Reply to comment by Bassmekanik in TIL that Scotland's favorite soft drink, Irn-Bru originated in New York, USA in 1889 as IRONBREW. by ManiacMango33

Now this may sound like blasphemy, but I did a little experiment a few weeks back and mixed equal parts of 1901 and Xtra. It seems to be the best compromise between flavour, sugar content and caffeine content, but further experimentation may follow.

I personally cannot stand the taste of artificial sweeteners, they always leave a horrible aftertaste. 1901 is a blessing because I couldn't enjoy "original" irn bru anymore.
