| Lunchbox | Asda | Asda's Orange Juice and Spring Water, 4 x 250ml. A handy size bottle, but I found the black plastic band around the drinking top, difficult to peel off! This juice with added water, is yellow in colour and it presents pronounced orange notes that are backed by mouth-watering acidity. Competing Brands: Robinsons and This Water | 8 | £1.38 | Yes | No | No | |||||||||||||
| Lunchbox | Asda | Asda's Orange Juice and Spring Water, 4 x 250ml. A handy size bottle, but I found the black plastic band around the drinking top, difficult to peel off! This tropical drink with added water contains juice and flavours from orange, pineapple, white grapes, passion fruit, mango and lime. The rounded ripe fruit flavours are finished off with moreish acidic twist. Put a pack in the trolley! Competing Brands: Robinsons and This Water | 9 | £1.38 | Yes | No | No | |||||||||||||
| Sports Drink | Asda | Asda's Isotonic Mixed Berry Flavour, 500ml. A sports drink that delivers thirst quenching raspberry-like flavours backed by plenty of mouth-watering acidity. The slight downside is that you can taste the added sweeteners once swallowed. Competing Brand: Umbro | 8 | £0.39 | Yes | Sugar: Amber
Contains: Sweeteners | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Sports Drink | Asda | Asda's Isotonic Citrus Flavour, 500ml. An ideal drink for a thirsty palate. The assertive citrus flavours are balanced with just the right amount of sweetness. Competing Brand: Umbro | 9 | £0.39 | Yes | Sugar: Amber
Contains: Sweeteners | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Sports Drink | Asda | Asda's Isotonic Orange Flavour, 500ml. This sports drink presents plenty of orange notes, but once swallowed that added sweetener flavour kicks in. Competing Brand: Umbro | 7 | £0.39 | Yes | Sugar: Amber
Contains: Sweeteners | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Energy Drink | Asda | Asda's Blue Charge High Impact Stimulation Drink, 250ml. If you require energy or feeling tired - then a can of this caffeine and sugar loaded drink should do the trick. The pronounced pear drop like tastes, are balanced with just the right amount acidity. You'd have no problem drinking the second can. Competing Brand: Red Bull | 9 | £0.44 | Yes | Sugar: Red
Contains: Caffeine (30g per 100ml) & Taurine | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Energy Drink | Asda | Asda's Diet Blue Charge High Impact Stimulation Drink, 250ml. This is as good as the regular Blue Charge! However, because sweeteners have been substituted for the sugar in this diet version, the energy levels are down to 41Kj - compared with 509kj. Dieters that require energy may find that regular version is the better option. Competing Brand: Red Bull | 8 | £0.44 | Yes | Contains: Caffeine (30g per 100ml), Taurine, Sweeteners & A Source of Phenylalanine | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Energy Drink | Asda | Asda's Diet Cranberry Blue Charge High Impact Stimulation Drink, 250ml. The added cranberry juice adds another layer of flavour to this pear drop like drink.

Competing Brand: Red Bull | 8 | £0.44 | Yes | Contains: Caffeine (30g per 100ml), Taurine & Sweeteners | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Tonic Water | Asda | Asda's Extra Special Indian Tonic Water with Tahitian Lime,1L. Well worth a punt. This ES does not have the quinine pungency of the brand, but its softer style and its integrated lime twist will be preferred by some GandT drinkers. Competing Brand: Schweppes | 9 | £0.68 | Yes | Sugar: Amber | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Tonic Water | Asda | Asda's Low Calorie Indian Tonic Water with a hint of Lemon Flavour,1L. This is a cheaper alternative to the brands. The lemon flavour is much more than the label suggests, and it does not have the quinine punch of the leading brand. Competing Brands: Schweppes and Britvic | 7 | £0.43 | Yes | Contains: Sweeteners | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Soda Water | Asda | Asda's Soda Water,1L. This is a cheaper alternative to the brands. Side by side with the leading brand it comes second, but most drinkers wont be able to tell the difference when it is used as a mixer. Competing Brands: Schweppes and Britvic | 8 | £0.44 | Yes | No | No | |||||||||||||
| Bitter Lemon | Asda | Asda's Bitter Lemon,1L. Put it in the trolley. Much improved since the last time I tasted it. More mouthfilling and it delivers bitter lemon notes from sip to swallow. Competing Brands: Schweppes and Britvic | 8 | £0.44 | Yes | Sugar: Amber | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Bitter Lemon | Asda | Asda's Diet Bitter Lemon,1L. Put it in the trolley. The pronounced zippy lemon bite is first class, and it has the advantage of helping to mask the flavour of the added sweetener on the palate and the swallow. Competing Brands: Schweppes and Britvic | 9 | £0.44 | Yes | Contains: Sweeteners | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Cranberry | Asda | Asda's Diet Bitter Cranberry,1L. Put it in the trolley. The spiky cranberry flavour is top notch, straight from the bottle or as mixer try it with fresh orange. Competing Brands: Schweppes and Britvic | 9 | £0.44 | Yes | Contains: Sweeteners | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Ginger Ale | Asda | Asda's Low Calorie Ginger Ale, 1L. Plenty of fiery ginger notes on the nose, palate and finish. Competing Brands: Canada Dry and Schweppes | 8 | £0.44 | Yes | Contains: Sweeteners | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Bitter Lemon | Asda | Asda's Extra Special Sicilian Bitter Lemon, 1L. Put it in the trolley. This delivers pronounced and rounded bitter lemon flavours from start to finish. As good if not better than the leading brand! Competing Brands: Schweppes and Britvic | 10 | £0.63 | Yes | Sugar: Red
Contains: Sulphur Dioxide | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Sparkling Juice | Asda | Asda's Sparkling Tropical Fruit Juice and Sparkling Water, 1.5L. This bottle has 60% fruit juice and 40% sparkling water. This delivers pronounced orange aromas and tastes that are integrated with a gentle spritz.. The downside is that the added water makes it light and thin on the palate. | 7 | £0.50 | Yes | Sugar: Amber | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Sparkling Juice | Asda | Asda's Sparkling Red Grape and Berry Fruit Juice and Sparkling Water,1.5L. This bottle contains 60% fruit juice and 40% sparkling water. It is the colour of red wine, and has the flavour of a watery Cherryade. | 6 | £0.50 | Yes | Sugar: Amber | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Grape Spritzer | Asda | Asda's Extra Special Non Alcoholic Rose Grape Spritzer, 75cl. This is made with a mix of red and white grapes, elderflower extract, flavouring and sparkling water. It is the colour of rose wine, but that's where similarity with the grape or wine ends. The dominant elderflower flavour does not work with the other tastes which makes it a two sip rather than a two glass drink. | 4 | £1.28 | No | Contains: Sweeteners | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Grape Spritzer | Asda | Asda's Extra Special, Non Alcoholic Red Grape Spritzer, 75c.l This tastes nothing like wine or any other drink I've tasted, however, it is not unpleasant, but I doubt you'd be pouring a second glass. | 5 | £1.28 | No | Sugar: Amber | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Grape Spritzer | Asda | Asda's Extra Special Non Alcoholic Grape, Cranberry and Raspberry, Rose Spritzer, 75cl. The addition of cranberry and raspberry flavours make this the best of Asda's ES non-alcoholic spritzer range. | 6 | £1.28 | No | Sugar: Amber | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Tonic Water | Asda | Asda's Indian Tonic Water, 1L. There is an excellent flavour balance between the quinine bite and the sharp citric flavours and it works well as a mixer for a GandT. However, straight up, the added sweeteners leave their twang after the swallow. Competing Brands: Schweppes and Britvic | 8 | £0.43 | Yes | Sugar: Amber
Contains: Sweeteners | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Coca Cola & Pepsi | Asda | Asda's Cola Diet Caffeine Free, 2L. This just won't cut it for Cola aficionados, it lacks bite, flavour and the sweetener kicks in a little too much after the swallow. Competing Brands: Coca Cola and Pepsi | 5 | £0.43 | Yes | Contains: Gluten, Barley & Sweeteners | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Coca Cola & Pepsi | Asda | Asda's Cola Diet, 2L. This big bottle delivers cola flavours, but of not of the taste quality of the two leading brands. Competing Brands: Coca Cola and Pepsi | 6 | £0.43 | Yes | Contains: Gluten, Barley & Sweeteners | No | No | ||||||||||||
| Coca Cola & Pepsi | Asda | Asda's Cola, 2L. Much better tasting than Asda's diet and caffeine free Colas, and certainly worth a punt as an alternative to the big brands. Competing Brands: Coca Cola and Pepsi | 8 | £0.43 | Yes | Sugar: Amber
Contains: Gluten & Barley | No | No | ||||||||||||
