Co-op to launch range of grapes that taste like a Mojito cocktail
The Co-op said the new variety had been named 'Mojito Fresh' after growers noticed its flavour resembled the popular drink.
The grocer said the flavour of the grapes, which it described as 'sweet with a hint of lime', was developed by growers in Spain who hybridised one flavour of grape with another.
The grapes will go on sale for just three weeks in selected stores and cost £2.90 as part of the convenience retailer's premium Irresistible range.
Kate Byrne-Fletcher, Co-op's head of fresh produce, said: 'This new variety is a must-try for mojito cocktail fans, and we're thrilled to be adding it into our fresh fruit aisle for our members and customers to enjoy as a healthy snack or freezing and adding to summery drinks.
'We're expecting this new variety to fly off the shelves and it will only be in stores for just a few weeks due to the limited seasonal window.'
The variety, which launched last year in Spain, was developed by the fruit development firm Uvasdoce Fresh, and is the first in the new 'Fresh Mocktail Collection' of grapes.

‘Arsenal are not his destination' – Liverpool move into pole position for Real Madrid star
Real Madrid forward Rodrygo Goes remains the most likely big-name departure from the Santiago Bernabeu this summer, but there is still little clarity on where the Brazilian could end up. The Premier League seems his most likely destination, but there is not the plethora of options one might imagine for a player of his talent. The 24-year-old maintained a star billing at the start of last season in spite of the arrival of Kylian Mbappe, but as the season went on, his influence waned. After being taken off during the Copa del Rey final at half-time, he did not play again until the first game of the Club World Cup against Al-Hilal. Despite providing an assist for Gonzalo Garcia Torres, it remains his only start in their last 11 matches. Arsenal ruled out of move for Rodrygo Arsenal were consistently the side most closely linked with Rodrygo over the last couple of months. After moves for Noni Madueke and Viktor Gyokeres though, the Gunners were cast as much less likely to move for Rodrygo, and now Cadena SER report that Arsenal definitively will not be his destination this summer. Image via Getty Images Liverpool his most likely destination Now it appears Liverpool are currently the side most likely to move for Rodrygo. The Reds are currently in pursuit of Hugo Ekitike after signing Florian Wirtz for big money, but if a deal for Luis Diaz to be sold can be orchestrated, they would have more room on the left for a star attacker, and more money to sign one with. Price tag for Rodrygo Prices between €80m and €100m have been quoted for Rodrygo in recent weeks, but increasingly Real Madrid are in a poor negotiating position. The Brazil international seems not to have a place in the starting XI with Xabi Alonso, and he would be an expensive substitute, who would be unhappy with a residual role. With few other destinations on the table, Liverpool may be able to negotiate a lower fee.

As the FTSE 100 hits an all-time high, I'm following Warren Buffett's advice!
It has been a week to pop the champagne corks, with the FTSE 100 index of leading blue-chip shares reaching a new all-time record high. That may seem like a cause for celebration, but it also brought to mind for me some advice from billionaire investor Warren Buffett. Buffett famously cautioned investors 'to be fearful when others are greedy and to be greedy only when others are fearful'. A record-setting index could mean that some investors are getting greedy. So, might now be the time to be fearful as an investor? What Buffett sees as an opportunity When Warren Buffett talks about being fearful, it may sound like a possible cause for concern. Then again, he is also on record as saying that he wouldn't trade a second of good sleep for extra profits. So, what is he getting at when he talks about being fearful when others are being greedy? The way I interpret that is as a caution against being carried away with the excitement of a strongly performing market. Just because the market is doing well does not necessarily mean that it will keep doing so. Importantly, Buffett's approach is not simply to avoid the market when it does particularly well. He does what he always does, which is looking to buy into 'great companies at attractive valuations'. Even when the market overall is riding high, that does not mean that all shares are doing well. Looking for quality at the right price For example, one share I have bought this year is Diageo (LSE: DGE). While it has a stake in Moët Hennessy, I suspect that Diageo's chief executive may not have been popping any champagne corks this week despite the FTSE 100 hitting new highs. That is because it was announced that she was leaving the Guinness brewer. Its share price has fallen precipitously under her relatively brief leadership and the Diageo share price is now 32% lower than five years ago. Clearly, many potential Diageo investors have grown fearful. By contrast, I have been what Warren Buffett describes as greedy, scoping up Diageo shares for my portfolio. I hope the next boss does better, but the company's challenges are not limited to just its choice of chief executive. Many of Diageo's premium spirit brands continue to fight weak demand in key markets. Younger generations are less likely to drink alcohol than their older relatives. That could mean a long-term demand decline like we have seen in the tobacco industry. Still, I reckon Diageo has a lot going for it even now. It owns plenty of strong brands that give it pricing power, a business attribute Warren Buffett values highly. Indeed, Buffett invested in Diageo's predecessor company some decades ago. Diageo is massively profitable. It is also one of only a few FTSE 100 companies to have grown its dividend per share annually for decades. The Diageo share price is still not exactly a screaming bargain. It is selling for 16 times earnings. But I see that as an attractive price for what I reckon is a great business.
