Can there be that real and authentic taste in the smoothies of the store? Oh, but to the homemade level they don’t quite get up.

The self-made sima is the best, you can’t get over or around it. Unfortunately, most ready-made drinks taste mostly like ordinary soft drinks, but there are gems on store shelves as long as you know what to look for.
So if you didn’t miss your own Simat, we recommend trying the following store simos. None of it is quite homemade, but close enough to bring a May Day vibe.
Our favorites are:
1. Homeland of Wanhan Porvoo Factory
Homely, quite sweet taste. Reminiscent of childhood.
2. Hommanäs Kotisima
Plenty of carbon dioxide and a good lemon flavor.
3. Kaskein Luomusima
A basic choice. Relatively mild taste.
Next to Sima, of course, fresh monks are covered. You can find the recipe for traditional donut rings here.
Pippuri.fi’s favorites are ready-made.
