Hot orange squash

[ZXSpectrum]

Hot Orange Squash used to be great when you were ill.. Used to give a nice burn in the throat and often did well to clear up a cold.. Maybe had a bit of vit-c in so that probably helped.

My sister used to make jelly with milk instead of water!

Never had hot squash with the exception of hot almond squash. Remember I quite liked it, had it a few times but not recently.

I wish you could get a hot lemon drink that tastes like Lemsip, but without any meds in it.

Microwave some lemonade. It works wonders for colds too!

Yuck!!

I discovered a nice refreshing drink last week. I was in Asda and noticed a Robinsons squash in their creations range that I haven't seen before, Lemon and Raspberry, so I bought a bottle. Make it up with water straight out of the fridge and it's a lovely refreshing squash. Want it even colder, just add ice cubes. It's lovely stuff.

Wait, wait wait, what? What is this wizardry?

I hate Lemsip. Not been anywhere near a lemon. If I have one (a supermarket/Superdrug own brand - less than half the price) I mix 2/3 hot water and 1/3 squash so I can drink it.

The main item in the powder you get in lemsip is spray dried lemon.

Honestly you really should stop making stuff up.

It's not as extreme as the hot pork pies that @SexyGreyFox indulges in.

Or you could just... you know... take the meds in pill form.

Sometimes if you have a cold, one of these helps to increase your fluid intake.

Not since I was a kid. Might revisit the hot Ribena though, loved that.

Oh god no, lemsip tastes like ass.

Eat a lot of ass then do you?

Hot squash, i dont even like room temp squash. The colder the better, so cold it hurts your throat

 

[Efour]

So hot it burns your throat

Ok glad that this phenomenon wasn't just brought upon me.

Hot ribena...I think that was the queen of hot,cold drinks lol.
But I remember ribena costing 5x more than the shops own brand squash.

I always get nostalgic shopping in the UK.
