Loose Women left gagging after tasting Nadia Sawalha's 'disgusting' Big Brother drink

The Loose Women were discussing strange food combinations whilst on Thursday's edition of the ITV panel show when they tried a special concoction Nadia made whilst on Big Brother

Panellists on Loose Women have been left recoiling in horror after trying a drink specifically made by Nadia Sawalha.

Nadia was on the ITV panel show on Thursday (October 12) and was joined by Kaye Adams, Jane Moore and Linda Robson. The foursome were discussing strange food combinations following footage of Big Brother housemate Jordan mixing mayonnaise into a Pot Noodle.


Kaye was quick to dismiss the mixture, saying: "To be honest, I'm horrified enough by the Pot Noodle." Nadia also could not believe the odd combination, adding: "It's only day four and they're already desperate for nutrients."

Nadia then explained that during her time in the Celebrity Big Brother house, she - together with friend Perez Hilton - came up with a new drink. Sawalha went into the house in the winter of 2015, living alongside the likes of Katie Hopkins, Katie Price and Michelle Visage. Nadia was evicted from the house after 24 days.

She elaborated that well into her stint on the show, she and celebrity blogger Perez were "desperate" to go out for the night. As a way to treat themselves, the pair invented a new concoction - a "Caffe-Cola-ta", made up of coffee, cola and ice.


The fellow panellists were left grimacing as Nadia explained: "All the other housemates were so annoyed at us, cause we had used the coffee and the coke and the ice. But oh my God, we loved it and it gives you a crazy buzz!"

The foursome were provided with a glass of the new drink, and as each took a sip of the drink, Scotswoman Kaye said: "It's like an energy drink, isn't it?" Immediately afterwards, Linda began to gag and spit the drink out, grimacing as she drank.


Nadia was quick to distance herself from her own drink, as she was left recoiling in horror at the beverage. She pulled away and screamed: "It was in a different world when we had this!"

The former EastEnders actress was also quick to insist that she wanted to make the drink herself, but said that production would not let her. She admitted that the ratios made by producers were wrong, but it would be tasty otherwise.

Linda was quick to quip back: "It's disgusting, Nadia! It tastes like a mistake," which caused the audience in the studio to erupt into fits of laughter. Kaye joined in on the pile-up, saying: "We're all very disappointed, aren't we?"
