It looks warm, needs to be ice cold and best used when you have a hangover.
agreed best hangover cure
Never had the inclination to try a hangover, but Irn-Bru is glorious. And yes, it needs to be ice cold.
And out of a glass bottle
No it's shite now
You preach the truth 🤟🏻
Perfect hangover fuel 💙
Yep especially after a night in Paisley...slainte...
@@eamonnclabby7067 Lucozade Sport I think works better or Powerade. Just down the whole bottle when ye wake up. Fae Killie so a few Killie pies anaw man oan a roll oot brownings. Sorted
You need to check out all the old classic Irn Bru TV commercial 😂😂😂
The snowman one 😂😂😂
Steamy windows in here. Nice rug mum.
@@Graham.moore.1 Both of the Snowman ones, they've done two
“Barr’s Irn Bru! Made in Scotland, with GIRDERS”
It must be ice cold and it cures hangovers! 🏴
Have you ever thought of trying to get into talking books. You have an amazing voice.
Just incredibly mellifluous, isn't she!
You need to try the 1901 version and the energy versions
Do we have to time travel 😮
Hey Amanda, have you seen any of the Irn Bru adverts?......very funny.
Group hug!
I hope she checks out the best Marmite adverts 😮😂
I’ve watched some of the urn bru but none of the marmite
I need to check them outn
Snowman one is the funniest 😂😂😂😂😂
at 71 I'm sort of semi addicted to it but then as a child I drank lots of Tizer and when I was under the weather with childhood problems Mum bought me Original Lucozade which you don't get these days (oh boy was that sweet)
Oh yes...
Irn Bru was Founded in Falkirk, Scotland by Robert Barr in 1875, it was initially sold as an 'aerated water' which is how soft drinks were known back then, Robert's son Andrew launched the drink in 1901 under the name 'Strachan's Brew'
Irn Bru is my favourite drink😊love it.
Irn Bru had it's production facilities in Parkhead Glasgow. I drink the original 1901 Vers which comes in the glass bottle and cans. 2 bottles a day ✌️
Goes lovely with cheese chips and gravy
Ice cubes in a glass pour it in, then try it (the ice reverses the carbonation process a bit so it's less fizzy and more tasty)
Dandelion and Burdock,Tizer...the latter was very popular when I was a child in the 70s and 80s,bit it's become much harder to get these days (in the London area anyway.Unlike Irn Bru,it doesn't seem to be stocked in Supermarkets)🎩
If you have not already tried it, go for Vimto. Available as squash or soda. The Northern England drink which is also popular in the Middle East. Contains actual fruit!
Needs to be ice cold Amanda to get the true flavour
The glass bottle original 1901 recipe is the one to go for ice cold the normal stuff is ok but the not a patch on the 1901 recipe
i agree amanda, it is an okay soft drink but not one i would choose over others,
Can't remember the last time I had it from a glass bottle. It tastes perfect fine from a plastic one. My favourite is IrnBru Extra.
they changed the recipe of IRN BRU a few years ago and it now tastes awful. you need to buy the 1901 version that they still sell. I found the original had a bubblegum flavour to it.
Amanda, did you ever have the nation dish of "Jersey Bean Crock" when you lived here? maybe you could make yourself one, there are recipes online for it.
Scotland's other national drink. Of course, there's the fact that Scotland is one of the few countries where Coke is not the best selling soft drink :) Awesome stuff.
True
some years ago BARS had a factory in Mansdfield Nottinghamshire we used to coollect the syrup from there to take up to scotland to the factory 26 tonnes at a time so irn brew is made from trees near sherwood forest not girders in scotland
I had a 2 litre bottle on Saturday, and that was without a hangover 🤣🤣💪👍🏴
If you are after the Glass bottle version, Home & bargains and B&M do the original 1901 version (best served cold!)
That version may taste the way I remember it, but I've yet to try. It's not been the same for years but the half sugar version is wank
The 1901 version tastes like the proper stuff that I drank in the 80s 😋
To be fare Amanda if you’ve chosen on with some sort of sweeter in it the Scott’s will not touch it, it has to be the original with all the sugars in it or forget it.
When I lived in Scotland the local Tesco’s stocked 70% original Irnbrew and 5% sugar free 25% original Coke. 😂
another of BARS drinks popular in the 60s and 70s was tizer pronounced tie zer we loved it as kids
Have a look at the old IRN BRU ads. Really funny !
" MUM" is my favourite.
Hi Amanda. Watching the video during my lunch with diluting juice. I had to switch to a bottle of irn bru also when you opened it!
Hi Amanda!
Try reciting a long poem or a short story, your voice is so soothing.
Stay Blessed ✨
Said it before, Amanda needs a podcast, read ghost stories or something 😁
@@naiboz Yes, literally it would be so amazing.
You can actually get the glass bottles of Irn-Bru 1901 in Sainsbury's in England now
Ice cold with a smoked sausage supper with salt n sauce obvs (it’s an Edinburgh thing)
When you said Strachan my brain automatically converted it to 'strawn' as that is how the popular Australian vocalist Shirley Strachan was pronounced.
Then I did a little digging and found that Strachan is also a legitimate pronunciation. I guess strawn is the devolution of Strachan in the same way wooster shire is the devolution of Worcester Shire.
You should watch some of the old irn bru commercials, made in Scotland. Especially the one with the ram raider granny on her electric scooter
2:49 just the facts mam just the facts.
Dandelion & Burdock
Cream Soda too !
Haven't had D & B since I was about 10 y.o. I should give it another try because it used to be one of my favourites..
Fentimans if you're going to these days
Sassperella...similar...
I drank a lot of it when I was younger. Still grab the odd bottle. But I'm getting old and prefer lemonade as a fizzy drink these days tbh. So I'd only buy it for a change up occasionally.
irn bru 1901 is the authentic one. i can relate how the one you tried doesn't really have a flavour as such. the 1901is slightly different.. the taste is there with both, but its very light i found.. unless really chilled.
Amanda try the 1901 old style irn bru (I found it in sainsbury's)
I think if you would have try the older style bru, before the ban the sugar laws came out you may have liked it a wee bit more.
Love the vids, keep up the grand work 😊
Their 1901 taste the closest to the original drink as it has changed over the years (I was born in the 70's) and not for the better and will taste better out a bottle than a can and it is basically made from bananas.
lol thanks very much
I liked it a lot before the sugar tax, after the sugar tax I poured a whole bottle down the sink and haven't bought it since. .
Iron brew is like marmite, you either like it or not. Barr also do really nice cream soda.
I do love a Dr Pepper. Try cream soda, Tizer or dandelion and burdock
Its a great hangover cure too....
When I was young we called it Ba Bru.
Ice cold Irn Bru with a dollop of 🍧and a long spoon...it is what rainy 🏴 Sunday afternoons are made for.
Hi Amanda, I fully agree with you and you don't have to like it. As a child I loved it and would drink nothing else but as an adult I think its flavoured sugar water with fizz. My childhood memory is a a drink with a more distinctive flavour but now I think its week and insipid. Some of the comments suggest drinking it cold but we never had that opportunity so maybe thats why it tasted better and cold suppresses certain flavours which is why lager beers are refrigerated as they taste horrible if warm
I quite enjoy an oasis citrus, its a still drink or j2o , fizzy drinks make me burp, 7up is the only one I don't burp with
i love how ppl seem to agree its a hangover cure defo works for me
Drink of the gods👏👏
Fizzy piss.
Hi Amanda, irn bru taste is to me "bubble gum" the original drink is 1901 and comes in cans and glass bottles Amazon uk sells them or try home bargains or B and M if you have either of these stores near to you, 1901 has more sugar content, the modern version you drank has artificial sweeteners in it because of the sugar tax that came in a few years back, i hope this info is of help to you.
Jersey is a lovely place visit friends there a lot👌🏻
Real name was barrs irn Bru..
Scots-shipwrecked Swedes. Swedes eat wierd things, so imagine what the Scots do-but their whisky is heavenly. Cheers from the Pacific West Coast of Canada.
*really good hangover cure*
Try Tizer, another one that's been around forever but the taste has changed since I was an ankle biter as the sugar has been reduced over the years.
Maybe if you come to the N of Spain you'll like to try the Voll-Damm, the "battle beer" here; it's a double malted 7.2 beer, the best one imo.
Hi Amanda, Sort of gone fizzy drinks in recent years although still like the occasional Lucozade even though it tastes nothing like it used to😢 My favourite Recreational drink (Since becoming Teetotal!) Is Yop!😊 Drinking Yoghurt, I've even started making my own version, Natural/Greek Yoghurt, Bit of milk, Orange Extract & Dessicated Coconut, Blend it all together et Voila😹 Nectar of the Gods🙏♥️X PS Loved the 'Something for Everyone' Line! There Certainly is!🤭🤪✌️👍
And they do have a Energy version now
Hello, again, Amanda. As you've just tried my 2nd favourite carbonated drink, Irn Bru, would you please try out Dandelion & Burdock drink, please? I'd like your opinion on it. Thanks.
Can you still get that? I haven’t tasted that drink for about 60 years.
It's nice! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Your reaction was pretty-much my reaction when I tried it. It's on a par with Lucozade (the original version) which is just sugar in carbonated water with a bit of colouring.
Try Tizer, very popular when I was a kid
Hey Amanda have you tried Yorkshire Tea with biscuit flavour? Give it a whirl, see what you think...I tried Iron Bru once years ago haven't had it since. 😋
well done for your attempt - your complete bafflement on tasting it was extremely funny! I believe your right - it is the only thing that tastes genuinely like orange - far more than oranges do! Oh, and you are absolutely stunning!
IRN BRU is nice, but you are so right about DR PEPPER. It's the best soft drink ever made. Me and my son's love it.
You should try Dandelion and Burdock.
The original, old school recipe was the bomb. Do g drink it anymore even when I’m
Hanging
Scotland is one of the few countries in the world where Coke is not soft number 1🎩
❤🏴🌹❤️
Reminds me of cream soda
Glass bottle, original recipe irn bru, ice cold. Try another of scotlands national drinks. Buckfast tonic wine. Made in England, 99% of its sales are in Scotland.
My friends and I used to mix Irn Bru with vodka before the likes of WKD and VK became a thing.
Makes you wonder if it is true that is was invented in 1889 in New York. Maybe Andrew Barr went to New York and had a drink and liked it and somehow got his hands on the recipe and then made it appear it was his invention. Does say SECRET RECIPE from 1901. Maybe the secret recipe is a stolen recipe lol!
hah who knows! :)
You drink Irn Bru with Vodka😂😂 or in the morning to cure a hangover. And like a previous post said the adverts are seriously funny well worth a review
The last time I drank Irn Bru with vodka... well maybe not the last time, actually I had a lot of very nice evenings, now I stop to think about it. But I remember two that didn't end ideally, but not because of me. They cut the sugar though so I can't drink vodka with it any more, half sugar I still feel like I'm drinking diet coke and vodka
Mr Fitzpatricks do a great iron bru cordial and many others like dandelion and burdock.😋 ps, I think it contains turmeric
Try Marmite next ❤❤
Yes and trowel it on really thickly to get the maximum taste impact. Half a jar should be about right......😊
Seriously though I think she has already tried it although I could be wrong.
I think the glass bottles are only available in Scotland.
ah okay, that would make sense :)
I have to admit i have never tried it!
Every Scotsman (or Scotswoman for that matter) has Irn Bru safely in the kitchen to cure that well intended hangover, Irn Bru and a bacon roll and your body is good to go....
I tried it years ago and same, no really flavour, it looks like it ought to be flavourful from the colour but it was just kinda meh, it was fizzy as hell so maybe that is the draw, I should try it again as my tastes have changed.
Try Lucozade, Irn Bru tastes like bubble gum to me . but , then a few years ago they did change recipe
jam rolypoly with custard
re: first made in USA? It could be based upon a US creaming soda, some of which have a similar flavour.
Try drinking it properly ie from a glass bottle that has been in the fridge for an hour or 2 it will be an entirely different taste.
The name was invented in America and England also had an iron brew drink. But the recipes are completely different. The strongman logo was also an English design adopted onto the Barr version. You should do the ads if you haven’t already. 👍
Your initial reaction says it all Amanda! "It's crap!" There's plenty of flavoured soft drinks out there, each to their own taste I guess - me?, yuk, to me it tats like watered-down Lucozade. Interested to see how you rate other drinks, like ginger beer et al. Notice, not one suggestion of trying alcohol!
Haha I’ll try some other ones ☺️
When I drink IRN BRU I close my eyes and I'm immediately transported to the summit of Ben Nevis wearing only a kilt and thinking of Bannockburn. Im from Romford Essex.
You used to be able to get an alcoholic Irn Bru WKD Irn Bru but not sure if you still can. When your Scottish boss drunk it did he used to shout out afterwards IRN BRU 32 LOL! U should watch all the Irn Bru adverts from yesteryear. Don't really see Irn Bru adverts much these days tbh!
Amanda, have you tried 'Dandelion and Burdock' at all? There are a number of different manufacturers, 'D&B' is a popular one.
I have never tried it
Barrs stopped making Irn Bru a few years ago. They now make a Frankenstein version full of artificial sweeteners. It is disgusting.
Always drink it when I'm not well
A really good swig was needed, not a sip. :)
Not a fan of original irn bru, I personally prefer the sugar free version! I think because of its less sharpness. Looking lovely as always and keep it awesome ❤️
The Scotch Sperm variant was by far the best hard to find nowaday though
I didn't know you lived and worked in The Channel Islands Amanda. What was your job, and how long did you live there?
while going Scottish, have you tried haggis?
Dr Pepper!?! It's fizzy medicine. Have you tried snails? They're an indelicacy. Also, oysters are uninteresting, but the creme de la creme of food to avoid is... tripe. Look in the OED under 'revolting'. It just says: see 'tripe'.
Evening Amanda x
They ruined it when they took the sugar out 😢
