Fentimans - Botanically Brewed Beverages

Post by pengaldinho »

http://www.drinkfentimans.com/ or http://www.fentimans.com/

Just discovered this range of drinks. One local shop started selling the orange jigger, root beer and Victorian lemonade. First two are good but the lemonade with the touch of ginger and other stuff is mindbogglingly refreshingly amazing. I’m fucking addicted to them now, got two boxes of 12 last week and there all gone. What i want to know is has anyone seen these in dam? I'd love an ice cold Victorian lemonade with a fat spliff of lemon haze. :D I was thinking maybe in a bar because I thinks its primarily sold as a mixer.

Fentimans have been around for quite a few years and you're right in saying how great the Traditional Lemonade is.
Never seen them in Amsterdam but I'm partial to a bitter lemon when in a coffeeshop. You usually get given a Schweppes one.

Cheers, but Schweppes just aint the same. other drinks taste like water compared to Fentimans. I might check http://www.britishstore.nl/ or ship myself over a box before i go. :D

Yeah, I know what you're saying. It's like comparing Asda's own brand sparkling Cava to Dom Perignon Champagne.
I know that Amnesia use to do more quality soft drinks but I think they just have the generic Coke/7up/Schweppes/Spa drinks now. :(

I enjoy their cola. It's spicier and has more complex flavors than Coke or other mainstream colas. This is sipping soda...not something that I'd be chugging.
Why drink and drive when you can smoke and fly?

Add a dollop of vanilla ice-cream to your ginger beer for some summertime loveliness.
