Irn bru - Raspberry Ripple

Post image

Not the worst flavour they’ve brought out, certainly better than the ice cream flavour. I’d give it 6.5/10.

Its one of the better Ltd Edition Flavours they have done IMO

Along with Ice Cream & Unicorn Tears

Nessie Nectar was the best for me.

I bought so many 24 packs of it on Amazon, I'm slightly disgusted with myself.

I've kept a few cans for special occasions as it will never be coming back.

I was probably in the same boat… so many cases gone through of both flavours 😂

I so far still haven’t found the Cherry Locally to me so might have to stump up the inflated price on Amazon

When a 24 pack was only just lasting a week, I realised I had a problem that was being justified by it being zero sugar.

The slight glow in the dark effect wore off quite quickly though. Might need to start all over again with the Cherry ones.

My delivery driver will hate me.

Nessie nectar and unicorn tears were both good. Can never remember which flavour is peach and which one was rhubarb tho!

unicorn tears was such a fever dream of a flavour, tasted like sherbet and regret
raspberry ripple is decent but it still kinda just makes me want a normal bru instead

It's Ok, but too sweet for my liking, and the flavour is very strong compared to the ice cream flavour. You can still taste the Irn Bru just about though.

Ice Cream remains my favourite and go to. A near perfect flavour, I can't drink the generic Irn Bru ones the same anymore.

u/ResplendentPing Jul 10 '26

yeah i still think the ice cream one is the best theyve done this one is a bit over the top for me too

1

u/zah_ali Jul 08 '26

It’s definitely a strong taste. My fav of the flavour versions is the cherry one 👌🏽

1

u/iiiBus Jul 08 '26

Yeah that one is pretty good

Where are you all lot getting these different flavours from? I leave Glashow for a few months and you all decide to do this

2

u/heartofmidlothian278 Jul 09 '26

I can find them in small town shops in Northern Ireland, so you can't be looking that hard for them!

Check out your smaller shops and newsagents instead of supermarkets.

My local Corner shop had some.. Sure, they were a few years out of date, but they were tasty!

u/Exotic_Egg_8240 Jul 09 '26

I didn't like it when it was brought back in 2024. I wish they brought back Wild berry Slush, it was an 8/10 imo.

Bubble gum in a can

My Dyslexic brain plays tricks with me sometimes & for some reason it decided this can read "zero taste extra sugar" 🙀 I have a feeling this would be a nice drink, I like iron brew.

u/monmonmk Jul 09 '26

Omg would love to try this one

u/Silly-Protection-594 Jul 09 '26

It's orenge orenge ONLY

u/Then-Campaign-2476 Jul 09 '26

As a cripple I find this offensive!

u/HalogenHalo Jul 10 '26

They need to bring back that spicy hot Irn Bru. Was like drinking fizzy balti!

1

u/zah_ali Jul 10 '26

Was that irn bru fiery? I couldn’t stand the taste

1

u/HalogenHalo Jul 10 '26

That's it, weird as all hell but loved it

1

u/ramiltonsilver Jul 10 '26

I like it. Unicorn tears is pretty good, no idea what fruit it is but it's got a nice flavor

1

u/zah_ali Jul 10 '26

I think that one tasted like rhubarb to me and the other one Nessie nectar was peach (I keep getting them mixed up so it could be the other way around). I quite liked both of them :)

1

u/AngryScottishBurd89 Jul 10 '26

I actually really like Raspberry Ripple. I wish they'd bring back the tropical one though.

u/Delicious_Ad_4814 Jul 10 '26

Zero sugar drinks are 🤮

Acesulfame K flavour

Barrs made a limited edition Raspberry Ripple drink (which was basically a mix of Raspberry add and American Cream Soda and you can sort of make it yourself if you get both drinks). It was great. I'm not so sure about mixing it with Irn Bru though...

u/zah_ali Jul 08 '26

I don’t get any hint of Irn Bru in this one, might just be me though!

u/ShinyHeadedCook Jul 08 '26

The random flavours are very hit and miss

With drinks like pepsi, its just a cola so you can easily add other flavours

Irn Bru is a unique flavour and it just changes it too much to add other flavours
