    Ah yes, the old “swamp water” recipe of adding whatever was lying around.
    That said, grade-school me & friends did come with an “official” Swamp Water: equal parts coke, sprite, and orange juice (with pulp).
    You can sub in local equivalents as you like but the point is one part brown, one part clear, one part pulpy juice.
    Tastes much better than it looks.

    Hey Bim! I think the reason for the 'head' when coffee is added is because the semi-dissolved coffee particles are causing the dissolved CO2 to come out of solution by giving it a place to anchor itself (sort of like acting as a catalyst)

      It's the increased surface area. I'm pretty confident that it's the same effect seen with Mentos. There's thousands of small divots in a Mentos, and that gives the CO2 a place to "anchor and escape". The reason the reaction is smaller with instant coffee might be that it dissolves too fast.

    Actually there is a fizzy water and coffee drink that’s sometimes sold in coffeeshops, called espresso tonic. It’s fantastic as long as barista knows what they’re doing with their espresso and don’t use schweppes tonic. The downside is it tends to hit quite hard (something to do with oral absorption I presume but not quite sure don’t quote me on that).
    Also, coke + instant coffee mix is student’s “all-nighter” drink in some countries, so not sure how popular it is in UK

    Inspired by this video, I immediately poured some Dandelion and Burdock into a glass, added a teaspoon of coffee (in-date, I'm afraid), and stirred. I can happily confirm it is one of the worst things I've ever put into my mouth, and I've had some questionable friday nights, which I regretted within an instant. Not only did my stomach churn at the foul concoction I'd just forced it to gurgle, but I can _feel_ the taste of it in the back of my mouth. It's much alike how I imagine it would feel to walk into the remains of reactor 4 and hold a chunk of the elephant's foot in the back of one's throat.

    I didn't even look, so here goes anyway:
    The reason the coffee makes it froth is the same reason Mentos does. It's the granular nature of the the dry coffee that gives the dissolved gasses a place to attach and release from suspension. Added to that is (probably) the frothing agents in the coffee itself. I'm unsure of that, not knowing how UK instant coffee may differ from US

      The only thing is that the drink still frothed even after the coffee had been made up with water & the granules dissolved before it was added to the pop, so that would suggest that that it's not the granules themselves causing the frothing (perhaps a chemical reaction instead ????) & no, UK instant coffee (assuming it's just "plain" instant coffee which it looked like that jar was) doesn't have any "frothing" agents.

    I'm no food scientist, (though I am a distiller so recipe/product development is a thing I deal with on a near-daily basis) but I can personally attest to Coke with coffee being a thing here in the US and it IS rather tasty. It's becoming easier to find in the stores locally, too. Of all the drinks you have up there to pair with coffee, I think Coca-Cola or Pepsi would be the best two, just going off of their base flavours and the ingredients used. Dr. Pepper might well work, but being as it's advertised as having 23 flavours involved in it, I don't know how well the coffee would play out or come through.

    They used to advertise to make Dr Pepper hot during the holidays. You heat the soda to 180 degrees then pour it over a thin slice of lemon (thin is key the lemon can become overpowering quickly) before enjoying. Maybe nix the lemon and try to make a hot coffee Dr pepper.

    Mr. May aka James. You had a terrific tv show with Oz Clarke about wine and drinking for Britain. In that drinking for Britain you bought a piece of land from some wine guy. My question is, since your idea was to grow "beer" in that plot of land, Have you grown "beer" there and if so, will that be used to brew beer and served in your pub? I need answers for this so I will keep commenting this same question for all the videos in foodtribe. It has been a while

    We did that when I was a young teen and we went to dinner to a pizzeria with buddies. But we also mixed in leftover chips, mayo, ketchup and the occasional olive or artichoke piece from a quattro stagioni. We’d each tip 1000 lire and give all to the guy who dared to drink it.

    I used to do so similar when I went on holiday at an all inclusive hotel in Spain/Majorca when I was like 6 as they let you free reign of the dispensers (and who doesn't love sugar?). Coke + Fanta Orange + Fanta Lemon + Sprite all together is actually surprisingly nice.
    I've never been on an all inclusive as an adult, that would probably be quite dangerous adding alcohol to the mix 🤣
