Cawston Press – Sparkling Drinks

Here at The Amazing Blog, we love nothing more than sipping on a can of something fizzy. However so many of them are too sweet and sickly, leaving us with what feels like a layer of fur on our teeth. Not to mention the countless artificial ingredients that we unwittingly put into our bodies. We were therefore suitably excited when Cawston Press created their range of sparkling drinks.

Cawston Press has maintained their aim to make delicious soft drinks using only quality ingredients, the finest fruit is picked at harvest and the juice used is pressed rather than concentrated. This gives the sparkling drinks the freshness of flavour that is blended to perfection with other ingredients from their kitchen garden. The variation in colours, tastes, and textures of the apple makes it the staple ingredient in all of Cawston Press’ drinks, including their new sparkling variety.

We had the chance to try the Ginger Beer and Elderflower Lemonade, there are only a few ingredients used but Cawston Press do not compromise on taste. The Ginger Beer has a crisp, almost dry taste to it with the inclusion of fiery ginger extracts; on the other hand the Elderflower Lemonade is fairly sweet, light and extremely fragrant due to the infusion of elderflower. In comparison to other sparkling soft drinks, these are fairly low in sugar. Now there will be no guilty conscious after treating ourselves to a delicious and refreshing sparkling drink.

Make sure you treat yourself to a guilt-free soft drink; get yours here for 99p per can or £3.50 for 6.

Cawston Press - Sparkling Drinks

We are no strangers to adult beverages here at The Amazing Blog, but Cawston Press keeps us happy to be teetotalers. Their new collection of sparkling soft drinks are delicious enough to keep us gleefully toeing the line. The Cloudy Apple and Rhubarb Sparkling Drinks are not from concentrate, have no preservatives, and no artificial colours or flavours.  The refreshing and sweet freshly pressed juices are made from a mixture of British Cox and Bramley apples and the rhubarb is picked in the spring to ensure its tartness. Although both flavours had us smiling and reminiscing over Mum’s packed lunches, our favourite was Cloudy Apple. It was naturally sweet enough to go head to head with our sugar cravings but the ingredients in the drink did not make us regret the decision afterwards. We especially like that they come in cans so that we can just grab the healthy apple based beverages and go!

You can find your way to Cawston Press Cloudy Apple or the Rhubarb Sparkling Canned Drinks at selected Waitrose and Ocado, costing £4.99 for a pack of 6.

Cawston Press

Having spent the last four evenings consuming copious amounts of alcohol, I'm feeling far from fresh on this blustery Monday.  Thursday evening was dinner with the girls, which turned into a night of wine swigging; Friday was a friend's wedding, Saturday a house-party which went on until sunrise, and last night an impromptu beer swilling night in front of the TV with my housemates. Thus, given my rather delicate state today, and unable to drink like I used to, the rest of the week will be spent free of all things alcoholic. Lucky for me, we ladies at The Amazing Blog recently came across Cawston Press and their fab range of drinks, which offer the perfect alternative to alcohol and come without the dreaded morning-after-the-night-before foggy head and memory loss.

With a long standing passion for all things apple-related, Cawston Press have spent over twenty-five years developing an innovative range of all-natural juices, and most recently launched their very own version of fizz - Sparkling Apple and Sparkling Apple Ginger Beer. The Sparkling Apple contains no less than 75% pressed apple juice while the Sparkling Apple Ginger Beer is a unique take on the classic which also features lemon juice and a hint of chilli, giving it a certain je ne sais qoui!

Both drinks are light and refreshing, with the perfect amount of fizz, and are the ideal companion to any kind of meal, noon or night. Unlike many soft drinks, Cawston Press contain no artificial sweeteners, preservatives or colourings and a 200ml glass of any of their juices will provide you with one of your 5-a-day. Tasty and healthy - what more could you ask for in a drink?!

So, whether you're nursing a four-day hangover, or are simply looking for a grown-up soft drink that's both delicious and good for you, head to any leading supermarket to get your hands on a bottle or buy online here.
