Advantages: Tastes sweet and lemony.

Disadvantages: Might be too sweet for some.

I am a fizzy drink lover but shandy isn't something I usually gravitate towards, it just doesn't tend to be all that nice. Most of them are too bitter and have a horrible aftertaste that I really dislike.

My other half popped into Somerfield's one day to grab some milk and a bottle of fizzy to get us through to the next day when I was planning on going shopping. He got the milk and brought this home. I tried not to look disappointed in his choice and thought that I would give it a go, because quite simply, what is the worst that could happen?!

The packaging is rather average and nothing particularly eye catching, I would certainly not have given it a second look.

This smells rather nice, and tastes like it smells. This is sweet and lemony. This has none of that bitter disgusting aftertaste that is usually there with shandy! This is refreshing and very pleasant!

I was shocked by how much I enjoyed this, we have even bought it on several occasions since.

At less than a pound for a two litre bottle it isn't bad value but there are many other own label bottles of fizzy drink at a much lower price.

Summary: Lovely nice and cold.
