Ribena, Ribena, Ribena, I love it! Ribena Blackcurrant, Ribena Apple and Ribena Strawberry - you name it as long as it's Ribena! So why do I love Ribena so much? Throughout my childhood, there were 6 children in my immediate family. My parents would never buy us Ribena as it would get drunk too quickly and well, they weren't that rich - lets face it, it is expensive stuff for a concentrated juice drink. We were always subjected to the supermarkets own brand blackcurrant squash drinks. I grew to hate these drinks with such a passion, every day for years and years, the same smell, the same taste eurgh…. ! The smell still makes my stomach ...  Read the complete review

Ribena is a lovely blackcurrant juice drink, around since 1938 and my favourite drink that I can dilute to taste and drink every day! I often get bored of foods and drinks quite easily, and whilst I enjoy having options, normally have 2 or 3 drinks in my fridge/cupboard to choose from, Ribena juice drink is ALWAYS there as a back up! The concentrated blackcurrant juice drink is a thick liquid, of quite a deep purple colour which is very sweet on it's own so needs to be diluted with water to suit each individual taste. In terms of my own sweetness I dilute perhaps 1 part ribena with 5 parts water (preferably bottles as I am not a fan of tap!) which suits me ...  Read the complete review

Ribena has been around for many years, It was first produced in 1938. I have been grown up on ribena and it is my favourite flavored squash on the market. Ribena is made from British blackcurrants. You can usually pick up a one litre bottle of Ribena for around £2, Ribena is expensive but is constantly on offer. It is worth picking up a couple of bottles if you see it on offer as this will save you some money in the long run. I will now go into some more detail on the brand :) Bottle: I find the Ribena bottle to be very appealing and it stands out nicely on the shop floor. It is simply designed with the ribena logo as the main attraction to the ...  Read the complete review

There's nothing better than chilled Ribena on a summer's day, any day in fact. Ribena is a Sweet concentrated juice drink made from British Blackcurrants. Recently in Asda, 1 litre bottles of ribena have been on sale for £1 and BOGOF in Waitrose, so I have been taking advantage of these offers as usually Ribena is very pricey for just a small bottle. It is suggested to dilute 1 part Ribena with four parts water. I like my Ribena quite strong so the colour is a fairly deep purple. Ribena is best served chilled in my opinion, which is easily achieved with a few ice cubes or you can just prepare some and keep a bottle in the fridge. The taste is very refreshing ...  Read the complete review

I am a bit of a Ribena addict....as are my children.....and so we always have a bottle of Ribena Blackcurrant Concentrate in the fridge. I do occasionally buy ready made Ribena cartons but I generally find that the Ribena in the cartons is made up to be stronger than I would choose - and obviously overall it works out more expensive - and so generally I like to stick to the Ribena Blackcurrant Concentrate. A 1 litre bottle of the concentrate costs £2.00 from Tesco - which I think is really good value. If you make it up the way that the instructions suggest then this will give you 20 drinks per bottle which equates to 10p per drink, but I like to make it up weaker and so .  Read the complete review
