Subject: Dandelion and Burdock

Written By: maddog on 09/17/06 at 3:34 pm

Anyone else remember drinking this in the 1970s?

I think it's a soft drink peculiar to the UK but even here you don't see it much anymore (although to be honest I haven't looked very hard).

It was a special drink we had around Christmas time, have not had it for ages.

It's still available.  Someone at work brought some in a few weeks ago.  I think he bought it in Tesco's.

I was never a fan of fizzy pop as a kid so I never tasted it.  My brothers would drink it though.

Thanks karen, think I'll check out the local Tesco tomorrow lunchtime and see if I can get some....usually get my sandwich from there anyway!

The taste is forever linked in my mind with drinking it after judo lessons when I was about 8 years old.
