Thanks for the info Minja.
I’ve heard of Trader Joe’s but have never gone there. Maybe I’ll have to head out to Draper to check them out.
But I’ll do as you suggest and call first.

I Googled and found that a gourmet store called Pirate O’s carries Orangina. The owner is a former supplier to venerable West Coast gourmet discounter Trader Joe’s.

11901 S 700 E
Draper, UT 84020-8203
(801) 572-0956

Call before you go and ask about Orangina.

oh dear, Lyrix! I’m sorry you couldn’t find Orangina in Utah. It’s in my local grocery store. I’ve read that Whole Foods and Trader Joes have the one liter bottle. Can you look there? I just read today that Suntory, a Japanese company, will buy Orangina for more than $3 billion! I sure hope they don’t change the ingredients.

Next time I see David, I’ll bring him a bottle of Orangina. I bet he’ll love it. It’s a very refreshing drink.

Minja, I never heard of Orangina before, so I googled it.
Sounds quite yummy!

Alas, went grocery shopping today & this concoction doesn’t seem to be sold in Utah.
So Minja, you’ll have to introduce David to the drink when he’s in your neck of the woods.

Two of my favorite juices are Orangina—great sparkling zest!—and Dole Orange Peach Mango for delicious sweetness. I didn’t know about Red Bull, the energy drink, until I read that some were drinking it during the long hours in the studio for the Christmas album. At first, I thought it must be a beer, although I didn’t think they would drink beer, especially while at work. Red Bull contains caffeine, though, so I doubt if David drinks it.
