What's your poison?

Brown lemonade is, I am told, the same as white lemonade but with some caramel added to give it the colour. It does taste slightly different (I prefer it to be honest) but I don't think even Jilly Goolden would be able to detect the difference as being caused by caramel.

I'm a wine drinker normally. Red or white i'm not fussy.

On a really hot summers day though, i love WKD ( Irn-Bru) or Guiness.

Forget what I said before, then.

Doesn't matter if I spill some, you can lick it off; or get someone else to!

Don't forget red lemonade, Marksi... which seemed to die out when they stopped producing Yellow Pack stuff for Stewarts and Crazy Prices. The days when I used to mix white, brown and red lemonade...

Now my tastes are more sophisticated, I prefer a Super Chilled Fosters or Carling Extra Cold, four or five are enough to get me ratted, or failing that, lots of Red Smirnoff Ice. Or Bailey's.

Awww, shucks!!!! Just as i was getting used to being on top

Anyhoo! Before you withdraw your comment. I am rather fussy about the alcohol content of the wine i consume. It must be 12% +.
None of that 5-7% shite for me.

I'm afraid I don't remember Red Lemonade. What did it taste of then? You can probably still buy it from the Maine Lemonade Lorries.

Red lemonade tasted like... white lemonade but with added colouring and flavouring.

We used to get bottles from the Maine lorry years ago...

Probably would do if it tasted nice.
I'm convinced it tastes better when you're somewhere with horse brasses on display.

Definitely does - little pub in Otley a few months ago was fantastic... just was a good olde ye Yorkshireey pub should be-ey.

There's an Otley Arms at the bottom of my street! Typical olde-worlde style Welsh valleys pub.
