Get the Giant pint can and chill it to as cold as you can before drinking.

Literally the best drink distilled from actual iron girders.

Don't know why I can't get a bunch of garbage in a box here in America.

What does it taste like? It looks like orange soda.
>>
>>7611924
It tastes like irn bru.
>>
>>7611924

It's extremely sweet and artificial tasting. The best comparison I can give is bubblegum but it's much tastier.
>>
>>7611924
Hard to describe. Kinda like lemonade and orangeade mixed together...I think.

So good though. Drink of the gods.

>tfw you work in a shop and you can buy Irn Bru whenever you want.

Scotsman here. I went to america once and was able to buy irn bru. Tasted slightly different than back home for some reason even though it looked exactly the same.


>>7611924
Take carbonated water. Add lots of sugar. Then add all of the artificial fruit flavouring you can find. All the fruits except maybe apple and blackcurrent.

Tastes like that.
>>
Irn Bru is toptier.

Wonder how its will change post sugar tax.

I tried Baja Blast in america, that was prettygood. How can i make myown baja blast? does the powerade + Mtndew mix really work?

I recently tried some for the first time after a coworker brought some back from his vacation and I liked it. It's probably expensive as fuck to buy online though.

The ingredients are different here which is unfortunate.

This. A friend of mine studied in Glasgow for a month and booked an extra suitcase just to bring some of this glorious nectar home. He was kind enough to share some and I must say that it was delicious. Pic related is available in the Netherlands and it tastes vaguely alike. Just not the same and they have recently added aspartame and now I find it disgusting.

Also, I'd like to try some Kool Aid, as it's often drank in US television series and I'm curious as to what it tastes like.

Kool Aid is pretty underwhelming.

It all depends how much sugar you add.
>>
>>7614279
Isn't that stuff already, like, 30% sugar?
>>
>>7614288

some of it is just flavoring and zero sweetener, you add as much or as little as you want.

Mo'fuggin' acerola. These things are crazy delicious.

South America has a ton of weird fruit you don't see in the states, but these are the ones I miss the most, mostly because they're goddamn delicious in mixed drinks and full of enough vitamins and whatnot to mitigate all but the gnarliest of hangovers.

I tried it in Scotland when I was there. Not worth trying. It tastes like 2 parts cough syrup 1 part orange soda

I do miss Cinnabuns, though. I lived for a while in Montréal and, as a borderline cinnamon addict, those things were like crack to me.

Imagine orange soda with a hint of ginger.
You have now tasted Irn Bru.
Thank me later.

There was one corner store in the city that had this almost a decade ago and then they stopped stocking it.

Easily the best tasting energy drink.

This, munchie boxes look so American, it's crazy we don't really have them here, looks like the perfect drunk food. I know Jack in the box tried to do something similar but I don't have those where I live

Also, poutine. Some places in America offer it, but not readily available or as good as in Canada. I had Smoke's when I was there and it was tasty as fuck
>>
>>7611924
very much like classic bubblegum flavor. Kind of strange to drink bubblegum soda, but not bad.
>>
I wish I could get a variety of ramen here. There are places that serve good ramen few and far between but they only ever have 1 MAYBE 2 styles available
>>
Wish we had more Doner Kebab places

you get sick of poutine fast though. It's always good when you're drunk though. I was in Montreal last semester for school, and went to La Banquise at least a dozen times. Drunk or not, it was never as good as the first time.

Speaking of my time up in Montreal; Fucking horse meat! Shit's insanely good when done right, and the fact that I could do it right on my first time in a shitty dorm kitchen means that there's seriously no excuse.
>>
>>7616208
>La Banquise

just googled that place, fuck that looks good. But I suppose it's like any drunk food, never as amazing as the first time...but still hits the spot every time

Go to your local British expat shop, should be one if you live in a decent town/city. Or just order online.

It's bad. Think red bull with a more acrid, chemical-plant taste, and little to no caffeine.

They have a Smoke's in my town, but I don't really want to go because it's where the street names are just numbers (5th street etc), which is generally code for "this is where you can get shot"

Very strong 2nd, I literally grew up drinking this. It didn't taste like an energy drink at all, and yet it was.
