On the way to Waitomo we stopped off at the famous Paeroa, original home of a famous drink invented and brewed here. We just had to try it.

Paeroa itself looks to have died some time ago (ok so it is Sunday and nothing is open) but any fresh paint and polish seems to have long since faded. However there does seem to be plenty of motability scooters zipping up the high street (complete with flags swinging from the back of them)

So, just in case you were wondering. L&P consists of water, fizz and lemon. Oh and it is now brewed by Coco Cola probably miles away too. Tastes ok though.

Moving on….
