Has the drink bitter lemon, diet or original, been completely discontinued?

Morrisons state they no longer stock it. And I’ve not found it on SM shelves anywhere, no matter what one I look in.

Currently stocked by both Tesco and Asda, or so the tinterweb informs me.

Tip. If you can't find bitter lemon but you can get some tonic water, mix a glass of that with some lemon juice and a little dissolved sugar if you like. Or if you can't be assed doing he lemons, just a little good quality lemon cordial.

Tesco stock its own brand (yeuk) and Schweppes. M&S stock it too.

I have been looking in all SMs but not finding it here in Lowie. But not been to Sainsburys since leaving London, though my sister works at the Great Yarmouth branch. She is still on self isolation and not sure when she can return to work.

I got so fed up with trying to find any cold drink without sweeteners that I now mix fruit juice with sparkling water, half and half. It's lovely and cheap too. I'm sure it would work with lemon juice

Try Stevia. IT's better than sugar.
