pentura Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 It's worth a shot at least! Unlike flavoured vodka, I imagine using a better wine would give better results Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
math125 Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Earlier I saw cans of Echo Falls Spritz in Asda if that floats anyones boat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semmtexx Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Yup have also sodastreamed wine. You need a couple of bottles to fill up the sodastream bottle otherwise it doesn't fizz very well. It's surprisingly ok in a 70s way. Fizz doesn't last that long and mates have hysterics when first go sends wine everywhere. On that note don't try it with milk. Fizzy cappuccino wasn't all that good and the mess took hours to clean up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sawdusty surfer Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Yo! Gas is much more soluble in liquid if the liquid is cold, The colder the liquid the more gas it can hold. Fizzy wine is fizzy because it has CO2 dissolved in it. If you want to decant fizzy wine into plastic bottles, chill the wine as cold as possible without freezing it and also chill the plastic bottles in advance. This way you will lose as little fizz as is possible. Hope this helps. ( It's science,bitch. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoghurt on a Stick Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Nice one Sawdusty Surfer. I think I'll run with that plan of action if I can't find decent cans of fizzy wine. I've really got into prosecco recently. It tastes good and gets you nice and pissed quite fastly. What other flight path do you need I ask myself? I'm such a science slag. The things I'd do for a peek of a bunsen burner flame right now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leoness Posted June 15, 2014 Report Share Posted June 15, 2014 Home Bargains have these cans of Charlemagne Bucks Fizz and Sparkling Perry in at 49p each.. http://www.groupon.co.uk/deals/special/gg-polyverse-ltd-53/36927356 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilduck Posted June 16, 2014 Report Share Posted June 16, 2014 I bought some of the sparkling perry in the pink cans from Home Bargains and tested it out yesterday, it's actually pretty decent! 49p a can and 7.5%, I think I'll be getting a couple more.

Thanks for the input. The other two cans on the link above were a bit too weak for my liking. However, 7.5% is a much better proposition. I haven't got a store immediately near to me but it might be worth my effort driving to one and checking out the taste before I commit to buying a stack of them.

Expectedtofly Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 For this years supply of fizz, I've ordered 3 crates of cans of prosecco from here http://www.richprosecco.com/ It worked out at about £1.15 a can with shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long did delivery take? Just pondering if I've still got time to order before Glasto! Have you tried one? Any good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Festiboi69 Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Just pour it in yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather90 Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 I've bought a load of the perry in a can. I found it in Savers, which i think is the same company as home bargains as the logos are similar. Anyway I tried it, warm, and it was ok. I've drank worse. I might add a little blackcurrant cordial to mine and see how that goes. They also have a selection of cocktails in a can ranging from 59-99p. They are only small too so I think they will cram into the gaps between clothes in my rucksack nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexlogic Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Home & bargain also have the HARDY'S BELLINI cocktails in a can at 99p each. They actually taste pretty decent even when not cold! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peroni Posted May 27, 2015 Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 How long did delivery take? Just pondering if I've still got time to order before Glasto! Have you tried one?

pjdboy Posted May 27, 2015 Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 For a DIY approach: I proposed to my fiancee last year at Glastonbury and I asked my old man to decant some prosecco into a plastic bottle for me to take for the big moment (we stay at my parents the night before Glastonbury, so I gave that task to him to try and keep it all a secret!). It worked ok, still had the fizz, but I don't think it would have lasted any longer than the Wednesday evening - which was when I popped the Q. Here's the method he followed: http://www.efestivals.co.uk/forums/topic/159851-plastic-champagne-bottles/?p=3560561 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
