Basically apple cider brandy can be lethally strong after a meal. Why William the Conqueror won at Hasting he was pissed on Calvados. On trips many many years ago , we were buying directly from local farms , bottled in whatever they had available ( Perrier bottles etc. ) ....that stuff put hairs on your chest 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recently bought a soda stream so I could carbonate my own water and I drink lots of Twinings flavoured teas in the evenings 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many drinks does each bottle last for and do they make it easy to replenish them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Argos you just drop them off and also in other local shops. You save £14 bringing the empty one back. One of the best products I have ever bought. So easy to use. change bottles etc and bit of lime or lemon always keep two bottles in the fridge. Brilliant if not drinking booze and yes about 60 litres. I bought two extra bottles for the fridge. Cannot recommend more .............. brilliant product. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
