Ready to Drink Blackcurrant Juice - 12pk x 500ml by Ribena

⭐️💥⚡️Good buy great prezzie recommended! can`t go wrong :) ⭐️💥⚡️

Great drink but packaging was the worst I’ve seen. How it made it in one piece is amazing. And they just left it on the door step. My front door is right on a public footpath. Could of been stolen at any time. Other parcels that have been left on the doorstep have gone walkies.

Did the job perfectly. Convenient and easy to store. Great for lockdown gloom

taste good

I've been familiar with bottled Ribena for more than half a century and no matter what type of bottle it comes in, it remains as it always was. I have not tried the alternative flavors, nor have I ever bought Ribena in cartons. So my review is limited to the original blackcurrant drink and while my own taste has changed over the years, Ribena has never changed the original drink despite experimenting with alternatives. The blackcurrant is a fruit native to Britain and some other European countries, but its most important quality as a food is that it is rich in Vitamin C. It was once popular in America prior to being banned there early in the 20th century because blackcurrants were seen as a threat to the logging industry. The decision to continue the ban was eventually delegated to state level and some states now permit blackcurrants to be grown. Nevertheless, blackcurrants may struggle to regain their former American popularity. Meanwhile in Britain, Ribena was launched in 1936. Blackcurrants became popular in World War II because so many other fruits became hard to obtain and the government encouraged blackcurrant production by providing free blackcurrant drinks (actually Ribena without the brand name) to children, to give them that all-important Vitamin C. With peace restored, the Ribena brand went from strength to strength in its home market. As a post-war baby boomer, I was inevitably introduced to Ribena and it was my favorite drink as a child. My tastes changed and I grew out of it, but never forgot its medicinal value. As an adult, I have as far as possible avoided medicines and pills of any kind. I believe in letting my body learn to cope with the nasty stuff that comes along, at least for a while. When I feel the time is right to help nature cure me of my ills, I buy a bottle of Ribena. Whether it's because of the Vitamin C or because of the other blackcurrant nutrients I wouldn't know, but Ribena has helped me get over many a bad illness. There will be those who drink Ribena for the pure pleasure of it, as I did back in the fifties and sixties. As such, it can be drunk hot or cold, remembering that it is concentrated and needs plenty of added water. Medicinally, I always drink it hot. Those who follow my reviews may have wondered why I suddenly stopped just as I was getting into reviewing again after a long hiatus. Yes, I had a particularly nasty cold/flu/whatever and Ribena is aiding my recovery, which is by no means complete as I write this. Hey, Ribena is not a magic potion, merely a drink.
