For those that can't turn down that Cola feeling........ Just found a new flavouring bottle in Sainsbury (their own brand) and it is Cola flavour. I don't like giving Meg diet coke as the aspartame really doesn't seem to suit her at all so I had an experiment with this and so far so good. It is in rapeseed oil and flavouring but doesn't specify which chemicals the flavouring is but to be honest you use so little it really should be ok.
We have invested in a soda stream maker and this has been worth its weight in gold over the summer for giving Meg a bit of fizz, I will post our lemonade recipe separately but I made her some cola with the fizzy water, a teaspoon of glucose powder and half a teaspoon of this cola flavour. You do have to keep stirring it with the straw as it doesn't dissolve well being in an oil base but that adds to the fun as she keeps bubbling it up with blowing through the straw, but best of all she is having Coke like everyone else. Might try experimenting making ice cream with it next.
