Do they still sell them? I remember being violently ill after an evening drinking them, what a disgusting drink!yuck! even now when I think about them I feel ill!lol I wonder if there the 70s version of alcho pops.

Hayley mentioned then earlier, add to a sweet cider and they are wonderful, or at least I think they were. Could never remember too much the next day;)) Fiona. x

Can you remember Pony's too! Lethal stuff they were!

I do when they were the in drink some times with brandy those and babycham never got drunk how many did you drink Valxxx

Hi Roxanne, Linda beat me to it when she mentioned Babycham. I quite liked them but to me, Cherry B reminded me of cough mixture.lol

Maggy,I remember ponys too!lol I also drank brandy and babychamslol I thought I was soooo sophisticatedlol

remember Thunderbird ? There were loads of different types and each time I hoped we'd bought the strongest lol ! My cousin got drunk on Pink Lady once lol ! Elaine x

Never tried cherry'b's but used to drink dubonnet, how sad is that!!!

The names were so tacky,werent they!lol I dont remember Thunderbirds Elaine, But I do remember Pink Ladys!lol what were we like:-)))

Remember getting drunk on brandy and babycham too. Thinking back those Pony's & Cherry Bs must have tasted like rocket fuel!!

Yes, I remember them! BUT.... I saw them on sale in Iceland last week so perhaps they are making a comeback! Julie

I seem to remember Prince Charles getting into bother for getting tiddly on Cherry B's in his student days! Didn't the B stand for brandy? Dee x

Cherry B mixed with Cider is called a 'leg over'. Wonder why?? LOL Margaret

My mom who is 83 used to love them. I did manage to buy some about 6 years ago and added them to her Christmas pressie. Mary in Spain xx

Margaret,lol !! I cant Imagine;-)))))

oh yes Cherry B and pony were my drinks. I was sick on babycham once but I think that was the prawns I ate of the bloke that came around the pub selling them in his basket. Have never eaten prawns since. Only ever had barley wine once and that made me violent so never touched that after lol

homemade snowballs was another favourite. used ot mix the advocat with cinzano and top it up with a dash of lemonade lol
