Lucozade Energy Zero Pink Lemonade - 500ml

In Britain, Lucozade lives in the chiller cabinet of every corner shop, garage and supermarket, usually right next to the sandwiches. It is part of the lunchtime furniture, the drink that gets picked without much thought because it is always there.

That is exactly why people go looking for it once they have moved. You do not miss a drink because it was special. You miss it because it was in your hand five days a week, and the pink lemonade one was yours.

It comes in the familiar 500ml bottle, a size that fits a bag, a car door pocket or a desk. Put it in the fridge for a few hours before you open it, and give it a moment to settle if it has been rattling around on the way to you.

If you are rebuilding the full British meal deal, it wants a sandwich and a packet of crisps beside it. Plenty of people pick up a couple of bottles at once, on the reasonable grounds that one never survives the week.
