Ribena Blackcurrant Concentrate Reviews

I'm not too well at the moment and hot Ribena is a blessing! If you usually drink tea but just need something sweet and more refreshing there is nothing better than warm Ribena. Lots of sugar and vitamin C it's a top drink for when you're under the weather! As it's a concentrate, you can make it as strong or as weak as you like. Also great ...  Read the complete review

As fruit squashes go, I would imagine that Ribena is the old man of the pack. The product has been available since 1936 - although it was only named Ribena in 1938. I used to drink Ribena a lot in my childhood - it must have been the squash of choice in my household. One thing I appreciate about the drink is the fact that it doesn't ...  Read the complete review

Currently priced at £2.40 in Tesco for a litre it is not a cheap drink but I was feeling sorry for myself and wanted a little treat! Product ...  Read the complete review

Ribena Blackcurrant Concentrate has always been my favourite squash.. that is always, absolutely forever. I like squash a lot, as it encourages me to drink more water and is a healthier alternative to fizzy carbonated soft drinks. Ribena is such a perfect taste I just cannot begin to describe how superior it is to all other ...  Read the complete review

Ribena has always been a favourite of mine since I was a child. I am not a fan of squash as I find the taste very synthetic and false. Ribena however takes on a whole different flavour to other squashes and I can usually find a bottle in my cupboard. Ribena is manufactured by Glaxo Smith Kline, and comes packaged in posh bottles which look a ...  Read the complete review

Most people remember the taste of the classic soft drink Ribena. It is a blackcurrant concentrated juice drink. It is bottled in a see through plastic bottle. You can see the rich purple blackcurrant juice through the bottle. The top of the bottle is a screw top which has been sealed with gold foil. The great thing is that the ...  Read the complete review

Ribena, or Beena as it's referred to in our house, is a wonder drink that kids and adults enjoy. It's probably the most versatile concentrate ever. As a child I drank Ribena, it was my drink of choice when I was not allowed fizzy drinks (I question my parents logic in that as Ribena is very high in sugar, but hey). Since ...  Read the complete review

Blackcurrant Ribena First of all, what is Ribena? Ribena is a leading brand of uncarbonated soft drinks made by a company called Glaxo Smith Kline.

Ribena is one of the drinks that I grew up with... it is also one that changed its mix and flavour over the years. About the same time that they launched all their money making sugar free and kind to teeth brands, the standard concentrate also changed. Gone was the lovely fruity blackcurrant flavour. It used to be so rich and really ...  Read the complete review

Ribena is a thick syrupy concentrated drink with added vitamin C. It's been around for decades. You are recommended to dilute 1 part (30ml) of Ribena with at least 5 parts (150ml) of water. A bottle of Ribena is designed to last. The strong blackcurrant taste is tangy and satisfying and the juice retains a dark blackcurrant colour when diluted. ...  Read the complete review

Ribena Ribena is my ultimate favourite blackcurrent juice. It normally costs quite a bit more than supermarkets own brands but is definatley the blackcurrent you want if you are wanting to mix with cider. I tend to find the others do not have enough fruit in to taint the taste of the cider and make it taste awful. Ribena is ...  Read the complete review

My daughter bought home a couple of bottles of Ribena the other day and I hadn't had this stuff for an absolute age before then. Usually I tend to have the Robinsons High Juice if I have a squash but this was a lovely change. My daughter picked this stuff up from one of the smaller supermarkets in town (either Somerfields or Spar) and it was on ...  Read the complete review

I have always been a huge fan of Ribena. It is one of those drinks that brings back the child in all of us, and now my kids love it too. Recently I have started to buy the Really Light Ribena for my son who is four as I do sometimes worry about the sugar in his diet. Ribena light comes in the same cartons, bottles etc as the normal ...  Read the complete review

An absolute MUST in my cupboard for about the last 16 years when first small person decided to make my shopping expeditions more fun! We did, however, rediscover the joys of such drinkables as Ribena, and quickly became Ribena kids ourselves. BIT OF HISTORY I knew Ribena had been around a long time because I remember drinking it ...  Read the complete review

I'm feeling a bit nostalgic tonight, I find myself wandering back to my childhood with a glimpse of the Ribena bottle standing on the kitchen counter. To be honest we never got Ribena very often it was too expensive which it still is to this day. On the occasions when we did though it was a big treat. The dilution of the mixture was ...  Read the complete review

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 ...  Read the complete review

In terms of soft drinks, Ribena has to be one of the best-known brands of squash drinks available, and also probably one of the nicest. Although you can get large bottles of the juice which you dilute according to your taste, there are good-sized bottles of ready-mixed Ribena available, and I first gave them a try last year. ...  Read the complete review

The release of the film Shrek II has brought in its wake an array of all things bogey coloured (because that?s the colour of ogres) and whilst browsing around Sainsbury?s the other day in spending mode, because my little one had just swam her first solo length of the local pool (front and back) and was being treated, we came across a pukey green ...  Read the complete review

I buy the carton of the ribena blackcurrant toothkind for the kids because it is a healthy and nutritious drink, and the kids love the taste, even when I was a kid I remember my mum buying it for me although you bought it in a 500ml glass bottle back then. There is so much to like about this drink not only is it a yummy drink, there is no ...  Read the complete review
