This started when this summer, one time when it was real hot I was like.. I'm craving getting a country time lemonade can. Later look it up and they don't make them in cans. So for this test, only option was to get this "barrel" of it. Fuckin shit is big enough for a whole neighborhood. Does 24 litres. lol. There's this little scoop.. that'll do 2 cups or like a water bottle.
The "nutrition facts" panel on the back says lookout.. just having 1 cup of this shit is 22% of your max daily sugar. So a normal big glass is just under 2 cups, have two glasses of those and you're at your max 100% don't have more sugar ok.
Then when they say it's got vitamin C, they're not fuckin around. Check this out. Just 1 cup of this shit.. like who's gonna have only 1 cup, ok. But check this out.. 1 cup is 76% of your max vitamin c you're allowed to have during a whole day. That's only 68mg though. So it's not this warning, gonna killl you level, if you have too much. Think of a vitamin c chewable tablet, they're like 500mg. So you got some room there.. but this shit is like "Pepsi" where the kids 'll have, I don't know.. couple 2L in a day. You start to get into the 1000mg of vitamin C though.. that's being a bit too much. How many cups of this shit would you have to have to be in that danger range. A normal 2 cup big glass is already over.. that's 140mg. You'd have to have quite a bit.
2nd drink was the brisk.. that tasted "off".. but not so much you'd dump it out. When trying the peach shit, the brisk brand was "ok" but a bit off. This "lemonade" is more "off". Like come on. With all these drinks I keep thinking.. at least with fucking Tang.. in the 80's.. the shit would at least taste "good" ok. How come these big companies can't figure that out. The country time is made by KraftHeinz.. so at least that tastes "good".
The 3rd was this "organic". That tasted kinda bad. Here's the ingredients. Water, organic cane sugar, organic concentrated lemon juice, organic lemon juice, organic lemon extract. You'd think, putting sugar in there they could at least make it taste good, but no. Gonna try these other ones next before having more of this shit.
That lemon gin though.. pouring it in the glass by itself, it was like "blue" a bit. Let me get those ingredients. Water, gin, glucose-fructose, natural flavours, citric acid, color. You get this shitty plastic bottle instead of how it should be glass. Could be this fucking plastic seeping in. It tasted like to the point where you'd wanna dump it out, eh. It's that much "off". I'd have been way better off just getting straight-up, "gin". Wouldn't be this type of oh now you're getting poisoned.
I knock on the neighbor's door and ask, hey do you want some of this country time.. I got like a whole barrel of it. He says ok i'll come over with a container. He wanted a straight shot in the bottom of a cup to try this lemon gin. He had some and he's like.. this shit tastes bad, dumps out the rest. It does not taste "lemony" ok. It used to in the 80's.
Made by the mainstream Diageo, who's taking over everybody.

You'd think they'd make it so their lemon gin wouldn't taste like a dog's ass. Poisoning the people, that's what.
Tried some of this Tropicana, it's "ok". Ingredients: water, sugar, concentrated lemon juice, natural flavour. Says "no artificial flavours".
