My local M&S has been out of sparkling Florida Orange for some time.

When I enquired about stock coming in I was told it had all been withdrawn and they were finding a new supply.

Sounded a bit ominous, anything known Penny?

So sorry Laurie. Not been informed of anything like that.. wondered if it had anything to do with the area where all these storms were.
As a matter of interest have you tried Robinson.Orange and Mango. very tasty. If I do hear I will let you know. Cheers Penny

Thanks for taking the trouble penny.

I'll look out for the Robinsons, but I have to be careful of additives. Used to drink Orangina which is fairly natural, but it is no longer imported or made under licence.

Pleasure to help Laurie. I hope Robinson's Mango will be OK. No sugar added. Concentrated low calorie Orange and Mango
Soft drink. Fingers crossed for you. Cheers Penny

Checked out the Robinson's.. No added sugar but plenty of added aspartame!

If they used nice sweet fruit in the first place they wouldn't need sweeteners.

How many of us need to sweeten our home made juice, other than lemon or lime?

Sorry Laurie. Still checking. Put in Google. Is. M&S orange juice. Lots and lots of pictures. You should be able to recognize the bottle or pack. Then we can carry on searching. Cheers Penny

Thanks, Penny.

It's not that big a deal, there are plenty of drinks available with "No Artificial Flavours or sweeteners".

Curiouser and curiouser.

Jolly good, at least you can have a drink now. Probably making more cash on the smaller size. Never mind. Enjoy your drink. Cheers Penny
