Summer is a chance to sit back, relax, and enjoy the finer things in life - even if that happens to be a boxed version of your favourite drink.

Now, if you live in the UK, you can sip on your favourite cocktails for less, as supermarket giant, Tesco, is selling giant 2-litre boxes of Passion Fruit Martini and Flamingo Colada for just £12 ($15).

If you're a Tesco regular, these tipples will likely not be new to you. Last summer, the supermarket launched its All Shook Up canned range of cocktails, which included flavours like Passion Fruit Martini and Violet Cosmo.

These drinks retailed for just £1.50 ($1.89) - a fraction of what these cocktails would cost at even the cheapest of bars.

Both the tinned Passion Fruit Martinis and their larger boxed counterparts are made of three percent fruit juice as well as sugar syrup, natural flavours, and vodka. They have an ABV of 4.5%.

Whereas the Flamingo Coladas are made from grenadine and lime, shaken with fruit alcohol, white rum, and sugar syrup.

The All Shook Up range even includes an Espresso Martini, which, admittedly, hasn't gone down well with Tesco patrons.

"Genuinely disturbed after having two sips of @allshookupdrink's espresso martini can. WHY would you put fruit alcohol in an espresso martini? How did this make it through taste tests? @Tesco have you tried this? Has anyone else tried this? How hasn't it been stopped?!" wrote one customer.

But don't let this put you off the giant cocktail boxes, as the Passion Fruit Martini has gone down a storm.

"Tesco passion fruit martini cans are the best thing that's happened to me in a long time," wrote one happy customer.

On that note, BRB, off to catch some rays and enjoy some cocktails.
