  • help needed to remember a drink!

    Hiya everyone!
    Just found this ace site and joined the forums hoping for some help lol....
    I don't remember the name of it but It was a fizzy drink that I used to get from my local chippy in the 90s. It was a fruity almost flowery drink that was in a white and purple can that said 'with extracts of Ginseng' I've been wracking my brains for years.... Any help would be mucho appreciated

    There was an energy drink that came in a white can with purpleish writing that was called, ahem, "*****". I think that had ginseng in it. I don't know if it was available in the 90's but it was in our local shops a few years ago. IIRC it was sickly sweet and horrible - like a can of Corona with ten spoons of sugar added.

    Cheers,
    Finnthedude.

        My original post seems to have been censored by the forum software. The drink I'm talking about was called what we sometimes call a cat and rhymes with hussy.

        Cheers,

              Just a stab in the dark but it wasn't a Rubicon drink by any chance? I'm only going on the fact that they tend to have a fruity flowery taste and only seem to turn up in places like chippies and corner shops. I'm not sure if they were around then though.

                              Yesterday I had a fizzy elderflower drink, but this is in Germany so im not sure if this is going to be the same thing, in fact it definitely isn't but still nevertheless its called fritz?
