If you or your parents were listening to music any time before 1990, chances are a pile of LP records somewhere in your home or garage was recently dusted off and brought to life again on a new record player.

Over the past few years, we’ve seen a return to vinyl, polaroid cameras, and vintage fashion.

In a world of smartphones, social media, and music streaming platforms, there’s something lovely about the tactile experience of putting on a record or holding a Polaroid, capturing a moment that won’t live on your phone.

Has the nostalgia kicked in yet?

With that in mind, we’re excited to see that Fitch & Leedes has created something to sip while you listen to those songs of old, or flip through the snaps you took on your travels back in the day.

A new range, Fitch & Leedes Classics, will take you down memory lane with time-honoured bespoke and expertly crafted retro soft drinks.

Here’s TimesLIVE chatting with Chill Beverages’ marketing manager, James Shaw:

“We wanted to turn back the clock and serve the classics. A simple, classic drink, crafted with simple ingredients and natural flavours, allows us to appreciate its true taste and quality. We took the classics and refreshed them to appeal to the modern-day consumer who is looking for convenience and a healthier, tastier option.”

There are four for you to choose from:

LIME TWIST

The timeless zingy taste of lime and soda with Fitch & Leedes Classics Lime Twist is a delicately sparkling sweet and sour refresher.

PASSIONADE

Fitch & Leedes Classics Passionade is a zesty, modern twist on the familiar tropical favourite – passionfruit, and lemonade.

GINGER BEER

Enjoy the authentic taste of home-brewed ginger beer that refreshes with a fiery kick of ginger spice. Ginger beer was a favourite during the soda fountain era.

Pop a scoop of ice-cream on top to get the full experience.

ROCK SHANDY

Get a taste of the ‘luck of the Irish’ with Fitch & Leedes Classics Rock Shandy, a new take on this timeless bittersweet mix of soda, lemonade, and bitters.

The original is said to have originated in a pub in Blackrock, Ireland.

These timeless soft drinks will be available soon on the Fitch & Leedes website, and in stores across the country, so keep an eye out for them.
