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.

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

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.

IMissSparkling · 09/03/2025 20:50

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

NinaGeiger · 09/03/2025 20:51

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.

Robinsons is elite #teamrobinsons

@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

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.

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.

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.

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 😂

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.

I've had this, so nice

Sneezein3 · 09/03/2025 20:58

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

ShakespeareInTurmoil · 09/03/2025 20:59

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

Sneezein3 · 09/03/2025 20:59

Sorry @StHilarion i’ve just seen that you are also right!

I drink it in pint glasses, multiple a day. As does DP!

Sunshineandrainbow · 09/03/2025 21:00

I will give it a try, sounds lush.

Current fav is Robinson pink grapefruit 💗

PersephoneSmith · 09/03/2025 21:00

It is my favourite too @Ionut my second favourite is lemon though. Don’t like summer fruits or berries.

did you know there are lots of people who think squash is just for kids and this us adults who drink it are childish?
People are weird.

Dollydaydream100 · 09/03/2025 21:01

My favourite ever squash was Waitrose summer fruits sugar free high juice. Can't get it anywhere now, I've no idea why they stopped making it - they still have the sugar version.

Now I love bottlegreen pomegranite and elderflower but I can't drink too much as it's quite sugary I think. Delicious though with ice and soda water. I hide it from dh and the dcs and buy them Robinsons 😂

Bushmillsbabe · 09/03/2025 21:02

Absolutely

  1. Orange and Mango
  2. Cherries and Berries
But going rogue with Apple at number 3. Not apple and blackcurrant which is grim. Just apple
PersephoneSmith · 09/03/2025 21:03

lol, just spotted the ‘ew’ post from a few minutes ago

offmynut · 09/03/2025 21:04

I disagree op its lemon al the way for me.

Buzzer3555 · 09/03/2025 21:04

Aldi peach is just the best although I bet the Lìdĺ one is good too

TheChosenTwo · 09/03/2025 21:09

Just read the last few posts and am laughing to myself as I don’t think I know an adult who drinks squash! I haven’t drunk it since I was a kid and I don’t buy it at home either, the dc have always drank water.
But my favourite flavour was always orange and pineapple, can still almost taste it now if I think hard enough! The sweetness of the orange and the sharpness of the pineapple, the perfect match.
I don’t think orange and mango would be nice, sorry op, they are both too sweet and there’s no sharp tang in there to counteract it!

WonkyDonkeyWonkeyDonkey · 09/03/2025 21:09

@StHilarion it never crossed my mind that peppermint cordial would still exist. It seemed so old fashioned then in the eighties but that was probably just because I'm associating it with my granny who was born in 1901. So thank you, I'm going to buy some.
