Squash, the fruit flavoured dilutable juice is the crux of many households with kids. And as any parent will tell you, it's like gold dust - here today, gone tomorrow. And as much as we try to encourage our kids to drink more water, it's fair to say that it is sometimes far more enjoyable when accompanied with a mouth-watering fruit flavoured squash.

Remember the days when Ribena was all sweet and syrupy and tasted so so delicious? Everyone soon realised how damaging that was to our teeth, and god knows what else, and we've spent the last few decades knocking back sugar free varieties that aren't quite the same, but somehow do the trick. However, there is one problem with the sugar free varieties, they finish very quickly as we're pouring more to get that sweet hit.

Thankfully, Robinsons has created an 'double strength' sugar free option that doesn't scrimp on sweetness or flavour, but it certainly doesn't come cheap. A 1.75L bottle will set you back £3.50 a pop at most UK supermarkets, but Amazon has slashed more than 50% off and you can now snap it up for just £1.58!

Compared to the standard 1 litre bottle which supplies you with 40 servings, the 1.75L bottle will give you a whopping 70 servings, lasting you almost double the time. So if you want to save a few pennies in the long run, the 1.75L bottle is definitely worth getting hold of, especially with the school holidays fast approaching.

The Robinsons Extra Strength Squash comes in a variety of mouth-watering flavours including the all time original Orange flavour, you can also get mixtures such as Orange & Pineapple, Summer Fruits, Lemon and Apple & Blackcurrant. The special offer of £1.58 only applies to the Orange and Orange & Pineapple flavours, that said, you can still snap up the others flavours for a money-saving £2.25 each, which is still a great saving.

There are some savvy things you can do with your squash that will save you even more money. When the weather's hot, why not make some delicious ice lollies or ice cubes? Why not pour over some crushed ice for your very own homemade slushie? Dilute it and keep it in the fridge in a jug so that it's nice and cold and the kids can help themselves - saves you from going back and forth.

Make sure the kids stay well hydrated when they head off to activities this summer by jazzing up their water with a little sugar free fruit squash. It's not just for kids either, let's be real. If you're wanting to switch to healthier drinks, or need help getting your two litres a day down you, then grab yourself a bottle or two today and save some money.
