I reckon I could drink 50 litres of Passiona
-
In my day (during the Holocene era) drinks such as Passion Pop were called Legopener.
I have no idea why.
@Spoon etymology clearly wrt the ancient scandinavian art of peening lego. obvs.

(To be fair, I kinda get where you're coming from. Portello is the one I'm least likely to drink now. Definitely more of a "rare occasion for variety" thing. Mostly it's sars or creamy as #1 choice, though all the talk of passiona has given me a craving I may need to give in to tomorrow...)

As a kid I only really liked the flavours considered "weird" by most of my peers, so sarsaparilla, passiona, creamy soda, portello...
I still gravitate to one of those on the rare occasions I want a soft drink these days.
@imalcolm @msdropbear Passiona is the best soft drink in Australia, no question.

@luciedigitalni back in the day passiona was ok but for me the real deal was sarsaparilla. loved it. i very rarely met anyone else who also liked it. prolly made me the woman i am today.
@msdropbear @luciedigitalni Yes, I loved it too!

Oh gods…I liked passions as a kid, but haven’t tasted it for years. Sarsaparilla was something saved for those occasions when you wanted to concoct the most disgusting drink ever. Was Dr Pepper sarsaparilla?

@Susan60 @msdropbear @luciedigitalni Haven't had sarsaparilla for a while..
Discovered it here in Australia. It was a soft drink I didn't have to hide from my children, only papa drank that weird stuff.

@luciedigitalni when I was around 11, my grandfather started to take me to the Golf Club bar and buy me a Passiona every fortnight. It was one of my favourite events - to spend time talking with him and to drink an entire schooner of icy cold Passiona. It was a reward for being his caddy and pushing his bloody golf clubs around the course.

@sister_ratched @treleanor just in time for us to pay more and get less. 🤬

@HardBeingGreen @johnquiggin I'm older but also grew up in NSW, and we just had sneakers, then there were gymboots, and finally runners. I guess it depends on the style.

@sister_ratched we're off to a late picnic lunch this afternoon down by the lake somewhere or maybe Pine Island. No decisions have yet been made although there are prawns peeled and waiting patiently in the fridge while husband potters about deciding on the rest of the menu. It'll be salad, it's always salad - just depends on what he wants to gather from the garden today.
