Technically still here — eternally filed under “back then.”
Yes, it’s still on the shelves, but for so many of us Vimto feels like a pure nostalgia drink — fizzy, fruity, and a tiny bit cheeky. The unofficial cool cousin of everyday squash.
🥤 The Vibe
It was never just squash. Vimto felt special: purple, a bit rebellious, and perfect for showing off at the disco or sharing in the park.
🎉 Where We Remember It Most
- School discos — a giant 2L bottle on the tuck shop table next to Panda Pops.
- Packed lunches — a Vimto can or carton instantly boosted your cool by 10x.
- Cinema trips — a jumbo fizzy Vimto + popcorn = peak luxury.
- Corner shops — that purple label calling to you from the fridge.
📺 The Ads
From fruity chaos to cheeky mascots, Vimto’s ads leaned into the weird — and it worked. If you grew up in the 90s/00s, those purple-soaked spots probably live rent-free in your head.
💖 Why It’s Nostalgic
It still exists today, but it’s tied to a moment: childhood discos, after-school treats, and feeling a bit grown-up for choosing something different to Coke or Fanta.
Memory check: Was yours fizzy at the disco, squash at home, or the ads on telly?
💜 Vimto proves nostalgia isn’t only about what’s gone — sometimes it’s what stayed, but will always belong to “back then.”
