Hi All

I am hoping someone in the bushcraft community can help me, the last few times i have been in Finland and Lapland i have had the joys of their hot berry juice drink and have always bought supplies of it back with me, but alas i have now run out.
Can anybody HELP before i have withdrawal as i love the stuff.

Does anybody know if you can get this stuff here in the UK and if so where? OR are any of you fellows going to Finland, Sweden etc where you might be able to bring some back for me, i will obviously remburse the cost and any postage etc to get it to me.

I am looking for PIRKKA SEKAMEHUTIIVISTE which is Pirkka Mixed berry juice, and comes in 500ml or 1Ltr bottles. If anybody can help i would be most appreciative.

Cheers Troop

It's THIS one?

Pirkka is a store brand so It can't be found outside Finland. It says on the description that it's made in Denmark. Maybe someone know similar juice from other brand?

Having never had the Finnish version I don't know if this will be anything like but Rocks Fruit Punch cordial is very nice hot. In Norway we were served a hot blackcurrant punch, Rocks Blackcurrant cordial makes a passable substitute for that.

Thanks Snowfire, not sure it will be close but might gie it a go, was hoping to find someone who could bring some back really, the closest i've found readily available is VIMTO believe it or not, especially if you mix ridena with it but it's still not the same.
