Just like I always do, I just hopped into a supermarket close home only with one product on my mind. The new Mirinda Sorbet. My wife mockingly chuckled as I bought it but I was very hopeful. We were planning to just go out and spend some time under the moonlit sky in our calm Secuderabad Cantonement area. I picked this so called soft-drink as the last item on our list of snack/drink for the evening.
My first gulp and my wife laughed out loud looking at the expression the drink had brought on my face! Need I tell you that I struggled drink the rest of it? It felt as if I was taking some smelly syrup from the 1960s. Please don’t be misled by the TV commercial, the liquid you buy will nowhere feel smooth, orangie or tasty. At Rs 25 for a 500 ml bottle of disappointment and bad taste in the mouth that haunts you forever, its no good.
