Quenched: Thirst-Quenching Soda Drinks

Quenched brings a simple refreshing take to busy days, and special occasions. These fizzy fruit-flavoured drinks are ideal for warm days, or when you wish to skip the booze.

Check medication before consuming grapefruit or rhubarb sodas (avoid hibiscus lemonade for pregnancy). Also avoid caffeine (cola) or follow NHS guidelines of no more than one a day.

Always pop ring-pulls back over hole before recycling, to avoid wildlife getting trapped.

Sold in three flavours, each can contains just sparkling water, real fruit and a little thirst-quenching bicarbonate of soda. For a light, flavourful refreshment to enjoy any time.

• Lime and soda is not too heavy or sweet, ideal with a touch of Rocks organic cordial.
• Blackcurrant and soda is a classic childhood treat, with a sweet-tart balance to appeal to all ages.
• Orange and soda blends juicy, sun-ripened oranges with the lively fizz of soda water. Summer in a glass!

Why Do Most Sodas Have Artificial Sweeteners?

Most main brands have now added in disgusting-aftertaste artificial sweeteners (same with fruit squash) to try to eek more profits, due to the upcoming sugar tax.

One critic of the new recipe for Ribena (a vitamin-C-rich blackcurrant squash developed during World War II, when citrus fruits were not available) wrote ‘Adding sweeteners to Ribena was intended to reduce our sugar intake. This has worked, as I no longer buy Ribena!’
