    Hate the artificial taste of Lilt. Why anyone would drink most fizzy drinks other than quality Cola is beyond me. 
    Lilt has half the amount of sugar than Coca-Cola.

    Cola is rank. Have never liked it. Very rarely drink fizzy drinks but if I do it's either Lilt or R Whites/Schweppes lemonade.
    Love R Whites lemonade. Drink far too much of it if I am honest.
    Been trying to give it up, but it is my go to drink most night

    Can't say I'm too bothered about Lilt, it's OK but it ain't all that. I'm more concerned with the dumbing down of the Fanta brand. Fanta Orange is very good. Fanta Limon in gorgeous. Fanta Pineapple & Grapefruit, hmmm.

    I'm still sore about Brannigan's crisps.

    Disappointed, the tomato soup thread is much better than this.

    I always thought that a Fanta Limon or Fanta Naranja tasted better when abroad for some reason, perhaps it was the glass bottles?!?

    I've never quite gotten over them getting rid of Lilt Mango and Mandarin back in the late 90s.  Was so good.

    It’s not the sugar it’s the artificial taste I can’t stand. I’d include both of those lemonades too 

    I normally disguise the artificial taste of coke with Jack Daniels.
    I normally disguise the taste of Jack Daniels with a glass of Laphroaig

    Think we need to modernise the thread title, so we all get used to it!  :D

    The recipe is not the same. There is 1/3rd less sugar in the UK stuff courtesy of obese children and the sugar tax.

    But Orangina is better anyway.

    I’ve always considered a pint of lager or cider a better thirst quencher than this pop stuff.

    KA > Fanta

    The new (at least in China) zero calorie Vanilla Coke is also very good.

    Bacon Sarnie, salt and vinegar hula hoops and a can of lilt are the 'go to' hangover cure (well they were back in the day)

    Where will we get our totally tropical taste? 
    A can of Rio
    Rio to Lilt is like comparing Pickled Onion Space Raiders to Monster Munch. A poor imitation.

    Well give me a can of Rio then as Pickled Onion Space Raiders urinate all over Monster Munch.

    The problem with Lilt is the pineapple. If anybody has tasted Pompelmo which is basically Sparkling grapefruit it is surprisingly refreshing and tasty if consumed very cold. And I am no fan of grapefuit eaten as a fruit.
