Why when i drink lucozade i always get a sore throat for days afterwards

Citric Acid: There is 5% citric acid in it and lactic acid. your throat must be sensitive to the acid. Plain orange juice does this to some people. Drink water afterward to reduce the concentration of acid or take a peptic like tums (calcium carbonate).
