It is 20 years since alcopops were invented almost by accident by an Australian farmer and his friend that had a pub next door.
I don’t care what anyone says about blah-de-blah encouraging children to drink but when these drinks came out they suited my sweet taste buds to a tee and I loved them. Smirnoff Ice was my favourite, followed by Barcadi Breezers.
The thought of even smelling either of those today makes my stomach turn and I swear, even now as I write I feel slightly sick. A sure sign of old age.
Hurrah for alcopops!
