Drink Ten

dinevalesco

hey guys, i know i'm in the wrong forum here now but i couldn't find any forum for soft drinks - to which my drink query belongs.

when my girlfriend was a kid growing up, her mother (now deceased) used to buy a drink called 'drink ten' (i think that's what it was called. i think it was made up of ten different nutrients or ingredients anyway). i'm trying to source info about it - i know it's probably not being made anymore but i just wanted some info on it. i'd appreciate any help.

thanks, ronan.

I do remember that drink, it was around about ten years ago as I used to drink it in college. I remember being addicted to the stuff, which was bad as it was so expensive! Have you tried the ole google?

thanks for getting back to me - delighted somebody has heard of it! i've tried the google search alrite but the terms are so broad i'm getting all sorts of results. even if i knew the brand (britvic, etc.) i could narrow it down. thanks for your help so far

the beer revolu

I remember that.
It was a mixed fruit multivitamin drink.
It was quite thick and came in a tall, tapered, brown, glass bottle with a wide mouth.
I think the brand might have been Dr. (Something)

Twas might for a hangover!!

thanks again guys, that's good info. googling is a bit of a needle in a haystack but i'm confident of coming across it. i personally have no recollection of it but i'm sure i'll come across it. keep the info coming, i appreciate it.

Yea I remember it too - we used get it in our house - was lovely! Everthing that beer revolu says is spot on as i remember it but sorry I can't add anything to it. I'll ask my family maybe they'll come up with something. It was available widely enough I'm sure - think we used to get it in supermarket, Dunnes or Tesco. Think it disappeared alright as me mam would surely have kept buying it

Oh think it was Drink 10 rather than Drink Ten if that's any help

thanks a million guys - really appreciate all the help so far

hi op yep Drink 10 think it had a monkey on the bottle too its still available had it in Dunnes in saggart village when I ran the liqour dept there up to this June.

hope that helps you out.

edit: its beside the orange juices on the top shelf at the right hand side just before the little multi packs of juice!!!!

Its still in supermarkets, made n Germany. I switched to a cheaper Lidl version a few years ago but must try it again next week, very addictive.

thanks for the tips guys, we're getting closer. i was onto the manager in dunnes saggart village and he said he'd check it out for me and gimme a buzz back. i'm based in cork and there's no sign of it down here. i'll keep ye posted.

hi again guys,

just to keep ye updated - i was speaking with the manager in dunnes saggart and he said that they don't stock it as they're a small store and don't have a great selection.
i think i've hit a dead end unfortunately

any helpful info i'd appreciate it,
ronan
