Old Fashioned vs Pink Lemonade vs Fifun Todos: Which Wilson's Is for You?

Three Wilson's drinks, three different moods. People ask us which one to buy almost every day, so here is the honest answer: it depends on who is drinking and what the moment is. This guide breaks each one down the way we would describe it across a counter.

Old Fashioned Lemonade: the classic

Taste: crisp, bright, properly lemon-forward with a balanced sweet and tangy finish. This is the original, the recipe the brand was built on.

Who it is for: everyone, and especially first-timers. If you are buying Wilson's for the first time, start here. It is also the best food companion of the three because its clean acidity cuts through rich and spicy dishes.

Best moments: family tables, suya nights, office fridges, events where one drink has to please everybody.

Pink Lemonade: the showstopper

Taste: the same real-lemon base with a soft hibiscus blush that gives it the pink colour and a rounder, slightly floral finish. It is still lemonade first, not a fruit punch.

Who it is for: hosts. Pink Lemonade is the bottle you buy when presentation matters, because it turns an ordinary table into something guests comment on. It is also the best mocktail base of the three.

Best moments: owambe, birthdays, bridal and baby showers, dinner with friends, anywhere a glass dispenser will be on display.

Fifun Todos: the everyday one

Taste: lighter, easy, refreshing without trying to impress anyone. Fifun Todos means it is for everybody, and that is exactly how it drinks.

Who it is for: daily drinkers, kids' lunch packs, gym bags, and anyone who wants a cold, light refreshment that does not feel heavy. Also the gentlest price point in the range.

Best moments: school runs, road trips, small chops platters, keeping a carton in the boot for Lagos traffic.

Which pack size should you buy?

  • 300ml pack of 12: lunch packs, small hands, portion control, retail shelves.
  • 500ml pack of 12: the standard single-serve. Offices, events, personal stash.
  • 2 litre pack of 3: families, jug serving at the table, mocktail and punch bases. Best value per glass.
  • 600ml Fifun Todos pack of 12: everyday hydration for the household.
