When you could only buy lucazade at the chemist,it came in a glass bottle and was wrapped in orange coloured plastic and the only flavour was the original one.
It was given when unwell as a pick me up! |

"It use to say Aids recovery on the bottle but they removed that when Aids became rife "
When I was about 11 and recovering from genuine flu mum bought a bottle for me. The label has a misprint and said 'ails ' recovery. I thought I was so clever when I spotted it  |

That taste of being very unwell.
I drink litres of cherry Lucozade, but one swig of the original and I'm transported back to my parents' sofa, covered in spots with a temperature, watching cartoons under a blanket.

I still think of it as the hospital drink. |

It used to be a glucose drink really great for diabetic hypos but when the sugar tax came in, they took most of the glucose out.
It is no longer recommended by the British Diabetic association as a remedy for a hypo so is basically pointless now. |
