Re: wot no orange squash!!
Can anyone Please tell us what the Canadians give their children to drink as it appears that you can't buy orange cordial. Something to do with its ingredients! We don't want to give them fizzy stuff or fruit shoots that are full of sugar when we get over there.
Thought about bringing some over but when it run's out then what?

All the dilute stuff is full of sugar and if it says sugar free it is full of Aspartame....Milk is full of antibiotics and hormones and organic milk costs a fortune here.....
My two boys have waaaay too much energy anyway so they drink filtered water and organic rice milk (which is probably contaminated with cyanide OR is it arsenic) - not at the same time though....
Good luck in your search!!!!

That's the solution - pre-made fruit cocktail diluted 75-25 to 50-50 with water tastes just like squash (and saves money, too!).
Most of the ones we seem to get are just straight juice without added sugar or chemicals, and there are plenty of varieties (i.e. blueberry/ cranberry/ raspberry/ pomegranate).
No orange, however, but you learn to cope
Having said that, we've some friends coming over this week and part of their visitation tax is a bottle of Robinson's high-juice.

Re: wot no orange squash!!
Mine used to drink orange and blackcurrant in the UK, younger one would NOT drink anything but blackcurrant
NOW, hes actually drinking chocolate milk (amazed), apple juice (amazed again), orange juice and lots of water.
I have also tried cranberry & apple from Sobeys but add a bit extra water to it as seems quite strong this went down well.
All just a case of re-adjusting

Minute Maid makes an orange punch which might be a decent orange squash option:

It's a shame that a simple question that this started with to make the move easier gets turned into a slanging match between individuals.

Re: wot no orange squash!!
My kids mostly drink fruit juice diluted with water - I buy the frozen ones and add extra water to them when I make it up - they haven't noticed so far!
We also get ribena occasionally as a treat. And milk, water, the occasional hot chocolate. And my 10 yr old has recently developed a taste for tea, so she drinks that.
I refuse to let them drink Kool-aid (ie the strange powdered stuff) because of the fact that I use it to dye wool - if it does that to wool just imagine what it would do to your insides
And besides, the one time I did let them have a taste of it I was scraping them off the ceilings for hours!
