Sprite

Being a fan of fizzy 'pop' style drinks, I am aware of the potential damage said drinks can do to my tooth enamel and because I am conscious of this, I have recently been making a bit of an effort to try and drink healthier alternatives... Anything that prevents me from needing a filling at the dentist's is well worth a try in my book! My partner on the other hand is not so conscious of any 'tooth guilt' type feelings and regularly buys cans of pop and fizzy drinks. One such fizzy drink that he buys on a regular basis is 'Sprite' which is a lemonade style drink, described as 'A fresh tasting, sparkling lemon & lime flavour soft drink' on the ...  Read the complete review

As I have intolerance to aspartame I have to be careful which soft drinks I buy. Whilst this means I have to avoid all 'diet' and 'X Zero' drinks etc it also means most lemonades (which contain both sugar and sweeteners) are also off limits. The reason why sweeteners are used is because it is cheaper than sugar as the chemical sweetener is supposed to be several thousand times sweeter so you need so much less of it. Fortunately for me sprite does not contain these chemical nasties and so a few 500ml bottles are regularly in my fridge. Another advantage of this is that it contains no artificial colours, flavours or caffeine either which is always ...  Read the complete review

Although I am mostly a Coca Cola, Coke Zero, Schweppes Lemonade or orange juice drinker, I do sometimes like a change and occasionally I buy a bottle of Sprite to keep in the fridge. Sprite is a fizzy drink with 'real lemon and lime flavour'. It tastes very much like either lemonade or 7UP, but with a nice lime edge to it that makes it a bit less sour and dry tasting than those drinks. The lemon and lime blend well together and make it quite a refreshing drink, especially if it's ice cold and has lost a little of its fizz so doesn't get up your nose too much. My own favourite way to drink Sprite is with a shot of Jack Daniels, a wedge of lime and a ...  Read the complete review

I drink far too much pop, I'm a bit of an addict. I don't care what form it comes in large bottle, small bottles or a can I guzzle so much I have a permenant bloated belly! I'm reviewing the can which I purchased yesterday. I had of course drank it before way back but never took alot of notice of it before and yesterday it jumped out the fridge into my shopping basket cos boy o boy was I thirsty! The can is made of aluminium and is 330ml in size and recyclable. It's blue and green in colour with large white writing on the fornt telling me it is indeed Sprite and under that I'm given a quick at a glance nutitional chart. On the back I'm told the size ...  Read the complete review

Sprite is a clear and fizzy lemon an lime flavoured drink from the Coca-Cola Company, with no artificial flavours and no caffeine. It is considered as the rival drink to 7UP, and I have to say that I actually prefer it as well. Coke's response to 7UP has cornered a good market, giving 7UP a good challenge in the carbonated citrus drink range. It was introduced in the States in 1961, and made its way over here with success, become the market leader in its genre of drink in 1989. My personal opinion is that it is very refreshing. Too many carbonated drinks at the moment leave an overly sugary aftertaste, and this is not one of them. You get a hit of ...  Read the complete review
