Yea I used to love Dandelion and Burdock.

And Cream Soda.

Dandelion and burdock as a mixer with spiced rum.... lush (nicknamed weedkiller)

The days when the pop man came to your street were good days. Was that just a wales thing?

We had that in Kent.

Our man was called Mr Bacon, used to sell various drinks, including some previously mentioned (e.g. Cream Soda and Dandelion & Burdock) also sold one that I've never seen anywhere else. Golden Lemonade...

Reflecting on this, I'm hoping that wasn't their version of Driver Tizer :eek:

Cremola Foam.

Now you're talkin', ability to seemingly make unlimited fizzy drinks just from a can of powder and some water...it was...like...some sort of magic to a yougster.

We also had the lemonade flatbed lorry come around our estate, brought him out the empties to get the deposit. Gawd, I can't imagine what they were using back then to do the array of flavours like creme soda and pineapple, I imagine it didn't get near even seeing a pineapple.
