(27,247 posts)"Fizzies" (kind of like flavored Alka-Seltzer), Pillsbury fruit drinks (Choo Choo Cherry, Lefty Lemon-Lime, Rootin' Tootin' Rasberry, Jolly Olly Orange), Kool-Aid (from the Bugs Bunny packets), Jungle Juice (a type of fruit punch sold in pint cartons), Hawaiian Punch, Tang (grape and orange), Shasta and A&W root beer. And on very special occasions, I could get 100% juice. These days, just about any 100% fruit juice will do.

It's the fragrant flavor of a good Gin that makes all the difference combined with the quinine tonic.
