Eiffel Tower Lemonade Crystals Drink

Foster Clark Ltd. was the drinks company in Maidstone, Kent that produced this drink. The bottles were very distinctive and are sold today as vintage. They were presumed to hold liquid crystals rather than drinking liquid.

    Remember Mum making this on Summer days that seem to go on forever. We use to love it & haven't tasted anything as good since. Tangy lemon & sweet taste takes me back to those days hot sticky huge daisy's growing in the hedgerows & haymaker in the fields lovely days.

    My Mum used to make this drink for us in the 50 '. The smell and taste was exquisite.

    Intense lemon flavour, crystals about 3mm insize . Had to uuse boiling water to desolve that stuff. Nothing speedy about it. BUT nothing has come close. The nearest these days is Crystal Lite in American stores or amazon. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Crystal-light-Natural-lemonade-59g/dp/B003TL5Z2K/ref=sr_1_1_s_it?s=grocery&ie=UTF8&qid=1475006390&sr=1-1&keywords=Crystal+lite

    Fondly recall Eiffel Tower and Creamola. Boy did they fizz ! Suspect a taste now would be disappointing. As children we loved very sweet things. I may ,of course, just be a jaded oldie. Pete Barnard

    oh yes, the best lemony flavour ever, tangy and just sweet enough to stop the taste buds shrieking. Why, in this technologically advanced age(!) can it not be re-created

    A bit before my time but I would have loved to try this now, but sadly like a lot of yummy childhood things on here, the nanny health ministers wouldn't allow it and if they did it probably wouldn't taste the same. Sigh!

    I have a Pewter tankard dated 1958 & presented to the top salesman by Foster Clarkes for the most sales of Eiffel Tower during the sales campaign for that year

    Yes this came up in conversation the other day as in the 50s/60s I remember this as a lovely summer drink. the other thing we talked about was Creamola foam which came in a tin and fizzed up when added to water. Has anybody any memories of this?

    just caught this link ..... I remember Eiffel Tower lemonade crystals from late 50s early 60s made by my grandmother and it was the best soft drink ever made! Yes please someone revive this drink as it would be a big hit again. From memory you poured boiling water over the crystals in a jug, stirred until they dissolved, wait to cool, and then bottled the syrup, add water to taste just like you do with squash, gorgeous. I remember that in addition to lemon flavour, which was a taste all of its own, you could also get orange flavour. Mmmmmmmmm

Do you remember these?
