Canada's Top Reviewed British Shop
From Irn-Bru to Ribena, this is where water gets politely ignored.
Some drinks earn permanent fridge status. Not because anyone sat down and decided it, but because water feels a bit unfinished until Robinsons has had a word with it, and because one can of Irn-Bru rarely stays lonely for long.
This is the part of the order where people add Ribena concentrate, a few Barr cans, maybe ginger beer or lemonade, then get mildly annoyed with themselves for not buying more the first time. Worth keeping a few in, especially the bottles and cans you only remember once the craving has already become inconvenient.
A can of Irn Bru requires very little negotiation. A bottle of squash expects you to contribute some water, which seems fair enough. British drinks come ready for the fridge or concentrated for the cupboard; it helps to know which agreement you are entering into.
Some collections are for browsing. This one is usually for spotting the bottle or can you meant to add five minutes ago. The range leans into the British drinks people actively look for: Barr favourites such as Irn-Bru, Cherryade, Limeade, Orangeade, Pineapple and Dandelion & Burdock; Robinsons squash and barley water in Orange, Lemon, Summer Fruit and Apple & Blackcurrant; plus Ribena, Tango, R. White’s, Old Jamaica, Ben Shaws, Lucozade and Vimto. Whether you are filling the fridge in Halifax, adding a few bottles to a Toronto order, or finally sorting out that missing blackcurrant concentrate in Vancouver, this collection keeps the familiar staples in one place.
Expect the louder side of the British soft drinks shelf: 330ml cans of Irn-Bru, Tizer, Cherryade, shandy, lemonade, ginger beer and fruitier oddballs that somehow still make perfect sense. There is Tango in the mix, alongside R. White’s and Old Jamaica, so the collection covers both everyday favourites and the more specific picks people tend to search for by name.
Robinsons does a lot of the heavy lifting here, with 1L squash, 850ml barley water and flavours that are far more noticeable once they are gone. Ribena Blackcurrant Concentrate, Vimto squash and the occasional Swizzels bottle stop the range feeling too sensible. These are the bottles that end up in kitchens from Ottawa to Calgary, in Montréal and Kitchener, and in repeat orders heading to Victoria, Saint John and St. John’s.
For anyone searching for British drinks in Canada without wading through vague substitutes, this is a straightforward place to start. Orders ship from Canada, which makes it easier to stock up on cans, cordials and concentrates without the long wait. Whether you are ordering to Edmonton, Burlington, Dartmouth or Charlottetown, it is a practical way to keep the familiar bottles around rather than only thinking of them after dinner.

Irn Bru, Cherryade, Dandelion and Burdock. Some fridge shelves are practically a family album, except somebody keeps drinking the exhibits. Our British drinks range brings the familiar cans and flavours together in Canada, with a few ideas for the people who always want something different.
Choose a fizzy favourite for lunch, something gingery for the evening, or milkshake mix for a completely separate sort of craving. Your fridge may well want one of everything, and we are in no position to argue.
Irn Bru, Cherryade and Dandelion and Burdock each attract a different sort of loyalty. Choose the can you recognise first, or let somebody else introduce you to the drink they have been talking about for years.

View full detailsIrn Bru, Cherryade, Raspberryade, Dandelion and Burdock, Tango Orange and sparkling Vimto all have a place in our fridge, with Old Jamaica Ginger Beer for anyone after more of a kick. American Cream Soda and Red Kola are there for the truly devoted.
The fizzy purple drink a great many British children grew up on, with grape, blackcurrant and raspberry behind its fruity, slightly mysterious flavour. Ours is the Original Sparkling can, ready to drink straight from the fridge, and the Vimto Chew Bar is there if you would like it to last longer.
Our Halifax shop stocks it in the Barr 330ml can, ready for the fridge. It is a deliciously dark soft drink that shares its roots with root beer and sarsaparilla, which makes it an easy thing to introduce to a Canadian friend.
Banana is on our shelf, with Strawberry and Chocolate beside it, and all three go out from Halifax. The banana tub asks for two level teaspoons in cold milk and claims to make 55 glasses, a figure no British household has ever tested.
