Squash with sugar?

housebuyer143

Not sure if this is in the right place, but anyone know any squash or cordial without sweeteners? 
I drink water because sweetners give me the nastiest taste in my mouth, but my son won't and he isn't enjoying the taste of sweetners either.
I can literally only find Vimto that's not sugar free 🙄

Belvoir do a range of squash/cordial but a touch more expensive, they seem to be available through most major supermarkets - have just looked at Ocado - they have:

Lemon & Garden mint

Raspberry & Lemon

Strawberry & Lime

Elderflower & Rose

Blackcurrant

Blueberry & Blackcurrant

Ginger

Orange

Elderflower

Lime

(All are sugar - non-sweetener)

Dont know about any aimed at kiddies, there are various more adult ones like Belvoir cordials or Roses Lime plus Waitrose own brand have some non-sweetner but again things like elderflower or Cherry & Berry

There's Teisseire in "full sugar" options (passionfruit and Grenadine), plus Roses lime cordial, and M&S and Bottle Green and Rock's branded ones...

Unfortunately, the supermarket and other versions with no sweetners /all sugar are now the premium option. 

I really hate sweetners, I'd really like for manufacturers to make "sweetner free" and "sweetner containing" versions of their products, rather than having ones with sweetner/sugar or sweetner only.

I guess a lot must be considering re-formulating without Aspartame given all the recent news.

Many of them don't use aspartame already - I think it's fizzy drinks like 7up, diet coke etc. that have aspartame in.

This has always bothered me. Put a sugar tax on drinks to force them to use sweetners without any consideration for those who can't have sweetners and clearly without any evidence they are safer than sugar.
We now have to pay a fortune to get any drink without the stuff!

Sainsbury’s High Juice - Orange or Apple and Mango.

Oddly enough, try Ikea.  I can't check the ingredients online but in the past I've used their cordial (lingonberry or elderflower) to top up homebrew because it was proper sugar not sweeteners.

We buy a brand called Papas. Its not cheap and its online but I think its free delivery for 6 bottles, but once again more adult tastes
