Review: Robinsons 'Squash'd'

I appreciate that people might think this is an odd item to review on a Blog but: I love squash, I love Peach flavoured things and I love thing's in miniature so this is a great buy from my point of view.

So, in a nutshell, the lovely people at Robinsons have created a small squeezable bottle of squash, ideal to have in your handbag or lunch box and the like. I was sceptical at first, after all, who really needs this? and then I thought about it: camping, festivals, people in hospital or away from home and day to day hydration spring to mind. My best friend hates drinking water on it's own and always has to have a bottle of squash with her. With this she can just carry this and get a bottle of water or just ask for a glass of tap water and add this! Great for toddlers (just dilute with more water) and kids. 

I'm going to a day festival this summer where I can't take my own drinks in but I checked with the organisers and I'm allowed one of these so I'll be packing one in my backpack for sure. You should also be able to take them on an aeroplane, provided you haven't opened it before going through security - yey!

Overview!

Tried and Tested: Orange & Peach

Added to a Bottle of Chilled Water.

The Important Info on the Back

A little goes a long way and I have to admit, I was a bit keen with the first Squeeze! I made it a tad too strong but I added more water and it was fine, I'll know for next time! The flavour was really yummy, sometimes with Peach it can be a bit sweet and syrup-like but this tasted really fresh and fruity, just like flavoured water.

I think that it it's worth stating that this does taste more like flavoured water than typical squash and there is a difference between the two. Squash can sometimes be a bit bland or if it's too strong you get that 'burning' sensation on your tongue. This is different, and I can't quite put my finger on WHY. Perhaps because it's made with real juice? I don't know. I can tell you that it's really delicious and so easy to turn a bottle of water into something with flavour and really light and easy to take with you anywhere.

Average retail £2/£2.50 in supermarkets. It's more expensive than the bottles you buy to have at home but these are going to be SO handy over the summer months especially! 

Flavours Available: Orange and Peach, Summer Fruits and Apple and Blackcurrant - I can't wait to try the others! The packaging is recyclable too, always nice to know! 

All in all, my bottle of Squash'd will take pride of place in my handbag alongside my lipstick and other girlie essentials!
