Kinnie hasn’t made its way to the UK. I seen it mentioned in this thread. Decided to try the orange version. Fantastic stuff! I shall be buying more before I leave here.
Thanks for the suggestion! 🙂

As someone that can’t have sugar to avoid gaining weight, but also can’t have caffeine due to health issues, its great. Since my choices are basically only water in a lot of places. Though I buy Kinnie Zero/Zest and Sprite Zero in the supermarkets(Sometimes Fanta Lemon but it still has a little sugar in it).
Maybe you can find Chinotto if you have any Italian shops around. Its similar.
Fellow Brit here – [Fine Wine Sellers](https://www.finewinesellers.co.uk/catalogsearch/result/?q=Kinnie) are the UK stockists and have the complete Kinnie range, even Rhumba, which is excellent. I order from them all the time.
I love this. I really like Kinnie, but not when I’m dieting because I don’t like the zero sugar one. Anyway, apparently it’s such an acquired taste that tourists and expats almost always dislike it, to the point where they think you’re over-patriotic if you’re Maltese and “pretend” to like it.
When I offer it to foreign friends I’m either met with amazement or disgust. There is no inbetween.
I’m so sad I can’t find Kinnie in Canada.
