What was is it like? Can you taste the rice influence or is it more like it has less flavor because of the rice?

The grey label has always been a winner.

Been enjoying these lately, not as sweet as CC and dry and have been looking for an alternative to coke based spirits.

I’ve been drinking them for a while now.
Far less sugar than CC’s which makes for a better taste.

Generally cheaper than CC as well which is a bonus.

Agreed, they go down very easily.

Slapped a 4 pack of these down Saturday night after being on the beers at the footy on Saturday. Went down a treat.

How much and where?

I find the CC premixes give me a toothache the next day, even by only having a few.

I've ditched the cola all together now at home and just go CC's, soda water with a slice of lime in it, I don't mind having a couple using tonic water though for a difference.

My Mrs got them for me to try from Liquorland as they had a cross promotion with Coles - 4 pack for $10.

Having a look at Dans and they price up about the same as normal RTD spirits - $80 odd for a carton

When I'm done on beer for a day or night CC/Jacks and dry the way to go, agreed. Can't do coke mixes anymore, that's where my hangover is.

Me too, I'm curious as to what their husbands drink. :lol:

PS I may or may not have been known to have a vodka and lemonade late at night but I can't confirm or deny those rumours due to being inebriated at the time.
