Thirst-quenching apple cider carefully blended with orange, lemon and lime flavours and real fruit juice. A zesty mix that brightens up the classic crisp apple-ness for a fresh citrus taste.

Doesn't quite hit the mark for me, but I guess it depends on how much you like lemon infused cider. This is one of them, it is drinkable with an easy enough texture. Lots of lemon... not the worst.

Clear gold with brief fizz. Confectionary citrus zest aroma. This flows through to the flavour with a moderate dryness and not sickly sweet. It tastes processed but flavours are ok if a bit samey after a while.

500ml bottle from Tesco Express, Darlington. Pale golden colour, white foam head that dissipates to a thin layer and aroma of lemon & lime. Taste is sweet & zesty, orange, lime, sugary with citric tartness. Syrupy, light to medium bodied, high carbonation, sweet citric finish. OK.

Bottle from Tesco. Pale yellow with an obvious fizz. Light and refreshing with lemon and lime and a hint of Opal Fruit sweets (or Starburst or whatever they're called these days). It's sweetish but, unlike many flavoured ciders, not overbearingly so. lThe dirty tang of Strongbow does come through in the finish but thankfully it's fairly subdued. Overall this was significantly better than I expected - but that's based on pretty low expectations!
