Alright I started this thread to spread the word of the drink that is Irn Bru. This stuff is as they say down in London is the dogs b****cks. For those who haven't heard of it, it's a drink we here in Scotland drink. So if you love this stuff like me let us know :wink:

Irn Bru - made in Scotland, from girders!!!

Yep, I like it and I live in the south.  I don't see much of it in the shops, but I know sales outstrip Coke hands down in Scotland.  If I drink enough, my hair might just turn to a carroty hue...

I mostly just drink tea, beer and water, but Irn Bru is of a better class of soft drink than most biggrin.gif. It's the only way to make vodka potable.

I've never tried Irn Bru with vodka, but I don't think I'd want to laugh.gif Yep it's made from girders and I love how it can't be sold in the US cause they won't tell them whats in it laugh.gif I haven't had the chew bars since I was kid.

I'm such a traitor to my nation but I just don't like Irn Bru.  Obviously, I love the adverts, but I just can't bring myself to drink something that has been artificially made that colour.  I feel the same way about coke, and the green stuff we used to get at the school Christmas dances.

Do you Irn Bru fans also like deep-fried mars bars?   There's a chippy near me that does deep fried creme eggs but I really feel that's one step too far.  On the Irn Bru and vodka debate, I used to know someone who drank irn bru and peach schnapps, but just thinking about that makes my stomache turn

Why would you assume we eat deep-fried mars bars? Just because we like Irn Bru. But no I don't eat deep fried mars bars :wink:
