    Football Special, a non-drinkers paradise. Only available in Donegal though.

    I heard that's brilliant, what's in it?

    It's a very sweet carbonated drink. When poured, it looks like beer (ale) with a creamy head.

    Lovely.

    Although I'm not strictly a non-drinker I do spend many nights as a designated driver. I have always loved Cidona, I don't get sick of it as quickly as I would with Coke.

    Blackcurrant cordial is lovely as well. Once in a blue moon I have some Red Bull - partly because of the price, partly because it's such a big amount of caffeine! It's a nice boost if you want it though, get you lively.

    I like Lucozade but I wouldn't get it in pubs, seems more watery. So that's about the extent of my drinks there. I'm happy with them anyway.

    It's not a conspiracy, it's just melted ice.
    The barman is probably scooping up some water as well as the ice cubes

    That's true. They're teeny bottles of it as well, so I suppose the ice adds up!

    American Cream Soda. You can't get it in pubs, but it's well tasty.

    Over here It'd be Coke or Lucozade or on occasion Cidona.
    When I was in Glasgow I was hooked on Irn-Bru.
    Appletiser would also be highly recommended in Irish pubs.:D

    Usually cranberry or orange juice. If I'm in porterhouse I'll get non-alcholic Erdinger. Czech Inn also do a half-litre bottle of something which is good if you're used to drinking pints.

    Totally think there's a niche market waiting to be filled. Coke etc are too harsh on the stomach to be drinking all night. Cranberry/orange can be a bit acidic & disappear quickly. Would like something in 500ml form. Maybe a non-carbonated fruit drink that's apple based to avoid the acidity
