With the UK set to experience a heatwave this week, there's no better time to indulge in a new tipple in the sunshine. Luckily, Asda has just the thing for us to enjoy in the greenery with our friends.
Enter Asda's latest Extra Special gin collection, but this time there's a twist: they're all sweet shop themed.
If you're in the mood for some nostalgia, Asda's new range of sweet shop inspired gin includes the flavors: strawberry laces, cola cubes, and rhubarb and custard.
Part of the supermarket's Extra Special range, they're available in-store today and clock in at £18 each for a 70cl bottle.
Each bottle of gin has an alcohol volume of 40%, making them best enjoyed with some tonic water or a soft drink for a very tasty summertime drink.
First up is the Extra Special Strawberry Laces Gun, which is infused with glitter to make a shimmery alcoholic beverage. You can expect a classic, sweet strawberry flavor, and this is best enjoyed as a fruity cocktail or mixed with some lemonade or tonic water.
Next up is the Extra Special Cola Cube Gin, which has a hint of golden shimmer. Add some ice and lemon for the perfect blast from the past.
Finally, the sweet and sour Extra Rhubard Custard Gin features a tangy rhubarb flavor with creamy vanilla custard.
Speaking about the novel range, the Spirits Product Development Manager at Asda, Marion Muir said: "Novelty gins have become a summer essential for our customers who love to try innovative and wonderful flavors."
"The new range has been created to ensure the gins are both delicious to drink yet also dazzling to look at, delivering popular flavors we know the nation loves, and at a great price point too."
Looks like it's time for a trip to Asda!
