    Tesco do their own brand Cream Soda if that is any good to you.

    I remember loving Shannon Minerals 'lime juice and soda' as a kid. 20p a bottle. Ah memories :D

    OP, as far as I know 'Country Spring' do a version. Theirs is called 'American Cream Soda'. Have definitely seen it in Dunnes before.

    Have been looking for this aswell, I think I might have posted on the retro boards before about it.

    Its easy to get Clear American Cream soda nowadays but it tastes and smells different.

    The older stuff from the 80's and early 90's that was specifically a Yellow colour
    had a very unique smell off of it (be great if perfume or aftershave smelled like that Mmmm yummmy) and it tasted much better.

    One weird thing for me was out of all the different Soda/Lemonades/fizzy drinks
    for some reason any time I drank it as a youth it gave me a stitch in my side
    after drinking one of the 20p bottles of it.

    The newsagent in the Crescent Shopping center used to sell Jones sodas
    they do a cream soda thats clear and tastes alright or you can get the "Spring" 2l brand in
    Tesco.
