Lemonade in glass bottles...?

GeordieBarbie, 12 April, 2010 at 12:26 Posted on Planning 0 14

Can anyone tell me if there's any make of lemonade that comes in a glass bottle??

My mate (as discovered this weekend) is a bit fussy with alcoholic drinks and a white wine sprtizer is pretty much her only drink ? SO i wanted to get some lemonade to put on her table but a 2L bottle of Tesco Lemonade might look a bit too pikey! ?

Any ideas?

    Belvoir and Fentimans both do soft drinks in large glass bottles, including lemonade. The Fentimans one is a slightly different taste though as it has a little bit of ginger in (I can't taste it, but h2b insists it's too gingery for him!). Bottlegreen also have a range of soft drinks, but I don't think they do a lemonade one.

    Fentimans is the one I know, and I conacted their sales rep to see if I could buy bulk at all. They were useless, don't bother!

    Not sure if it's a scottish thing, but Barr's do glass bottles of Lemonade -

    Do you get these? You even get money when you take the bottle's back! ?

    So Tesco has proved fruitless ☹️ They did have Barr (but not lemonade) and Fretmans (sp?) but only the old fashioned lemonade.

    Mrs Spinks - where have you seen the Schwepps??

    If it gets poured into a glass bottle - will it not go flat??

    I did find little cans of sprite... ?

    We sell them in our pub, but we get them from our suppliers. Could you ask your local to sell you some?

    Alternatively...

    I'm not sure how real these are, but they seem good to me.

    Our Sainsbury's do little cans.

    Yes - we have a Waitrose nearby I could try.

    I've already got shed loads of Shloer for the drinks reception and meal, I'm just after some lemonade for my mate and mother to make white wine spritzers ?

    Do you know anyone with a Trade Card for either Makro or Costco, they supply to pubs & shops so might have them. Give one of them a ring it doesn't hurt to ask.

    M&S sell lemonade, ginger beer, dandelion & burdock etc in nice old-fashioned style glass bottles, about one litre I think.
