I'm not looking at your posh squashes, like... Pomegranate and Falafel with a mint twist,
Not am I interested in your Robinson's, nor your higher end squashes. They can go away.

I'm talking about bog standard Tesco /Asda/Sainsbury's squash.

Orange & Mango beats all... orange and pineapple in that sort of exotic category cannot compare.

Close second is Cherries and Berries, followed by blackcurrant, THEN summer fruits.

Apple & Blackcurrant can fuck off ...not tasting of ether fruit, just disappointment.

I concur OP. And I will fight anyone who disagrees!

Sneezein3 · 09/03/2025 20:58

I’m so very sorry that you are all wrong - Vimto is the only acceptable cordial!

I know you said you're not interested in Robinson's but they have a new lime and mint one and I'm obsessed with it. It's like an alcohol-free mojito. Every friend I've given a glass to when they're visiting has loved it.

I've had this, so nice

TheMorels · 09/03/2025 20:58

Ew. Squash. Do adults drink it? Haven’t drunk it since I was a child and never once gave it to my children.

TiramisuTastesDreamy · 09/03/2025 20:57

Cherries and Berries is the best ! I sent back a substituted summer fruits on my shopping delivery the other day 😂

Octavia64 · 09/03/2025 20:55

I haven't had orange lemon and pineapple squash since the 80s.

Feel the need to buy it now.

I used to drink gallons of the stuff.

BlackSheepThisYear · 09/03/2025 20:54

Cherries and Berries for us. We drink loads as a family.
And I also like an apple squash or a lemon squash.

BobbyBiscuits · 09/03/2025 20:53

I only like the elderflower one. And the french pomegranate one.
I wish they did a strawberry one that had no sweetners and was a dupe for the strawberry ribena in a box before they changed the recipe.

@WonkyDonkeyWonkeyDonkey I always have a bottle of Schweppes peppermint cordial in the cupboard and have it diluted with hot water if I have stomachache. Generally my favourite squash is the original Vimto. At the moment they have a strawberry and lime and that is very nice. A few winters back they had one that tasted of cinnamon and winter spices, it was gorgeous

Robinsons is elite #teamrobinsons

You are so wrong. Apple and blackcurrant is the best.

KarmenPQZ · 09/03/2025 20:50

Let me introduce you to Apple and elderflower. So good with the added benefit that in a glass it looks like water so my kids don’t clock me drinking it.

Differentstarts · 09/03/2025 20:49

Orange in the winter lemon in the summer. Flavours don't need to be mixed and anyone who likes mango is just wrong

Londonrach1 · 09/03/2025 20:48

Roses lime!!!!

Any mango juice smells like cat pee to me.

Stop feeding your cats mango then..

Orange and pineapple from Asda
Lemon squash from Tesco

They are both immense!

minnienono · 09/03/2025 20:45

No lidl peach is where it's at!

LoyalAquaOtter · 09/03/2025 20:44

The two we always buy from tesco are orange and mango and cherries and berries so I would say you are a woman of very good taste.

Just when I thought we could be friends ...

I thought this was going to be another trump thread.

YABU

They all taste the same -sweeteners and flavoring. Yuk

Nonsense.

The blackcurrant tastes nothing like Orange.

Your taste buds must be malfunctioning.

I have a peach and raspberry from lidl. Unfortunately it only tastes of peach but is still really nice. Orange and mango doesn't really last.

No, that is not a normal squash, so is disqualified.

coldcallerbaiter · 09/03/2025 20:41

I like it. Also orange and pineapple or the double orange is good. I like peach, pink grapefruit or summer fruits too. In fact the only ones I dislike are lemon or lime as they taste artificial.
