Does anyone else miss the REAL OLD taste of Tizer? I mean the real old-fashioned version? Can you still buy Tizer?


I can remember it being more popular than cola years back.

Old but spicey!

They made Tizer too sweet. I think you can still get it though.


Tizer vs Irn Bru - discuss.

Who needs karma when you know you're great already?

They are quite different I think. I know they changed the recipe for Tizer many years ago and yes, they made it sweeter. I have not tasted Tizer for many years but I like Irn Bru so I would vote for that.

Oh yes!  Another of my favourite whinges!  Tizer used to be delicious - now it tastes of sweet nothing!

It was the only thing to drink at children's parties in the sixties!

I'll never forget it - I got very drunk when I was 14 by hiding vodka in it!

You can still get Tab cola in the US but not the clear version. I have memories of Tab Clear always being on special offer at the supermarket so my mum used to buy loads of it ...

I have been looking at all the newsagents but no sign here yet. I read the snackspot reviews and apparently it doesn't taste like the US version ... more like black forest gateau! I definitely want to try it.

Does it have chunks of cake floating in it?
