lenquixote66 Posted September 12, 2023 #1 Share Posted September 12, 2023 Do you drink any beverages that you enjoyed in your teens aside from alcohol ? My favorite beverages of my youth were malteds and ice cream sodas .I cannot recall the last time I drank either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemorvan Posted September 12, 2023 #3 Share Posted September 12, 2023 It was rationed at our house even though one of my uncles worked there and received lots of free stock. My favourite was cups of hot Vimto along with Lucozade. When I was 8 my gran convinced me it would cure my meningitis. Similarly many years later when I became paralysed my uncle fed me both beverages to cure me. Both were right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Harters Posted September 12, 2023 #4 Share Posted September 12, 2023 I was never a fan of Lucozade, although my partner regards it as a wonder drug. By the by, Italian restaurant Vero Moderno in Salford is on the site of the original Vimto factory, the name preserved in the address - Vimto Gardens. Decent scran, IMO.

CntPAcruiser Posted September 13, 2023 #5 Share Posted September 13, 2023 As a kid I enjoyed root beer floats or just a nice frosty mug of root beer (extra points if you get the reference). It's not something I have regularly anymore, but on the rare occasions we eat fast food, if root beer is an option, that's often what I'll get to drink. But I haven't had a float, shake, or malt in decades. Also, growing up in Wisconsin, we had milk to drink at most meals when I was young, but I don't drink milk by the glass any longer. Just in my tea or coffee. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
