Re: US equivalent to Robinson's Orange Squash
I now drink MIO. It comes in different flavors, the one I use is the tangerine. Comes in small bottles and you add a couple of shots to a pint of water. It'll take a couple of pints to get accustomed to the different taste, but it's all I drink now and is a great substitute for UK squash.
I was a dedicated Ribena drinker at home, but a) not willing to pay the price over here, b) can't get the sugar free variety.
The only other alternative I've found is that Ikea do an elderflower cordial in their food sections, think there may be another variety that is red in colour, but I do like the elderflower one, nice taste and not too sickly.

Me too, it seems a bit pricey to start with, but its fun trying all the different flavours. Although I'm not sure about the colouring, some varieties seem to travel through the body unchanged.

Theres not many expats who can buy a bottle of robinsons squash, have a pint of draught Boddingtons with a plate of decent fish and chips followed by a few games of bar billiards at the same location
