Sainsbury's Basics Lemonade Reviews

The basic lemonade from Sainsbury's is part of their basic line of products and only costs 25 p for a bottle of one litre and a half. I am a great fan of both the basic line of products from Sainsbury and the Value line from Tesco and each time I need something, I try their range first. This bottle looks cheap, the ...  Read the complete review

Sainsbury's Basics Lemonade Description: Manufacturer: Sainsbury's / Type: Soft Drinks. If you have read any of my earlier reviews (thank you very much, all read and rates appreciated!) then you are likely to know by now that I am a fan of the supermarkets own brands which aim to offer us savings by using basic and no frills ...  Read the complete review

My wife bought a bottle of Sainsbury's Basics Lemonade on her last shopping trip. It only cost 27p so I was impressed if a little dubious about the look of the bottle. We get through a lot of fizzy pop in the course of a week, especially around the festive season and I'm all for saving money but I think we made a mistake on this ...  Read the complete review

As you may have read from some of my other reviews, i am a bit of a bargain hunter and since i recently lost my job i have been trying to shop on a budget. I usually get my groceries in Asda as i find them quite cheap but a friend recommended Sainsburys for their value range so i thought i would try them out. One of the ...  Read the complete review

I only very occasionally venture into Sainsburys mainly because I do not particularly like the layout of our local store but it is convenient to grab the odd thing as it is on my route home from work. Myself and my girlfriend were having a night in with a few movies over the weekend and she wanted to drink Shandy (she's a classy bird) ...  Read the complete review

I dont understand why this has got a bad review. I am a big fizzy drinks drinker and i found this to be rather good. For the price of 18p i cannot complaine. It is not as good as branded lemonade, but it isnt bad. The packaging is simple to say the least, but that is expected of the basic range. I dont buy lemonade for a pretty sticker on the ...  Read the complete review

I've read a good number of poor reviews about Sainsbury's Basics Lemonade but personally I quite like this drink & find it excellent value for money. In an ideal world I'd be buying Britvic or Schweppes etc but for a bog-standard lemonade drink as a change from water it will do for me - especially if used as a mixer. I ...  Read the complete review

My review of Sainsbury's Basics Lemonade ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ Introduction ~~~~~~~~ As you're probably aware if you visit various supermarkets regularly; Sainsbury's do an 'own brand' range of cheap, no frills (wait; didn't some other supermarket do a cheapo range called 'no-frills'? lol!) plain ...  Read the complete review

I am a huge fan of fizzy drinks, and have always tried new brands and value ranges that comes with a wide range of different tastes and quality. In a way, I feel that the major and premium brands have influenced our perception of them, and it seems to lead us to purchase drinks which have been advertised and associated with celebrities such as ...  Read the complete review

I drink quite a lot of fizzy drinks, lemonade being one of my favourite, and therefore want to try and save a few pennies wherever possible by trying out new, cheaper, brands. When I spotted a 2 litre bottle of Sainsbury's Basics Lemonade for just 18p I decided to pick one up to give it a try. At such a low price even if it went in the ...  Read the complete review

Many of my reviews have been of or mentioned Tesco Value products, but never have I crossed the line onto the dreaded Sainsbury's Basics range. I did give their Lemonade a go recently, which costs all of 18p for a 2 litre bottle, but sadly, this is one instance where the price really does reflect the tawdry and shoddy quality of the ...  Read the complete review

Let's be honest. If you buy a 2 litre bottle of lemonade and it costs you 18p, you can't really expect much. Sainsbury's Basics range is the equivalent to the Tesco Value range, or the Somerfield Simply Value, and so on with each supermarket. Their lemonade in this range is cheap, and it is reflected in the quality of the drink. The ...  Read the complete review

As someone who is watching the pennies a 2 litre bottle of lemonade for 18p was quite a bargin i thought. I had used other supermarket "value" brands and found them acceptable so saw no reason to think that Sainsbury's would be different. How wrong can one person be!!! This has to be one of the weakest lemonades i have ever ...  Read the complete review

I'm a big fan of the Tesco Value product line and I thought I give the rival brand a go and bought the Sainsbury's Basic lemonade. Sainsbury's Basics offers 2 litre bottles of lemonade for 18 pence - an unbeatable price but not really a must-buy as I prefer normal water. However, thought a stock of lemonade can never be wrong when ...  Read the complete review

This is a very poor at lemonade from Sainsbury's. Granted it is sold at an absurdly low price, but for almost everyone this is essentially a waste of money because in this they are not getting lemonade, but some sort of poor quality fizzy water with a couple of chemical lemon drops in it. The lemon taste in this is very slight and not in a ...  Read the complete review

As the sun has been out this week I decided to treat myself to a glass of shandy in the garden. I had a bottle of lemonade in the cupboard that i hadn't tried yet from the Sanisbury's basic range - this is the equivalent of the tesco value and Asda smartprice ranges. I was happy when I opened the bottle as it gave me that comforting ...  Read the complete review

I have noticed a lot of cheapo stuff in my mums trolley lately but I didn't think it could get worse than the horrible cola from Tesco but it did when she brought a bottle of Basics lemonade from Sainsburys. It's rank. It just tastes like fizzy water with a bit of Jif lemon squirted into it. It's too fizzy to start with but ...  Read the complete review

As I'm trying to conserve cash at the moment, I am trying out the basics range at Sainsbury. I purchased this lemonade last week for the bargain price of 18p! All the basics range are in basic packaging which can be offputting to some people, but at the end of the day, lemonade is lemonade surely? Well no actually, it's not. ...  Read the complete review

awwww sainsbury basics, being a student, i really do love them to bits, i have tried almost all of them, I came across this lemonade, on one of my strolls across sainsbury, I dont remember exact price but it was arounds 20p. 20P!, I though, they never to seize to surprise me. Well as it was almost free I picked up a bottle, it gives ...  Read the complete review

Now I gave this a whirl at a friend's house last summer and although not a massive lemonade drinker I wanted to brave it as I always like trying new brands. It has to be said that the price is a matter of pence so you cannot argue there and you could easily stock up and buy in bulk if you were having a barbecue or a picnic for lots of ...  Read the complete review
