i was distracted by some scallies who i thought were going to steal my bike which was parked outside and i just grabbed the first 2 litre bottle i clapped eyes on.

two hours and 2 litres later i feel like someone has pumped my stomach full of toxic gas. actually, i felt this way after just one glass but i persisted because mmm vodka.

this sugary, sickly, noxious liquid should be consigned to one of Hell's deepest circles for eternity and without delay. no wonder Americans go to war with other people - the amount of sugar in this shit is enough to make anyone feel like they're the tastiest bastard on the face of the planet.

A litre of strawberries, bananas and apples for just ?1.97. It's delicious and it's so damn healthy it'll make you feel young again

Anyone (in the UK) who frequents fast food / takeaway shops will already have tried this - it's the type of coke sold in a lot of arabic / islamic countries and is seemingly universally supplied to kebab shops. I always used to presume it was some sort of bootleg Diet Coke as the taste was obviously different, however it turns out it's exactly the same as the stuff they've been selling for years in the U.S., having a different balance of aspartime and phenylalanine than regular Diet Coke. As such, it still tastes better than every other diet cola out there, except of course for the original Diet Coke, which retains it's mantle with aplomb

I've been wanting to try this stuff for years, having seen it drunk by so many cowboys on US TV shows and I eventually found some in Selfridges last week.

Yum!

This came in cordial form so it ain't fizzy like I hear you oft get it in traditional places but it's still very good. Like a less sickly cream soda with a dandelion and burdock twang.
Apparently the Sarsaparilla plant is also known as Wild Liquorice and I can see where they're getting that idea from yet liquorice mings and this is very tasty
