This is lovely. So refreshing on a hot day. And even better r with a bit of gin thrown in as well. THANK YOU for the free sample. Have now ordered more of this and also the root beer for my dad.
Refreshing treat on a hot day. Thank you for the sample - its not something I would have usually chosen - so it was a lovely surprise and we loved drinking this with still water and lots of ice.
You're very welcome, Lois - we're so pleased to hear how much you loved (and were pleasantly surprised by) this free sample! Definitely the perfect thing for this hot weather!
Absolutely loved this free sample, it went down a treat with my children. Such a refreshing taste and it was great to sip something that wasn't overly sweet. Perfect in the hot weather!
We're so happy to hear how much you all loved this pretty pink free sample, Kim!
I received this as a sample when ordering a top up of my spices and it's delicious! So refreshing! will definitely be ordering more, and I'd like to try some of the other drink blends!
We're so pleased to hear how much you loved this refreshing free sample, Sally - we'd love to hear what you think of the rest of our brand new drinks blends, too!
I made the mistake of putting in Tonic rather than Soda so the result was a tiny bit too sweet but it all vanished in the usual way. So thanks so much for the free sample - it was put to good use.
We're glad to hear that this was a success nonetheless - it is certainly a beautiful vibrant colour and very summery!
