Yeah, U.S Fanta is just full o adatives and sweeteners. But no real thing at all.or maybe it has likely.01% oranges so that no one can sue them not having oranges. 😂😂😂😊
Oh wow!! Orangina!! What a treat. Growing up in the UK in the 80/90's we also didn't have it and we were kinda poor but my fabulous dad would drive us from the UK to France via the ferry every summer for camping & we adored Orangina! It was like one of the magical rare treats we could have occasionally.
Dont forget to shake the bottle of Orangina first before opening. It makes sure that the pulp is more in the drink and not on the buttom of the bottle...
It's carbonated, so don't shake it, just move the bottle around gently to mix the pulp. Violently shaking it removes the gas in the drink and increases the pressure. The drink could "explode" in your face when you open it.
@@janickpauwels3792 I know it is counter intuitive but yes, you do actually shake it. Shaking can be done gentle as well ;) You wouldn't shake it like it is a milkshake or a cup of dice obviously.
@@janickpauwels3792 No + skill issue the bottles (at least in europe idk about usa) are strong enough to be shaken and you can still stand on it maybe sligtly jumping on it depending on weight without it exploding it doesn't remove the gas if it never been opened before. it only increases the pressure depending how long ago it has moved. just wait for most of the bubbles to be gone and you can open it without a bubblebomb everywhere. if you're scared you can open it slower. colder temp makes it less active

Orangina is a French brand. The drink was invented by the Frenchman Léon Beton, who lived in Algeria (when Algeria was still French) because he owned an orange grove there. To create his recipe, he was inspired by a formula developed by a Spaniard, Dr. Agustin Trigo Mirallès, a pharmacist in Valencia, Spain. The brand belongs to the Orangina Suntory France group, which is itself owned by the Japanese group Suntory. Coca-Cola has already tried to buy the brand but without success
The bottles of Orangina used to look like a real orange more round shape , they change the shape as it take less space in a fridge . It was the drink of my youth in the late 60😊
In Italy you cannot put an image of an orange or use the world "orange" (or a derivation of it.... for example in Italian "orange" is called "arancia" and a derivation is "aranciata") if there isn't AT LEAST 12% of orange juice
The pulp was a technical issue with the first batches. It was not supposed to have it, but people liked it so much, it became the whole soul of the drink. The slight fault became the charme.
@@gigantor62 #1 No gringo Fanta doesn't have fluoride #2 While fluoride is technically toxic like just about everything it's highly unlikely that you'd reach a dangerous dose by drinking products that have it added. As a general rule adding fluoride is good for your health. Primarily locally in your mouth though, so you're better off having it in gum, mouthwash or toothpaste than drinking it.
In Europe, caps staying attached to plastic bottles is part of a new regulation aimed at reducing plastic waste and environmental pollution. The European Union's Single-Use Plastics Directive, implemented in 2019, requires that by 2024, plastic bottle caps remain tethered to bottles to ensure they are properly recycled with the bottle. This change helps prevent caps from being littered separately, as small caps are often lost, becoming a significant source of plastic pollution, especially in oceans and waterways. By keeping the caps attached, it makes it easier for recycling systems to capture both the bottle and the cap, reducing waste and promoting a circular economy where materials are reused rather than discarded. While it may seem like a small change, it’s part of a larger effort across Europe to minimize plastic pollution and protect the environment.
@@retropaganda8442 So you're wrong. The caps are made of a completely different plastic than the bottle - and this plastic is even worse decomposable. There are programs in the EU, especially aimed at children, where you collect caps in a fun way. In this way, children are taught a pro-ecological approach.
now my friend you're ready to try san pellegrino sodas which in my unbiased opinion are peak citrus sodas but as an italian who used to go to france very often, orangina is truly goated
If there is one thing American producers care about it's to keep their customers alive and able to continue costumering - so wouldn't count on any risks being undertaken here.
Mate it's just a drink, you're fine grow up. Americans soda taste 100x better ever since the sugar tax where every drink including orangina has artificial sweetener which has a bitter after taste and no strong syrup taste. Orangina used to taste like 10x better too before the sweetener.
Simple: Orangina is from France, it's originally from Algeria when it was still a french colony, by a french company created and owned by Leon Beton, then the whole company moved to France when Algeria got its independancy, and then started to become popular and known in Europe. But back in Algeria, Leon Beton asked a doctor to create the formula of Orangina, an orange based soda, and the doctor was spanish and lived in Valencia, Spain (augustin Trigo Miralles). Orangina was created in 1936, but was not popular in France until after World War 2, when french soldiers returned to France. When Algeria gained its independancy, the company décidés to move to France, fearing that Algeria would claim the society's assets. It was only then that Orangina's popularity reached beyound the French frontiers. In spain they never released Orangina even to this day...
only recently. My father and grandpa used to deink it when they were young, i habe been told about the famous bottle looking like 3oranges also so called triple-egged
The manufacturers knows it make them looking artificial but that were the only way they could squeeze some red dye 40 and 50 in it. And they got to keep those patients flowing to their buddy´s in the "healthcare business sector". No sold allergenic pharmaceuticals, no bonus kick back. 😂😳
That Orangina had a Polish label. /edit premature comment 😅He read it was from Poland. "Z miąższem pomarańczy" means with orange pulp. "Smak klasycznej pomarańczy" means taste of a classic orange. The european attached cap is supposed to help with recycling but I find it extremely handy when driving a car. No more caps flying away and getting stuck under the seat. Hello Mrs. Rocker, glad We finally get to see the face of the mysterious voice 😂

@@Afkhh I think with how many different ones I've seen, they still haven't pinpointed which one might work the best. Some of our milk ones in Slovenia got it spot on, the cap just pops back on when you close it.
Screaming at screen 'Shake it! Shake it!! 🤣🤣 Orangina is really popular in the UK. Lovely and refreshing! Remember please to shake it before drinking though!! 😮😂. My teeth hurt just looking at at US sodas 😫 As someone has already commented San Pellegrino should be your next test subject 🤤
When i was a kid, my family allways went on a 3 week camping trip in the summer. One year, when camping in France, we went to visit a market in a small town near the campsite. After visiting the market we stopped at a café and ordered some drinks. Kid me wanted a fanta but the café didn't have fanta, they had a different orange soda, so that's what I ended up getting. When drinks got served I ended up with an orangina. I've been hooked ever since. Nothing beats an ice cold orangina on a hot summer day. Serving tip: When you drink it you want to shake the bottle so the pulp isn't all settled on the bottom. On a sidenote, the water used can alter the taste for both soda and beer. There will allways be slight taste differences between waters from different sources. Your polish imported orangina will be slightly different from the original french one.
Glass and Can, nothing else... You Brits have to drink the Yankee Poison now, other than your piss poor beer at least. Just wait for American Fanta presented to you by a LGBTQ++xyz Member, if it not allready happened :)
In Italy we have a characteristic soda called Chinotto, which has been also adopted by Coca Cola, but you have several brands that produce it and is a sort of bitter/citric Coke, sincerely recommended. Very cool comparison videos, thank you for the great job, you're such a lovely couple! Keep it up:)
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO HE FORGOT TO SHAKE IT you are suposed to shake it so that the pulp can be equally distributed in the drink (and i think it might add a little fizz to the first sips)
I think best way to do it is to flip bottle upside down for 15-20 seconds and then flip it back and open after 5 sec and drink third or half of it. Then u’ll keep enough gas inside to have another opening of the bottle fully carbonated. Altho with Orangina, even shaking it (gently ofc not a champagne shake) doesnt pull too much gas out and even if it does, orangina is still tasty without gas regardless imo. Only juice thar comes with 12% natural juice that is sold in stores and is not “ultra premium, ultra expensive”.
The idea behind the European top is that you have to place the top back on the bottles for recycling as a lot of people where not doing this when you could take the top off where placing them separately or throwing away the tops so is to reduce plastic waist and also to stop the caps from falling through the conveyor system at the recycling centres. This now legally mandatory in the EU by law however as we in the uk are no longer in the EU and is not binding by law however the system is used here so companies don’t have to produce one top for Europe and one for the uk.
Which is the ultimate irony of Brexit, which was apparently about 'taking back control' except we get so many products from the EU and sell so many to the EU, that we basically have to follow EU rules because it would be dumb for a manufacturer to make a product specifically just for the UK, so now we just follow EU rules but have given up all say in making them.
@@tajj7 Yep, they gave up all the benefits they got from being a member and for what! The irony is funny and I'd normally laugh, but not in this case, cause it's just plain sad. So many people were manipulated into falling for that scam and now the majority will suffer for it.
@@tajj7 The bigger irony is that the referendum was intended as a consultative referendum not a binding one. Cameron was clearly so rattled by the in-fighting about it within his party, more perhaps than the actual outcome, that he resigned immediately rather than deal with the fallout.
Oragina in glas bottle is 10 of 10. Your wife did a great job (don't be afraid to look in de camera)👍 I like you present this to getter. Greetings from the Netherlands!!
Hi from France, Orangina is a typically French product, there are very famous advertisements on this product, especially those made by Alain Chabat, a French comedian, I recommend them, to see at least once in your life,they are very funny
Orangina is from France. When i was a Teenager back in the 80's i spend many holidays in France. Back then, they sold Orangina in tiny glasbottles in the shape of an Orange. 😊 Next time you have to taste german 'Fassbrause' or 'Almdudler' from Austria! Greetings from Germany.
As someone who knows and knew the original Berliner Fassbrause before all sorts of mainstream breweries brought beer-based mixed drinks onto the market, which they simply brazenly call fassbrause, I think they should try the original first, which unfortunately isn't possible because it's hardly available outside of Berlin. I only know of one store in my area (I don't come from Berlin) that sells the stuff. Well, never mind, because otherwise I don't think the other fassbrauses are bad at all; I'm just unhappy with the naming.
Orangina was originally invented by a Spanish chemistunder the name "Naranjina" in the 1930ths, later the recipe was sold to a French businessman. In the early 2000ths the brand was sold to Cadbury Schweppes and in 2009 to Japanese company Suntory. Today it is produced in different countries under license from Suntory.
Here in the UK we have fruit drinks called 'crush'. These are concentrated fruit juices that you dilute with water to the strength/taste that you like. It is bought in bottles of about a pint size, which will make many single drinks. You can use a jug or pitcher to make drinks for a group of people. You just pour the crush first then add water to taste. The most famous brand is 'Robinson's', which sells lots of it's 'Lemon Crush' & 'Lemon Barley water' at Wimbledon during the Tennis Championships. Crush comes in several fruit flavours, including orange, but Blackcurrant, a British popular taste not known much in the US, being a great favourite.
That european cap has taken all by surprise, even us european! Suddenly one day during this summer this caps came from nowhere! I thought it was something Swedish until i saw via social media that this was universal in Europe!
It only took people by surprise who where not following EU discussions, it all started with a study the EU did back in 2015 that showed that the majority of plastic waste on EU beaches consisted of bottle caps (and among them Swedish beaches where among the worst).
I had to watch one of these videos to actually read someone explaining this......for the past year I was like "why the hell do all the bottle caps in all drinks seem to be crappy for a while now??" xD
@@jeanlundi2141 blame national media from their lack of covering EU topics. It's really infuriating how little information on EU is really in the news.
I just looked this up, so Orangina was invented by Spanish pharmacist Augustin Trigo Mirallès and introduced at a fair in Marseille (France) in 1932 under the name Naranjina. There frenchman Léon Beton bought the distribution rights and changed the name to Orangina.
Coca Cola is a French invention whose formula was sold to an American industrialist... Yes, I don't know what to be proud of when you see the ravages of this drink.😢
Fun fact: Orangina, invented in France, started including pulp due to an error during the initial production before the product launch in 1936. They decided to keep it, and it became their trademark.
As a french person, I only drink Orangina as a soda. I don't even like EU Fanta, it's too chemical for me :D Just so you know they also have orangina light and orangina zero, and they taste pretty great too. I tend to like the normal one better, but that's because I'm a sugar lover.
Ah. Yes. Of course. Obviously, you'll reject everything. You're French. An elitist, picky, violent, barbaric, unshaved, xenophobic sack of "if we don't like the way our King looked at our girl that one time, we revolt". The people so lazy that even if their average age of passing has risen to 95, you won't allow your government to move retirement age up a single day. Because you like things your way and any suggestion of change is treated like an insult to your grandmother. Probably behind all the most nonsense EU regulations, like how bent a banana should be.
Great video. nice seeing your wife on camera too for her reaction. can't wait to see that happening more often in the future. I feel like you'll get many recommendations in the future to do comparisons of beverages and food and etc
@@sismofytter it's also ridiculously expensive to get in America. At least in the few cities I went to. Even the shitty food is twice the price I pay here. You pay as much for crap in the US as I pay for organic brands in expensive organic only stores 😂 I don't even want to know where you have to go and what you have to pay to get fresh organic food when you aren't living in the countryside close to a farmers market ...
Hey, great video as usual! Now you should try some Apfelschorle (german, different brands available). Then you should try Rivella (Swiss) with different flavors (classic is the best) if you can get that in your magic store 😊
German here. I know Orangina from France but it might be sold in Spain too. And OMG, it has always been my must-have whenever I visited France, even when I as a child way back then. I am glad you tried it. Looking at one of the bottles your wife held to the camera I had to laugh. It said "260 calories per serving". That wouldn't fly in Germany. Because what does "per serving" tell us? Right, it tells us nothing, it is not a correct measurement. Serving in a big glass, in a tiny glass, in a giant glass, in what, eh? In Germany it would for example be "so many calories in 0.3 liters". THAT is a statement. "per serving" isn't. :) Edit: The "cap-thing" is a relatively new European regulation. It is to hinder the cap to be divided from the bottle, so when the stuff goes to the recycling, both plastics are still in "one piece" instead of losing the cap on a hike or wherever, which would be non-compostable garbage in our nature. And last not least a recommendation: I don't know what the shops where you find the European stuff do import. But if you should ever stumble about a bottle named "Almdudler", please try it. It is from Austria, and it is a herbal soda. And I bet it would be a very unique experience for you. (Furthermore I guess you'd like it.)
Huh? I bought an Orangina just last week in Germany - Always had it in the Basque area, so I suppose I have to say I first encountered in Spain, though the people I've had dealings with there would claim that it's available in occupied Basque😂. Best regards Raoul G. Kunz
in the US a serving size is a specific measurement the same size for all drinks, the same weight for all candy, the same wieght for all meats, etc. etc. I do think the european way is much more clear and better, but it is not as you discribe
This video reminds me when I was living in England as a student, renting a house with two English dudes. One of them fell in love with the simple Teisseire syrups I was bringing from France (syrups to complete with water). He had never tasted a strawberry syrup that tastes as much as strawberry before (syrups you find in England taste vert chemical). Each time I went back to France for holidays, I brought him a new strawberry syrup bottle :) weird to discover that what we think of as normal is not normal for others
I was thinking the same. 😂 Watching the first video and immediately thought “Orangina” and then saw the comment section flowing over with this. This really blew up
Orangina is from France, BUT Spanish did invent Naranjina before. For Orangina, the special adding to Naranjina is to add real pulp, so you have to shake the bottle berfore opening the bottle.
As a visitor to the US some 25 year ago I was amazed that one brand (I dont remeber which one) of orange soda was marketed by "Pure Artificial" on the label, it really didn't inspire a purchase....
With our bottles with the cap attached one trick i learned is open them like you have and twist the cap once or twice. This stretches the plastic a little letting the cap hang a little more freely and out of the way.
Orangina is an original product from France. As far as I know, there is no better lemonade than this one. I come from Germany. We always get it in the supermarket. Before drinking, turn the drink upside down so that the best of the orange settles at the bottom, turn it again and enjoy. I think they even come in glass bottles and it's even better. I wish everyone who reads this, Have a Nice Day
@@MattyEngland I don’t think they did that for the german product. The ingredients list doesn‘t state any sweeteners here. But sad to hear that they did it in your country.
Yeah, Orangina is possible to buy in most of supermarkets here in EU, i can confirm that as a citizen of Czech Republic who is buying Orangina time to time in dutch chain of supermarkets called Albert and it cost around 50 Czech Crowns/2 € for 1.5L.🙂
Wild idea: Have you ever tried mixing Orange Juice with Sparkling Water? Use 25-30% orange juice (best with no sugar added), the rest filled up with cold, really sparkling water. We Germans call this „Orangenschorle“ and it’s really really refreshing on a hot summer day. Even better is an „Apfelschorle“, a Schorle made with apple juice and sparkling water. It‘s especially great with cloudy apple juice. Both Schorles are very popular drinks in Germany. But you can use any juice for a Schorle. Apple and Orange are most popular, but cranberry, rhubarb and cherry are also found on most menus in restaurants. Enjoy! Also, orange juice in Germany has no added sugar, just juice.
Fun Fact: all three american soda had 0 g of proteins and about 60-80 g of sugar. Orangina had 0,1 g of protein (Bialko = Protein) and just 9 g of sugar.
In Europe the nutrition is always based on a sample of 100ml or 100g. For the Orangina that is 9g/100ml, so in total it is still a lot with 45g of sugar for the 500ml bottle.
@@DonnieX6 Correct. Sunkist, for example, has 11.8g of sugar per 100mL, and 48.4g of sugar in a 375mL can. OP definitely misunderstood their google search.
@@TheSorcerer1 The Orange Soda from the US says "71g sugar per serving" with the serving size being one bottle. So while 45g is still a lot for the Orangina, the American one is a bit more than 150% of that.
As kids we had to mix Orangina with water because we weren‘t sed to the high sugar content and the strong carbonation. So we got the one Orangina bottle if we went to restaurants in France, and asked for a glad to mix it with the free tap water. I still prefer to drink Orangina that way, reduces the sugar 2/3rds
Loved Daniela popping into the video :) If you have it in that EU store buy the "Kubuś 100%" juice. Even tho its for babies and children everyone drinks it over here in Poland even as adults. Its excellent. Its made out of ~50% concentrated juice + the rest is mousse and it contains no additional sugar. My favorite flavor is the apple-carrot-banana combo (tbf almost of them have apple and carrot as base) it will have a banana on the etiquette. Life hack. Kubuś also has pure mousse sucking suchets for babies and I love to buy those when I have to travel a lot by car.
Orangina is a drink created and produced in France, it is notably placed second in soda sales in France behind Coca-Cola. I sometimes mix Orangina and Coca-Cola.
Is he going to shake it? He's got to shake it! Noooo! He didn't shake it! I remember drinking Orangina for the first time when visiting France (from the UK) when I was a child- and it was stunning! You can get it sometimes in the UK now- but back then it was something new. Another difference you didn't address is that the US sodas you showed had 260/270 calories in them- and the bottle of Orangina had 52.
In most European countries if not all you have to pay a few cents (depending on the country) which you will get back once you bring back the bottle to a store. But the cap is ofcourse also made out of plastic so it needs to be recycled just like the bottle itself so it comes attached so the cap isn't thrown away as often.
Definitely not all, and probably not most. Scandinavia, Germany and the Netherlands are the only places that spring to mind. I know bottle return systems used to exist in the UK for glass bottles for economic reasons on a company-by-company basis, as it would be cheaper for them to clean and reuse the glass bottles than produce new ones. Tbh, I'd probably question the usefulness of a return refund of a few cents over simply promoting recycling as a whole - if anything from my experience in the Netherlands, people are more likely just to leave plastic bottles hanging around wherever under the assumption that a homeless person would take it away.
@@jaredbowhay-pringle1460 there are more: on top of Scandinavia (including Denmark), Netherlands and Germany, refund on the plastic and (partially) glass bottles is also used in Baltic countries, Poland, Slovakia, Iceland, Austria and Croatia, and from 2025 or 2026 Slovenia.... Which is half of the EU states. Currently the lowest refund is paid in Croatia and the highest in Finland.
I hate that damned cap, it just sticks in your lip uncomfortably. Who separates the lid from the bottle anyway? I can't remember the last time I lost a bottle top, is there an army of idiots out there that constantly loses them?
Hope this channel helps you and your family with being able to maybe travel to Europe and experience some of the things you've been watching for years 👌 Having watched your channel for over 2 years I can say that you definitely deserve the success coming your way💪
If you ever have the chance you should try the swiss drink "Rivella". It is produced from milk whey, and therefore includes ingredients such as lactose, lactic acid and minerals. Very refreshing actually, it's like nothing you ever tasted before.
I live in the UK but used to make regular trips to Switzerland with work. I would alway drink Rivella while I was the (up to a week at a time) and loved the product. It was introduced to the UK but disappeared relatively quickly. I don't understand why but must have been not to the liking of most Brits.
It is indeed quite weird, so much so that it was marketed in the Netherlands as being "een beetje vreemd maar wel lekker". YT doesn't seem to offer to translate that, so "a bit odd but still delicious".
@@markjlewis yeah, it's really not for everyone i guess. When i had some friends from the US over for a visit they were put off by the ingredients but loved it after they tried it. Some of them at least
Most of people doesn't know is that after twisting euro cup open you should flip the cap on the side and pull down, then small section of plastic will break and the cap will hang on a longer tether.
Not all brands, it's entirely up to the individual producer, the only rule is that it has to be [harder to remove]. Plenty of brands are just the same as the American cap but just without the breakaway slit so it just sits there annoyingly
*some. Every producer of the bottles has different mechanism. For example Coca Cola bottle cap is supposed to be flipper over to the other side, it's actually drawn on it :D
In the 1990s the tv commercial used to say "shake the bottle wake the drink" The pulp at the bottom would then be mixed from being settled, tastes even better if you do that first. But a gentle shake no need to over shake it as its carbonated. Yes it's the best orange drink I have had.
Orangina was created in 1936 by Léon Beton. Owner of an orange grove in the Mitidja plain, located in Algeria. Therefore French since Algeria was a French department.
It used to be good (I think it was sterilised through pasteurization, so they didn't need artificial preservatives), but lately I can only find it with artificial sweeteners (sucralose) and preservatives (glycerol). Maybe you can still get the original one in some parts of Portugal, but a friend of mine who lives there tells me it's been like that for a few years.
You should try Sanpellegrino sodas. Very similar to Orangina but comes in more flavors. If you want the "cleanest" soda, you should try to get a hold of Loka Crush drinks from Sweden. Just mineral water and fruit juices.
First time I had Orangina was on a school trip to France in the early 80's. I loved it. All the schoolkids on the trip did. But you couldn't find it back in the UK at that time. Thankfully that has changed now. Still one of my favourite soft drinks all these years later.
You should try the Norwegian soda "Solo." The orange soda was launched in 1934 after Torleif Gulliksrud brought the recipe for the drink "Naranjina Solo" ("orange alone") from Spain to the director of Tønsberg Bryggeri, a brewery in Tønsberg that produced beer, soda, juice, and preserves from 1856 to 1976. Ingredients: Water, sugar, 8% orange juice from concentrate, carbon dioxide, acid (citric acid), natural orange flavor, preservative (sodium benzoate), antioxidant (ascorbic acid), stabilizer (guar gum), color (beta-carotene, E160e).
You need to pull the cap up. Then you can shift the cap to the other side so it doesn't get in your way and poke you in the cheek. The little ring that holds it on is split in 2, so when you pull it up it creates a hinge that lets you move the cap over the top.
It doesn't work like that with a lot of brands. With some you screw it of then twist the cap and one side will snap off and you can hold the cap upside down against the bottle and it's out of the way. I don't know which one orangina has I haven't bought it since they introduced those stupid caps
This particular bottle of orangina is from Poland. It says "z miąższem pomarańczy (with orange pulp), smak klasycznej pomarańczy (taste of classic orange)"
For the bottle tops, just twist it until one of the attaching strands breaks. That makes the top hang off the side more, keeping it out of the way entirely, but still attached for recycling.
If you pause to take a look at the the first American bottle (Crush), it states that one bottle contains 142% (!) of your recommended daily value of sugar?! That almost sounds like a joke, how can this be sold legally?
I'm from Jersey and we have a massive Madeiran diaspora here. Can find Sumol everywhere, even if it's tucked away a bit. It's decent. I like the pineapple one.
Sumol Orange is the original one, and still the best... it also has pulp inside, but its green colored not yellow... but don't let that fool you... Sumol Passion Fruit is also really good
Hello from Italy! The European community has established that plastic bottle caps must remain attached for environmental reasons. Almost always the bottle is thrown into the separate waste collection but the caps end up in the non-recoverable or worse still in the environment. Last July I was traveling around the USA and I don't remember if I had a Mountain Dew in Baltimore or Washington DC... I'm still digesting it now
Of course you do not grow oranges in Poland, but indeed the orange juice concentrate is made in a country where they are grown, then shipped all over Europe in tanks, and in a local production company the water and other ingredients are added and the product is bottled. (because shipping bottles would cost a lot more) Apparently the Polish version, which is likely cheaper than e.g. Spanish or French product, is then exported to the USA. Even when it would not be bottled in Poland, there still would be versions specially bottled for Poland (with Polish text).
If you like sparkling water, then try a schorle. 60% juice and 40% sparkling water. The most popular version in Germany is apple schorle. But you can use any type of juices you prefer.
You can vary the juice to water ratio as you like, 60/40 is only the most common ratio for factory-mixed apple schorle drinks sold in Germany. As for me, I prefer a 30/70 ratio even with apple schorle, and for orange schorle I may go even lower than that. My favourite is schorle made from exotic multi-fruit juice blends.
There is not much to be find to be honest. Just take some Apfelsaft (applejuice) and some sparkling water, mix it to your liking and you've got some perfect Apfelschorle. Works with orange juice as well. At least in my opinion. What I like to know if he would like "Kiba" which is Kirsch-Bananen-Saft (cherry-banana-juice).
Yeh when I saw the last video I immediately thought you should try Orangina because that is truly proper 'soda drink' produced from oranges and without a load of crap in it.
Idk if you can get it in the US but my favorite orange soda is San Pellegrino Orangiata (I hope I spelled it right). Literally so good! They also have lemon flavor that’s also amazing
Hello from France. You should check out the french Orangina ads from the 90s too. They're fun. Especially the ones for “Orangina rouge à l'orange sanguine”, “mais pourquoi est-il aussi méchant? Parce que Ahahahah!” :D
As a kid, we always knew we were in France because we could drink Orangina. It became available here later, but there's something about drinking it at a pavement cafe. France was so far ahead of the UK in quality of food, still is, but the gap has closed a bit. These days, I just add a little sparkling mineral water to fresh orange juice with bits. Way cheaper and tastes just as good.
Orangina legendary slogan in french says " il faut secouer orangina, sinon la pulpe elle reste en bas" " you must shake orangina, if not the pulp stays in the bottom"
@@lithitbzh parce queeeeee !!! ( becauseee !!!!! )) try tio watch the ads on youtube , type '' pub orangina rouge 1996 ''' , it's will make you laught
About the fruit sediment in the bottle of Eurorangina was the center of the ad campaign for DECADES. Especially in France with totally crazy and funny commercials around the fact that the bottle had to be shaken first and that is also a slang for "crazy".
We do have chemicals in some of our drinks. In our fanta there are like 7 e numbers. Then again it is considered one of the worst orange sodas, the discount soda I can get where I live only have 2 e numbers. E numbers doesn't mean it's necessarily artificial and some you actually need like E300 (vitamine C).
Not sure if these were already mentioned, but with 3k they probably were 😅 1. The Fanta in my country (the Netherlands) is probably the same as you tried in the first video (as the "Europe Fanta"). It's quite yellow. But even within Europe there are differences, because when I went to Spain or Greece and ordered Fanta there, it was more orange colored (it's called Fanta Orange, but ours might be as well, I don't know), and tasted sooo good ❤. It's more sweet, and to me, that one tasted more like oranges. It might be a bit less carbonated as well. And it always comes in glass bottles, which is great. 2. I think it's natural to grow accustomed to the things you grow up with / are surrounded with, so I was actually a bit surprised that you could (still) taste that the US drinks were artificial / chemical. 3. I'm not sure if it's real pulp on the bottom, BUT (as all Fanta lovers will tell you), it IS important to get that pulp mixed back in. Now, violently shaking it will certainly do the trick but will also make it burst out when opened, right? So the way to go is to gently hold it upside-down a few times. Seriously, you'll taste the difference.
Dont shake it, just turn around for 5 seconds thats it, the Pulp is gonna distribut itself without carbonation loss. And the annoying cap, twist it downwards like a car key, until one of 2 plastic strings breaks, then you can pull it far more away from the bottle
Hi, thx a lot for that Video. I am from germany and orangina is my favorite for decades. Two hints .. first you have to shake it before you open it .. and second try it on the rocks.. 0.5 l glas full of ice and then orangina above .. and let it stand for some minutes ...

Dont forget to shake the bottle of Orangina first before opening. It makes sure that the pulp is more in the drink and not on the buttom of the bottle...
It's carbonated, so don't shake it, just move the bottle around gently to mix the pulp. Violently shaking it removes the gas in the drink and increases the pressure. The drink could "explode" in your face when you open it.
@@janickpauwels3792Because of the shape of the bottle it doesn't fizz all over the place.
@@janickpauwels3792 I know it is counter intuitive but yes, you do actually shake it. Shaking can be done gentle as well ;) You wouldn't shake it like it is a milkshake or a cup of dice obviously.
The German ones say "with Pulp!" upside down under the "Orangina" logo so by the time you're reading it you've already dislodged most of it.
@@janickpauwels3792 No + skill issue
the bottles (at least in europe idk about usa) are strong enough to be shaken and you can still stand on it maybe sligtly jumping on it depending on weight without it exploding
it doesn't remove the gas if it never been opened before. it only increases the pressure depending how long ago it has moved. just wait for most of the bubbles to be gone and you can open it without a bubblebomb everywhere. if you're scared you can open it slower. colder temp makes it less active

Orangina is a French brand. The drink was invented by the Frenchman Léon Beton, who lived in Algeria (when Algeria was still French) because he owned an orange grove there. To create his recipe, he was inspired by a formula developed by a Spaniard, Dr. Agustin Trigo Mirallès, a pharmacist in Valencia, Spain. The brand belongs to the Orangina Suntory France group, which is itself owned by the Japanese group Suntory. Coca-Cola has already tried to buy the brand but without success
Yes, inspired is the good word. The Spanish version, called TriNa now, didn't have fizz, whereas Orangina is made with carbonated water
That's why you can buy Orangina in Japan's supermarkets!
The bottles of Orangina used to look like a real orange more round shape , they change the shape as it take less space in a fridge . It was the drink of my youth in the late 60😊
It was a French brand. Technically it's now a Japanese one, since it's been bought 15 years ago.
Nice french soda.
In Italy you cannot put an image of an orange or use the world "orange" (or a derivation of it.... for example in Italian "orange" is called "arancia" and a derivation is "aranciata") if there isn't AT LEAST 12% of orange juice

The pulp was a technical issue with the first batches. It was not supposed to have it, but people liked it so much, it became the whole soul of the drink.

In Europe, caps staying attached to plastic bottles is part of a new regulation aimed at reducing plastic waste and environmental pollution. The European Union's Single-Use Plastics Directive, implemented in 2019, requires that by 2024, plastic bottle caps remain tethered to bottles to ensure they are properly recycled with the bottle. This change helps prevent caps from being littered separately, as small caps are often lost, becoming a significant source of plastic pollution, especially in oceans and waterways.
By keeping the caps attached, it makes it easier for recycling systems to capture both the bottle and the cap, reducing waste and promoting a circular economy where materials are reused rather than discarded. While it may seem like a small change, it’s part of a larger effort across Europe to minimize plastic pollution and protect the environment.
I'm pretty sure it makes zero difference to the environment, except for the nudging effect on the consumer brain.
@@retropaganda8442 It's not exactly like that. A serious study calculated that about 10% of litter on Italian beaches is made up of bottle caps.
@@retropaganda8442 This makes a difference to animals at sea: many plastic caps are found in the stomachs of dead animals...
@@retropaganda8442 So you're wrong. The caps are made of a completely different plastic than the bottle - and this plastic is even worse decomposable. There are programs in the EU, especially aimed at children, where you collect caps in a fun way. In this way, children are taught a pro-ecological approach.

Americans soda taste 100x better ever since the sugar tax where every drink including orangina has artificial sweetener which has a bitter after taste and no strong syrup taste. Orangina used to taste like 10x better too before the sweetener.
Simple: Orangina is from France, it's originally from Algeria when it was still a french colony, by a french company created and owned by Leon Beton, then the whole company moved to France when Algeria got its independancy, and then started to become popular and known in Europe. But back in Algeria, Leon Beton asked a doctor to create the formula of Orangina, an orange based soda, and the doctor was spanish and lived in Valencia, Spain (augustin Trigo Miralles). Orangina was created in 1936, but was not popular in France until after World War 2, when french soldiers returned to France. When Algeria gained its independancy, the company décidés to move to France, fearing that Algeria would claim the society's assets. It was only then that Orangina's popularity reached beyound the French frontiers. In spain they never released Orangina even to this day...

@@AlexphoenixWingI came here to say exactly the same 👍
When i was a kid, my family allways went on a 3 week camping trip in the summer.
One year, when camping in France, we went to visit a market in a small town near the campsite. After visiting the market we stopped at a café and ordered some drinks. Kid me wanted a fanta but the café didn't have fanta, they had a different orange soda, so that's what I ended up getting.
When drinks got served I ended up with an orangina. I've been hooked ever since. Nothing beats an ice cold orangina on a hot summer day.
Serving tip: When you drink it you want to shake the bottle so the pulp isn't all settled on the bottom.
On a sidenote, the water used can alter the taste for both soda and beer. There will allways be slight taste differences between waters from different sources. Your polish imported orangina will be slightly different from the original french one.
Every British kid who went on French holidays has great memories of Orangina. Glass bottle makes it even better.

you are suposed to shake it so that the pulp can be equally distributed in the drink (and i think it might add a little fizz to the first sips)
pulp shouldn't be in there in the first place.
@@PLF... grow up
I think best way to do it is to flip bottle upside down for 15-20 seconds and then flip it back and open after 5 sec and drink third or half of it. Then u’ll keep enough gas inside to have another opening of the bottle fully carbonated. Altho with Orangina, even shaking it (gently ofc not a champagne shake) doesnt pull too much gas out and even if it does, orangina is still tasty without gas regardless imo. Only juice thar comes with 12% natural juice that is sold in stores and is not “ultra premium, ultra expensive”.
@@PLF...You shouldn't talk nonsensical BS in the first place
Not really shake it....but you turn orangina once or twice upside down slow and thats it.
The idea behind the European top is that you have to place the top back on the bottles for recycling as a lot of people where not doing this when you could take the top off where placing them separately or throwing away the tops so is to reduce plastic waist and also to stop the caps from falling through the conveyor system at the recycling centres. This now legally mandatory in the EU by law however as we in the uk are no longer in the EU and is not binding by law however the system is used here so companies don’t have to produce one top for Europe and one for the uk.
Which is the ultimate irony of Brexit, which was apparently about 'taking back control' except we get so many products from the EU and sell so many to the EU, that we basically have to follow EU rules because it would be dumb for a manufacturer to make a product specifically just for the UK, so now we just follow EU rules but have given up all say in making them.

Here in the UK we have fruit drinks called 'crush'. These are concentrated fruit juices that you dilute with water to the strength/taste that you like. It is bought in bottles of about a pint size, which will make many single drinks. You can use a jug or pitcher to make drinks for a group of people. You just pour the crush first then add water to taste. The most famous brand is 'Robinson's', which sells lots of it's 'Lemon Crush' & 'Lemon Barley water' at Wimbledon during the Tennis Championships. Crush comes in several fruit flavours, including orange, but Blackcurrant, a British popular taste not known much in the US, being a great favourite.

German here. I know Orangina from France but it might be sold in Spain too. And OMG, it has always been my must-have whenever I visited France, even when I as a child way back then. I am glad you tried it.
Looking at one of the bottles your wife held to the camera I had to laugh. It said "260 calories per serving". That wouldn't fly in Germany. Because what does "per serving" tell us? Right, it tells us nothing, it is not a correct measurement. Serving in a big glass, in a tiny glass, in a giant glass, in what, eh? In Germany it would for example be "so many calories in 0.3 liters". THAT is a statement. "per serving" isn't. :)
Edit: The "cap-thing" is a relatively new European regulation. It is to hinder the cap to be divided from the bottle, so when the stuff goes to the recycling, both plastics are still in "one piece" instead of losing the cap on a hike or wherever, which would be non-compostable garbage in our nature.
And last not least a recommendation: I don't know what the shops where you find the European stuff do import. But if you should ever stumble about a bottle named "Almdudler", please try it. It is from Austria, and it is a herbal soda. And I bet it would be a very unique experience for you. (Furthermore I guess you'd like it.)
Huh?
I bought an Orangina just last week in Germany - Always had it in the Basque area, so I suppose I have to say I first encountered in Spain, though the people I've had dealings with there would claim that it's available in occupied Basque😂.

yeah I would say it's both spanish and french. without Spain the drink wouldn't exist , but without france too
As a visitor to the US some 25 year ago I was amazed that one brand (I dont remeber which one) of orange soda was marketed by "Pure Artificial" on the label, it really didn't inspire a purchase....
Orangina Rouge also worth a try as well as Fritz-Limo Orange
Fritz-Limo Rhubarb is my favourite
With our bottles with the cap attached one trick i learned is open them like you have and twist the cap once or twice.
This stretches the plastic a little letting the cap hang a little more freely and out of the way.
Orangina is an original product from France. As far as I know, there is no better lemonade than this one. I come from Germany. We always get it in the supermarket. Before drinking, turn the drink upside down so that the best of the orange settles at the bottom, turn it again and enjoy. I think they even come in glass bottles and it's even better. I wish everyone who reads this, Have a Nice Day
I don't always get it in Germany, at least where I live, but I prefer San Pellegrinos sodas anyway but even more some non alcoholic Radlers.
club orange was brilliant before they gimped it with sweeteners
orangina was created by a Spanish chemist Agustín Trigo in Algeria. The concept & recipe was later bought by a Frenchman Léon Beton.
lmao
Lorina is goated
San Pellegrino lemonade is also worth a try. It‘s one of the best you can buy in my opinion.
It used to be before they replaced the sugar with cancer causing artificial sweeteners.
@@MattyEngland I don’t think they did that for the german product. The ingredients list doesn‘t state any sweeteners here. But sad to hear that they did it in your country.
Oringina and San pellegrino can't be put up together. It's completely different
@MattyEngland pellegrino don't do that, it's only in light products, you can't find pellegrino light in europe at all, substant is aspartam.
that's my fav drink of all time
it feels like drinking straight electrircity and i fking love it
Yeah, Orangina is possible to buy in most of supermarkets here in EU, i can confirm that as a citizen of Czech Republic who is buying Orangina time to time in dutch chain of supermarkets called Albert and it cost around 50 Czech Crowns/2 € for 1.5L.🙂
albert heijn to be precise
@@arnomeesters1 nope. In Czech Republic they're called Albert. But they do belong to Albert Heijn.
Wow there's AHs in the Czech Republic???
I can see why they are called "Albert". "Heijn" is unpronounceable in any other language. In English it is just "Hine".
@@joebloggs2473 Acrualy for Czechs "Heijn" wouldn´t be a big problem. For British or Americans i believe it could be a bit more difficult.😄
Wild idea: Have you ever tried mixing Orange Juice with Sparkling Water?
Use 25-30% orange juice (best with no sugar added), the rest filled up with cold, really sparkling water.
We Germans call this „Orangenschorle“ and it’s really really refreshing on a hot summer day.
Even better is an „Apfelschorle“, a Schorle made with apple juice and sparkling water. It‘s especially great with cloudy apple juice.
Both Schorles are very popular drinks in Germany. But you can use any juice for a Schorle. Apple and Orange are most popular, but cranberry, rhubarb and cherry are also found on most menus in restaurants.
Enjoy!
Also, orange juice in Germany has no added sugar, just juice.
Fun Fact: all three american soda had 0 g of proteins and about 60-80 g of sugar. Orangina had 0,1 g of protein (Bialko = Protein) and just 9 g of sugar.
In Europe the nutrition is always based on a sample of 100ml or 100g. For the Orangina that is 9g/100ml, so in total it is still a lot with 45g of sugar for the 500ml bottle.
@@DonnieX6 Correct. Sunkist, for example, has 11.8g of sugar per 100mL, and 48.4g of sugar in a 375mL can. OP definitely misunderstood their google search.
@@TheSorcerer1 The Orange Soda from the US says "71g sugar per serving" with the serving size being one bottle. So while 45g is still a lot for the Orangina, the American one is a bit more than 150% of that.
@@DonnieX6no one drinks half a liter of soda here. The bottls are 0,33liter
As kids we had to mix Orangina with water because we weren‘t sed to the high sugar content and the strong carbonation.
So we got the one Orangina bottle if we went to restaurants in France, and asked for a glad to mix it with the free tap water.
I still prefer to drink Orangina that way, reduces the sugar 2/3rds
Aww thats so nice you listened to the comments, to try out Orangina, they also have a blood orange Orangina which also is very good!
Loved Daniela popping into the video :)
If you have it in that EU store buy the "Kubuś 100%" juice. Even tho its for babies and children everyone drinks it over here in Poland even as adults. Its excellent. Its made out of ~50% concentrated juice + the rest is mousse and it contains no additional sugar. My favorite flavor is the apple-carrot-banana combo (tbf almost of them have apple and carrot as base) it will have a banana on the etiquette.
Life hack. Kubuś also has pure mousse sucking suchets for babies and I love to buy those when I have to travel a lot by car.
We have it here in the UK too, Asda sells it in the polish section.
Orangina is a drink created and produced in France, it is notably placed second in soda sales in France behind Coca-Cola. I sometimes mix Orangina and Coca-Cola.
Is he going to shake it? He's got to shake it!
Noooo! He didn't shake it!
I remember drinking Orangina for the first time when visiting France (from the UK) when I was a child- and it was stunning! You can get it sometimes in the UK now- but back then it was something new.
Another difference you didn't address is that the US sodas you showed had 260/270 calories in them- and the bottle of Orangina had 52.
San pelligrino is worth a try and cidona is a carbonated apple drink also worth a try
Im glad you did this followup video. Very cool
I love the back and forth between you and your wife! Both your reactions make this amazing :)❤
Yeah, they are a really nice Euro-commie couple 😁
Now I want to have a presentation and Q&A with this cool gang. ❤
In most European countries if not all you have to pay a few cents (depending on the country) which you will get back once you bring back the bottle to a store. But the cap is ofcourse also made out of plastic so it needs to be recycled just like the bottle itself so it comes attached so the cap isn't thrown away as often.
And as a bonus, you never lose the blasted cap while you're drinking.
Definitely not all, and probably not most. Scandinavia, Germany and the Netherlands are the only places that spring to mind. I know bottle return systems used to exist in the UK for glass bottles for economic reasons on a company-by-company basis, as it would be cheaper for them to clean and reuse the glass bottles than produce new ones. Tbh, I'd probably question the usefulness of a return refund of a few cents over simply promoting recycling as a whole - if anything from my experience in the Netherlands, people are more likely just to leave plastic bottles hanging around wherever under the assumption that a homeless person would take it away.
@@jaredbowhay-pringle1460 there are more: on top of Scandinavia (including Denmark), Netherlands and Germany, refund on the plastic and (partially) glass bottles is also used in Baltic countries, Poland, Slovakia, Iceland, Austria and Croatia, and from 2025 or 2026 Slovenia.... Which is half of the EU states. Currently the lowest refund is paid in Croatia and the highest in Finland.
@MalaPilusa
Also there is Greece
I hate that damned cap, it just sticks in your lip uncomfortably.
Who separates the lid from the bottle anyway? I can't remember the last time I lost a bottle top, is there an army of idiots out there that constantly loses them?
Hope this channel helps you and your family with being able to maybe travel to Europe and experience some of the things you've been watching for years 👌

If you ever have the chance you should try the swiss drink "Rivella". It is produced from milk whey, and therefore includes ingredients such as lactose, lactic acid and minerals. Very refreshing actually, it's like nothing you ever tasted before.
I live in the UK but used to make regular trips to Switzerland with work. I would alway drink Rivella while I was the (up to a week at a time) and loved the product. It was introduced to the UK but disappeared relatively quickly. I don't understand why but must have been not to the liking of most Brits.
It is indeed quite weird, so much so that it was marketed in the Netherlands as being "een beetje vreemd maar wel lekker".
YT doesn't seem to offer to translate that, so "a bit odd but still delicious".
@@thescrewfly that describes it pretty good😅
@@markjlewis yeah, it's really not for everyone i guess. When i had some friends from the US over for a visit they were put off by the ingredients but loved it after they tried it. Some of them at least
Orangina was invented by a Spanish chemist, and produced First by french people front Algeria, and sold for a long Time by Pernaud Ricard
You should try appletiser, it's carbonated apple juice and is excellent with vodka.
I love appletiser
Most of people doesn't know is that after twisting euro cup open you should flip the cap on the side and pull down, then small section of plastic will break and the cap will hang on a longer tether.
Not all brands, it's entirely up to the individual producer, the only rule is that it has to be [harder to remove]. Plenty of brands are just the same as the American cap but just without the breakaway slit so it just sits there annoyingly
*some. Every producer of the bottles has different mechanism. For example Coca Cola bottle cap is supposed to be flipper over to the other side, it's actually drawn on it :D
In the 1990s the tv commercial used to say "shake the bottle wake the drink" The pulp at the bottom would then be mixed from being settled, tastes even better if you do that first. But a gentle shake no need to over shake it as its carbonated. Yes it's the best orange drink I have had.
Orangina was created in 1936 by Léon Beton. Owner of an orange grove in the Mitidja plain, located in Algeria. Therefore French since Algeria was a French department.
I don't usually drink juice, but people that do tell me that in Portugal they have their own good orange beberage: Sumol.
Yes Sumol is pretty good, and you can also find pulp in it.
It's okay, pretty standard imo. Then again, most lemonade is pretty basic flavoured
Yep
Yes, Sumol is better than orangina IMO, Compal is even better butt not the same kind of drink.
It used to be good (I think it was sterilised through pasteurization, so they didn't need artificial preservatives), but lately I can only find it with artificial sweeteners (sucralose) and preservatives (glycerol). Maybe you can still get the original one in some parts of Portugal, but a friend of mine who lives there tells me it's been like that for a few years.
You should try Sanpellegrino sodas. Very similar to Orangina but comes in more flavors.
If you want the "cleanest" soda, you should try to get a hold of Loka Crush drinks from
Sweden. Just mineral water and fruit juices.
First time I had Orangina was on a school trip to France in the early 80's. I loved it. All the schoolkids on the trip did. But you couldn't find it back in the UK at that time. Thankfully that has changed now. Still one of my favourite soft drinks all these years later.
u can see on youtube type this '' pub orangina rouge 1996 ' '' it's ads from red version of orangina , it's so funny ads
You should try Chin8 (Chinò Neri Chinotto Chin8)
It's an italian soda based on another citrus fruit, the myrtle-leaved orange
You should try the Norwegian soda "Solo."
The orange soda was launched in 1934 after Torleif Gulliksrud brought the recipe for the drink "Naranjina Solo" ("orange alone") from Spain to the director of Tønsberg Bryggeri, a brewery in Tønsberg that produced beer, soda, juice, and preserves from 1856 to 1976.
Ingredients:
Water, sugar, 8% orange juice from concentrate, carbon dioxide, acid (citric acid), natural orange flavor, preservative (sodium benzoate), antioxidant (ascorbic acid), stabilizer (guar gum), color (beta-carotene, E160e).
Solo is pretty good!
You need to pull the cap up. Then you can shift the cap to the other side so it doesn't get in your way and poke you in the cheek.
The little ring that holds it on is split in 2, so when you pull it up it creates a hinge that lets you move the cap over the top.
It doesn't work like that with a lot of brands. With some you screw it of then twist the cap and one side will snap off and you can hold the cap upside down against the bottle and it's out of the way. I don't know which one orangina has I haven't bought it since they introduced those stupid caps
wow
just remove the lid, it is legal to remove it
This particular bottle of orangina is from Poland. It says "z miąższem pomarańczy (with orange pulp), smak klasycznej pomarańczy (taste of classic orange)"
For the bottle tops, just twist it until one of the attaching strands breaks. That makes the top hang off the side more, keeping it out of the way entirely, but still attached for recycling.
If you pause to take a look at the the first American bottle (Crush), it states that one bottle contains 142% (!) of your recommended daily value of sugar?! That almost sounds like a joke, how can this be sold legally?
Because insulin is big business in the United States. More sugar means more diabetics: Big Pharma lobbying at its best.
In Portugal we have a brand called "Sumol" it has sugar but I like the orange one more than Fanta for sure.
Yep, I agree, Sumol is better than Fanta.
I'm from Jersey and we have a massive Madeiran diaspora here. Can find Sumol everywhere, even if it's tucked away a bit. It's decent. I like the pineapple one.
Sumol Passion Fruit is the one.
Sumol is fine I like it better than fanta
Sumol Orange is the original one, and still the best... it also has pulp inside, but its green colored not yellow... but don't let that fool you... Sumol Passion Fruit is also really good
I really recommend you to try Frisumo and/or Sumol pineapple soda. I think you could find it in any Portuguese grocery store...
Hello from Italy! The European community has established that plastic bottle caps must remain attached for environmental reasons. Almost always the bottle is thrown into the separate waste collection but the caps end up in the non-recoverable or worse still in the environment. Last July I was traveling around the USA and I don't remember if I had a Mountain Dew in Baltimore or Washington DC... I'm still digesting it now
😂 I have never had a Mountain Dew, the colour alone was off-putting enough for me
This Orangina in video is from Poland, produced for Polish market.
Of course you do not grow oranges in Poland, but indeed the orange juice concentrate is made in a country where they are grown, then shipped all over Europe in tanks, and in a local production company the water and other ingredients are added and the product is bottled.
(because shipping bottles would cost a lot more)
Apparently the Polish version, which is likely cheaper than e.g. Spanish or French product, is then exported to the USA.
Even when it would not be bottled in Poland, there still would be versions specially bottled for Poland (with Polish text).
If you like sparkling water, then try a schorle. 60% juice and 40% sparkling water. The most popular version in Germany is apple schorle. But you can use any type of juices you prefer.
Getting Schorle straight from the farmers market just hits the spot.
You can vary the juice to water ratio as you like, 60/40 is only the most common ratio for factory-mixed apple schorle drinks sold in Germany. As for me, I prefer a 30/70 ratio even with apple schorle, and for orange schorle I may go even lower than that. My favourite is schorle made from exotic multi-fruit juice blends.
German Seltzer are the best!
You need to try the Portuguese ones . Orange Sumol and Pineapple Sumol are the goats!
We also have Brisa, from Madeira Island
Sumol Passion Fruit for the surprise.
Sumol used to be pretty good. Since they started using artificial sweeteners, I've stopped buying them.
I love Brisa!!
Try to find some "Apfelschorle" (Apple juice with carbonated water)
There is not much to be find to be honest. Just take some Apfelsaft (applejuice) and some sparkling water, mix it to your liking and you've got some perfect Apfelschorle. Works with orange juice as well. At least in my opinion. What I like to know if he would like "Kiba" which is Kirsch-Bananen-Saft (cherry-banana-juice).
Yeh when I saw the last video I immediately thought you should try Orangina because that is truly proper 'soda drink' produced from oranges and without a load of crap in it.
Idk if you can get it in the US but my favorite orange soda is San Pellegrino Orangiata (I hope I spelled it right). Literally so good! They also have lemon flavor that’s also amazing
Yes! Orangina is my favourite! The zero sugar also tastes great 👍🏼
Hello from France. You should check out the french Orangina ads from the 90s too. They're fun. Especially the ones for “Orangina rouge à l'orange sanguine”, “mais pourquoi est-il aussi méchant? Parce que Ahahahah!” :D
I totaly agree ! All the Orangina's ads from the 90's were crazy fun ! And, of course, red Orangina...
Try the italian san pellegrino Orange soda if you can get a hold of it
Love the lemon one too, even their mineral water is great.
pompelmo ;)
S tier drinks, there.
As a kid, we always knew we were in France because we could drink Orangina. It became available here later, but there's something about drinking it at a pavement cafe. France was so far ahead of the UK in quality of food, still is, but the gap has closed a bit.
These days, I just add a little sparkling mineral water to fresh orange juice with bits. Way cheaper and tastes just as good.
Orangina legendary slogan in french says " il faut secouer orangina, sinon la pulpe elle reste en bas" " you must shake orangina, if not the pulp stays in the bottom"
"Oranginaaaaaaaa" 😁
@@lithitbzh parce queeeeee !!! ( becauseee !!!!! )) try tio watch the ads on youtube , type '' pub orangina rouge 1996 ''' , it's will make you laught
About the fruit sediment in the bottle of Eurorangina was the center of the ad campaign for DECADES.
Especially in France with totally crazy and funny commercials around the fact that the bottle had to be shaken first and that is also a slang for "crazy".
Europe: "No chemicals in our drinks!" , US: "OVERREGULATIONS!" 😄
We do have chemicals in some of our drinks. In our fanta there are like 7 e numbers. Then again it is considered one of the worst orange sodas, the discount soda I can get where I live only have 2 e numbers. E numbers doesn't mean it's necessarily artificial and some you actually need like E300 (vitamine C).
@@JutlandAngel E300 is actually ascorbic acid which is artificial vitamin C. Excessive consumption can cause kidney problems.

Great Euro -Sodas to try: san pellegrino orange from Italy and Bionade from Germany😊
san pellegrino - YEA these are really great, mor to say about the quality on steroids. Just pure juice and mineral water slightly carbonated.
Not sure if these were already mentioned, but with 3k they probably were 😅
1. The Fanta in my country (the Netherlands) is probably the same as you tried in the first video (as the "Europe Fanta"). It's quite yellow. But even within Europe there are differences, because when I went to Spain or Greece and ordered Fanta there, it was more orange colored (it's called Fanta Orange, but ours might be as well, I don't know), and tasted sooo good ❤. It's more sweet, and to me, that one tasted more like oranges. It might be a bit less carbonated as well. And it always comes in glass bottles, which is great.
2. I think it's natural to grow accustomed to the things you grow up with / are surrounded with, so I was actually a bit surprised that you could (still) taste that the US drinks were artificial / chemical.
3. I'm not sure if it's real pulp on the bottom, BUT (as all Fanta lovers will tell you), it IS important to get that pulp mixed back in. Now, violently shaking it will certainly do the trick but will also make it burst out when opened, right? So the way to go is to gently hold it upside-down a few times. Seriously, you'll taste the difference.
In the ad, they say "Orangina, you have to shake it, or else the pulp stays in the bottom" (translated)
And they're right in an ad for once 😅
12:29 what are the ingredients of the orange juice, because by law European organic orange juice contains only orange juice, not even preservatives.
Dont shake it, just turn around for 5 seconds thats it, the Pulp is gonna distribut itself without carbonation loss. And the annoying cap, twist it downwards like a car key, until one of 2 plastic strings breaks, then you can pull it far more away from the bottle
Hi, thx a lot for that Video. I am from germany and orangina is my favorite for decades. Two hints .. first you have to shake it before you open it .. and second try it on the rocks.. 0.5 l glas full of ice and then orangina above .. and let it stand for some minutes ...
