One of the interesting things I tried on our vacation was dandelion and burdock soda. There were huge bottles of it in the soda isle at Morrison's supermarket in London, so we figured it must be a delightful, well-loved libation that we must try. After all, I've had an elderflower drink before, and it was tasty.
According to Wikipedia, "Dandelion and burdock is a traditional British soft drink, drunk in the British Isles since about 1265. Traditionally it is made from fermented dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) and burdock (Arctium lappa) roots, and is naturally fizzy."
Hmmm...I think that it is something that would be appealing to someone who enjoys Marmite. R described it as, "a cross between prune juice and cough syrup", which just about covers it.
And for the record, Cherry Diet Coke in England tastes like cherry cough syrup + DC.
