The Fruit Pastilles lollies are delicious, 5 different fruit flavours and really refreshing on a hot day. Very similar to the Rocket but 5 rather than 3 flavours.
The met Office today said It's been the hottest spring and May since records began (1881) 😂 I've sat in my house with a coat on 😂 I wonder what they're up to ❤ from Northeast England ❤️
@@oopsdidItypethatoutloud They changed how they took the temperature readings, something about ground and ambient temperatures. And they take readings from next to airports and under motorway bridges..
The classic “Rocket” Lolly ice is the ZOOM. The classic milk lolly is the “Mini Milk”. I love “FAB’s” by the way. My favourite of that type would be the Pineapple Mivvy or Pineapple Split. My absolute favourite Lolly is “The Feast” - chocolate and ice cream.
I used to like feasts as a child but there were not many options back then. These days I really don't like them - something about the solid chocolate in the middle is unappealing, I prefer a crunchie blast or a mars ice cream.
When I saw the name on the lolly, the memory of those ads gave me an instant nostalgia hit 😊 Except I don’t remember feeling it was a creepy voice lol Back from the time R Whites lemonade came in glass bottles (presumably with a deposit on them?) Gosh - that must be 50 years ago! 😬
It seems that the R Whites lollies only came about in 2012, according to a quick websearch. Apparently they did a new series of 70s-style ads with the original actors to mark the launch.
Frozen Orange Jubbly was my favourite as a child. Not exactly an ice lolly as it didn't come on a stick. It was in a triangular shaped carton. A lump of orange flavoured ice. When it thawed out, you had an orange drink.
It’s funny that you said ice lolly sounded like something a child would say or was childish because to me popsicle sound like something a child would say or is childish 😂
@@nilsdesperandum oh yeah both are fine just made me chuckle that's all. Tater tots always makes me laugh too I remember once watching 60 days in and 2 convicts fought over an unpaid debt of tater tots and it sounded so child like 😂
Feast (nutty) with the block of choc in middle and Magnums, our ice lollies used to be much bigger when I was young. Used to give my little kids the mini milks (milk lollies), they loved em. We have had so many different lollies to choose from over the years.
@@divegabe Oh, I love those! I've been going through entire boxes at quite an alarming rate lately... But yeah, you definitely won't regret trying them!
1854 was when the freezer was invented. They probably would of made more money selling the miracle process to freeze stuff 9 years before it was possible but instead went with the drink because thats a warm lolly.
Alanna - can't believe you of all people haven't discovered the joys of homemade CIDER ice lollies! What a joy on a warm Summers' afternoon (if we ever get one....) (I used to love a Mivvi)
I'd like to take this moment to say something that's been on my mind for a while. Orange ice lollies tasted better when they were wrapped in paper, not plastic.
I ate hundreds of Zoom and Fab ice lollies in the 1960s because Lyons Maid told me that by doing so I would save the world. Zoom was particularly important because it was a missile that even saved London on one occasion. Look at "HD Thunderbirds Advert Compilation (Kellogg's Sugar Smacks plus Zoom and FAB Ice Lolly Commercials)" from "Century 21 Films" for more details. Zoom also had collectable Gerry Anderson Thunderbirds cards which was a big reason to eat them. The rocket that you ate was a Zoom clone.
FAB is best eating in stages. Choc, white icing then the strawberry ice. Taking care not to damage the layers below until you’ve finished the one above.
Milk based ice lollies have been around in Britain since at least the 1960s. I can remember having Lyons Maid Sea Jets in about 1965, they were another TV programme tie in, this time it was Stingray.
From my childhood it was lolly ices on the wooden sticks. Popsicles are those long plastic wrapped multiple E number flavoured, coloured and sugared water that your mum would get in a big box from the pantry and chuck a pile into the freezer for a few hours. No stick needed. You peeled the top and pushed the ice through the plastic wrapping.
Ice Lollies to try if they're still around, Rowntrees Fruit Pastels, Solero, Calippo, sun lolly (in a tetrapack), Mr Freeze Pops (but you need to freeze them yourself). There are also various own brands in different flavours, and styles, You can get similar iced lollies to the R.Whites, but by different manufacturers in flavours like Cola, Strawberry, and Orange.
I like a Cornish Strawberry Mivvi but if I am craving luxury then a Magnum. Check out the R White's lemonade commercials from the 1970's and 1980's. They will leave yo with an ear worm which you won't be able to get out of your head. You'll hate me for it later
We (UK) have Ice Pops. They're long thin bags of flavoured sugar water that go in the freezer. Basically it's poor quality pop (but not fizzy) that gets iced.
Fruit Pastel lollies are a must, really good, my favourite lolly is a 'Solero, Red Berry' lolly they're also made in the 'Exotic' flavour but I prefer the berry more, it has an Ice Cream centre with Sorbet on the outside.
Never knew that.thanks.rrrrrr whites lemonade.rrrrr whites!trying to give it up but it's 1 of those nights rrrr whites.as if cheap lemonade was the equivalent of smack😜😫
I remember the mini milk from my childhood, an ice cream van would visit our semi-remote village once a week in the summer and this was the only way of having anything like this at home because we didn't have a freezer, the mini milk was by far the cheapest option at 8p, and would only ever be considered if one could not afford something else. I remember being shocked when I visited my friend in the comparative metropolis of Huddersfield that sometimes ice cream vans drove around (with chimes on) as late as 11pm, but then his mum pointed out that they were probably selling drugs.
When I was a kid in the 1960s we saw the launch of the Fab lollies and the Zoom ones of which the Tesco "Rocket" one is a copy. It's funny to me that you did not like the Fab lolly as that was specifically marketed at girls and women. Our Mum loved them! 🙂
Popsicle is a Good Humor-Breyers brand of ice pop consisting of flavored, colored ice on a stick. An ice pop is a liquid/cream-based frozen dessert on a stick. Unlike ice cream or sorbet, which are whipped while freezing to prevent ice crystal formation, an ice pop is frozen while at rest, becoming a solid block of ice.
I agree that an ‘ice lolly’ should not contain ice cream. However, there are some great hybrids with both water-ice and ice cream content, of which my favourite is the Walls Tropical Fruit Solero. For a pure water-ice lolly, my favourite is the M&S Valencia Orange Fruit Lolly - it has really deep flavour that lasts right through the ice melting. Yum!
The two main ice lolly makers (from ice cream vans) in the 1960s/70s wee Lyons Maid and Walls. 'FAB ' had a tie-in with the "Thunderbirds" puppet Tv show.and you got a picture card of the characters or vehicle in the wrapper . Rocket was called ZOOM!
If you liked the Whites lemonade lolly then you would have loved a Walls lemonade sparkle which they sadly don't sell anymore but was the definitive lemonade lolly we all remember........They did an orangeade version too.
As a kid I always loved Fab but I also had a real favourite called a Mivvi which was an Ice Cream with a fruity outer ice lolly covering of strawberry!
Quite a few people have mentioned Magnums. They are of course lollies - they're on a stick - but they still fall at Alanna's first hurdle as they are ice creams.
The offensive Rocket lollies are the no, or low sugar ones. All supermarkets have their own version (probably all made by the same manufacturer), I haven't seen an original Rocket lolly in decades.
You used to be able to get Cider ice lollies when I was young. I know you like cider so you could look out for them. You may have to visit a shop with a big ice lolly freezer or an ice-cream van.
Alannah. The shape of the ms molly's is what we used to call a popsicle in England. I would suggest it is the brand R Whites that has been around since the late 1800s and not the ice lolly, just because freezers would not have been around back then. My favourite ice lolly is a Strawberry Mivvy , which is an ice cream centre, covered with a strawberry ice.
There was once one called a haunted house lolly. It was white and very nice. My favourite now is a solero. Since you don't appear to like milk based lollies, I suggest you try the Asda cider flavoured lollies.
FAB Ice lollies they take me back to my childhood in the late 1970’s early 80’s. The FAB lollies used to be big back in my childhood. Love them. If you don’t like the milk, then you won’t like Milk lollies.
I love a raspberry or strawberry mivvi, it's vannila ice cream covered in raspberry/strawberry ice sorbet onna stick. (Identical to a Strawberry split.) A lot of the ice lollies nowadays are a poor reflection on lollies from the 80's. They've "new and improved" them all to taste the same and cost as little as possible to manufacture.
Ice lolly without a wrapper - reminds me of when I opened up a multipack of ASDA crisps and found a sealed inflated completely empty bag among those containing crisps. So surprised that I kept it as a trophy rather than complaining to ASDA. R Whites - who else remembers the R Whites lemonade TV adverts? ('I'm a secret lemonade drinker - R Whites, R Whites....')
Don't worry about not liking FAB, I don't know anyone that likes it. My favourite current ice lolly is Pineapple Coconut & Lime ice lolly which Sainsbury's and Tesco have their own brands, its very refreshing.
You have a jumper on? I got a down coat on indoors today. At work my office is a north facing cube with the north facade facing out - over 50% of the area being single glazed windows with steel frames and the rest of the wall being very thin concrete panels - the building was constructed when society expected nuclear energy to make heating cost-free, which never happened. No heating and heavy showers flowing down the outside of the glass making the inside of the glass feeling like a giant ice lolly sheet (when water evaporates outside the inside freezes). I was making all kinds of typing errors because of frozen fingers. You people down South should not complain.
There is no doubt that my favourite as a kid was the ZOOM!!! Although I adore a good Fab! but the one i truly miss is the Chunky Choc Ice. Alas, magnums have made them obsolete.
I don't know if they have them in the UK, I'm in AU, but my fave 'ice lollies' are either calipso or splice, splice I guess is ahybrid icecream/ice lollie as the centre is ice cream, creamy delicieous icecream.
You can have ice lolly any time of the year if it's raining, sunshine, snowing, cloudy there truly an all year round treat. The best ones are round trees fruit pastels ones.
I buy lollies in the depths of winter. I love milky lollies - those cheap ones from Tesco, Ms Molly's, are lovely. 7/10 Tesco rockets are nice too. The pineapple is unusual and gorgeous. 8/10 But you missed the best ones on your trip to Tesco: Strawberry and Apple Water Ice. 10/10 As a cider drinker you'll love the Cloudy Apple. 10/10 And the Valencia Orange are sublime. 11/10 I know it's Tesco-centric and I'm sure the other supermarkets have their own great ones, but it's all Tesco near me.
5:06 The Ice lolly made of *R Whites* Lemonade hasn't been around since 1845. Only the *R Whites Lemonade* has. The Ice lolly is a recent thing (ie) available since about 1980 ish.... Someday, you have to try a Rum & Raisin choc ice.. they have always been my favourite. But if it has to be a lolly. I'd choose an *Orange Split* .
as a kid i loved the Cow branded ice loilie, yep all milk forgot its exact name, small cylinder type thing , anyone (this would be the 80s). To be honest milk is still at 50 the only cold drink i drink now, it outlasted fizzy drinks, beer, whiskey Milk for the win
You had to mention the weather! Your definitely becoming more british 😁 I used to love an ice lolly that was Banana flavoured on the outside with a soft toffee centre. I think they were called Lord Snooty's for some reason.😁
Some of the stronger contenders for ice lolly of the year to try are (imho): Refresher Callipo Then the lolly ice cream crossovers: Strawberry Mivvi Walls Solero
what's your favourite ice lolly??
Kulfi
Whilst im on do Canadians have ice cream floats ?
Scoop of vanilla ice cream plonked in a glass of cold limeade
Anything that is orange!!
The Fruit Pastilles lollies are delicious, 5 different fruit flavours and really refreshing on a hot day. Very similar to the Rocket but 5 rather than 3 flavours.
Milky and chocy are code for "not real milk" and "not real chocolate"...

The rival product was Mambo, also in a tetra-pak. The corner shop opposite my school used to sell them by the lorryload in summer.
Lovely jubbly !
It’s funny that you said ice lolly sounded like something a child would say or was childish because to me popsicle sound like something a child would say or is childish 😂

ice lolly is just diminutive of ice lollipop and popsicle is an amalgam of (lolli)pop and icicle. Both are fine I think.

lol never in my life have I ever seen someone wince at a Fab lolly, we loved those when we were kids.
Fabs are great. She's on drugs.
one thing I note about the water based lollies, is the way they squeak when you bite into them. Love the squeak!
Pop to the shop, taking the piss both within 5 minutes...your metamorphosis to a Brit goes well. And complaining about the summer

Wall's Feast is mine, but if you can count Magnums, that definitely is the top choice
Mr Men Milk Lolly, don't argue...
Yesssss
Strawberry split ❤
Re R.Whites - check their famous ad 'secret lemonade drinker'. Not only is it funny, but the music was done by Elvis Costello's dad.

I loved original twisters the green on the outside..always Gaza e my children min milk and now my grandson ..they’re perfect for wee people
Strange weather for this time of year, June and it feels and looks more like January.
Oh, and my favourite ice lolly is Iceland's Cola Bottles.
Calippo (various flavours), Del Monte Raspberry Smoothie, Fruit Pastil-Lolly
The two main ice lolly makers (from ice cream vans) in the 1960s/70s wee Lyons Maid and Walls.
'FAB ' had a tie-in with the "Thunderbirds" puppet Tv show.and you got a picture card of the characters or vehicle in the wrapper . Rocket was called ZOOM!

Yesterday 11/6/24 was a bit chilly here in Kent.
R. Whites Lemonade has been around since 1845.
I love Twisters (The full size ones).
On the fruit based lolly category a calypso is good, Lyon’s maid orange lolly and one I think you’d like is the cider lolly.
Quite a few people have mentioned Magnums. They are of course lollies - they're on a stick - but they still fall at Alanna's first hurdle as they are ice creams.
Ms Molly is one of the budget ranges in Tesco, like Basics or Essentials in other shops. My favourite ice lolly is the Solero tropical flavour.
The offensive Rocket lollies are the no, or low sugar ones. All supermarkets have their own version (probably all made by the same manufacturer), I haven't seen an original Rocket lolly in decades.
An ice pop is a very sepcific thing in the UK. A sort of plastic tube filled with flavoured ice is an ice pop.
You used to be able to get Cider ice lollies when I was young. I know you like cider so you could look out for them. You may have to visit a shop with a big ice lolly freezer or an ice-cream van.
Great video Alanna! My favourite lolly was a Toffee Crumble. Haven't had one for years!
I'm glad it's not just me then. I've not seen a Toffee Crumble for many, many years. 😢
My fav ice lolly is a lemonade one. So refreshing
I tend toward icecream over ice, but I like orange calippos, and sainsburys do a cloudy apple lolly that's pretty good.
Alannah. The shape of the ms molly's is what we used to call a popsicle in England. I would suggest it is the brand R Whites that has been around since the late 1800s and not the ice lolly, just because freezers would not have been around back then.
My favourite ice lolly is a Strawberry Mivvy , which is an ice cream centre, covered with a strawberry ice.
There was once one called a haunted house lolly. It was white and very nice. My favourite now is a solero. Since you don't appear to like milk based lollies, I suggest you try the Asda cider flavoured lollies.
If you want to do an ice cream themed video, try choc ices, screwballs, and arctic roll.
FAB Ice lollies they take me back to my childhood in the late 1970’s early 80’s.
The FAB lollies used to be big back in my childhood.
Love them.
If you don’t like the milk, then you won’t like Milk lollies.
I love a raspberry or strawberry mivvi, it's vannila ice cream covered in raspberry/strawberry ice sorbet onna stick. (Identical to a Strawberry split.) A lot of the ice lollies nowadays are a poor reflection on lollies from the 80's. They've "new and improved" them all to taste the same and cost as little as possible to manufacture.

best ever...Lord Toffingham....long gone, but fond memories...(bring em back!)
Don't worry about not liking FAB, I don't know anyone that likes it. My favourite current ice lolly is Pineapple Coconut & Lime ice lolly which Sainsbury's and Tesco have their own brands, its very refreshing.
My favourite all time lolly would be a Pineapple Mivvi, followed closely by a Sea Jet milk lolly of any flavour.
I think we sometimes use popsicle or pop ice to refer to those long sticks of flavoured ice in plastic wrap.
Let’s go old school. A Screw Ball, there’s a bubblegum at the bottom. What more could you want out of life?
4 hours, until the bubblegum was soft enough to chew.
OMG I could actually taste the screwball when I read this. Must be at least 45 years since I had one of those.
Thats more ice cream than iced lolly, much like Funny Feet.
Never forget the Cornetto! Thanks Alanna! 🙏🙏
That's an ice cream cone, not an iced lolly.
Brunch ice lolly was my favourite when I was growing up and they still make it 50 years later - it is that good!
The original “Rocket” Ice Lolly known as Zoom made my Nestle was discontinued in the mid 1990’s.
back in early 2000s in India, Twisters used to be one of the most in demand lollies amongst children

R Whites are Britain's best known lemonade manufacturer, if you get the chance you watch their TV adverts - "I'm a secret lemonade drinker"
I don't know if they have them in the UK, I'm in AU, but my fave 'ice lollies' are either calipso or splice, splice I guess is ahybrid icecream/ice lollie as the centre is ice cream, creamy delicieous icecream.
You can have ice lolly any time of the year if it's raining, sunshine, snowing, cloudy there truly an all year round treat. The best ones are round trees fruit pastels ones.
Fabs are a staple of British cuisine
SOLERO TROPICAL ..... the perfect combination.
I buy lollies in the depths of winter.
I love milky lollies - those cheap ones from Tesco, Ms Molly's, are lovely. 7/10
Tesco rockets are nice too. The pineapple is unusual and gorgeous. 8/10
But you missed the best ones on your trip to Tesco:
Strawberry and Apple Water Ice. 10/10
As a cider drinker you'll love the Cloudy Apple. 10/10
And the Valencia Orange are sublime. 11/10
I know it's Tesco-centric and I'm sure the other supermarkets have their own great ones, but it's all Tesco near me.
yeah cos 'popsicle' sounds so mature!
Just depends on what you're used to!
I loved a Mivvi. Don't know if you still get them.
That was my favourite.
You need to get a strawberry mivvi. Tesco call them fruit splits and do multiply flavours.
Calippo are pretty solid too.
5:06 The Ice lolly made of *R Whites* Lemonade hasn't been around since 1845. Only the *R Whites Lemonade* has. The Ice lolly is a recent thing (ie) available since about 1980 ish....
Someday, you have to try a Rum & Raisin choc ice.. they have always been my favourite. But if it has to be a lolly. I'd choose an *Orange Split* .
cider or lager & lime from the van were my favourite
as a kid i loved the Cow branded ice loilie, yep all milk forgot its exact name, small cylinder type thing , anyone (this would be the 80s). To be honest milk is still at 50 the only cold drink i drink now, it outlasted fizzy drinks, beer, whiskey
Milk for the win
Hi there Alanna, you should try Walls Magnum and/or Tesco own brand Belgian Chocolate Mint Ice Lollies.
You can get a box of 6 Fab's for £2.50. They are elite value tier.
Fab fact
You had to mention the weather! Your definitely becoming more british 😁
I used to love an ice lolly that was Banana flavoured on the outside with a soft toffee centre. I think they were called Lord Snooty's for some reason.😁
I think it was called a " Lord Toffingham ".
This is a GREAT video! Perfect selection, perfect reactions 😂 loved it 👏🏻
Some of the stronger contenders for ice lolly of the year to try are (imho):
Refresher
Callipo
Then the lolly ice cream crossovers:
Strawberry Mivvi
Walls Solero
