Fizzy Vimto is the only acceptable one, not a fan of either in squash.

Default Ribena v Vimto

Years ago I spilt a glass of vimto on my mum’s table ... it took the top layer of varnish off ...

Both taste fabulous in real cold water though ..

Fizzy Vimto is nice but the siluting vimto is bleh, so I had to say ribena. I prefer orange high juice if I had to pick.

Vimto isn't a blackcurrant drink, it's more of a fruit drink. Easily the best cordial type drink on the planet.

Vimto by a mile although I don't really drink cordial or fizzy drinks really.

I remember when we were kids my mum read something about the sugar content in vimto and how it dissolved a tooth in a day or something so she banned us from drinking it. My good old nan used to sneak it to us like some kind of drug dealer

Don't like Ribena.....it tastes "thick" to me like syrup. Back in my raving days though a carton of 'bena was like golden elixir

I was of the understanding that Vimto was indeed simply colourings and chemicals whereas Ribena did at least contain a bit of ‘actual’ fruit
