Nostalgic alcoholic drink to return to supermarkets this summer after being discontinued 10 years ago
A NOSTALGIC alcopop that was much-loved by clubbers in the 90s and 2000s is returning to supermarket shelves. Ten years after disappearing from British supermarkets and convenience stores, Bacardi Breezers are back. They'll be coming in the flavours Zesty Orange, Zingy Lime and Crispy Watermelon and will be priced at just £2 a bottle. The fruity alcopops were once a rite of passage for teenagers having their first alcoholic drinks or going clubbing for the first time. Many will have fond memories - and now they'll be able to enjoy the nostalgic drink once again, just in time for the summer. You'll be able to get Bacardi Breezers in major supermarkets and in convenience stores too. They'll be landing in B&M from July, Aldi from August and Sainsbury's from September. Bacardi has said they'll be available in convenience stores from July but some shops have already said they've got the alcopops in stock. They include Stevenston Post Office & Convenience Store in Scotland, USAVE Grocery Store in Carnbroe, Your Store Premier Sinclair Street in Greenock and Premier Express Linwood. The shops have all posted photos of the Breezers on their shelves, with one teasing: "Guess what's back." Bacardi Breezers first launched in 1990 and quickly became a nationwide phenomenon. Alcopops were wildly popular at the time and the competition included Smirnoff Ice, Hooper's Hooch, WKD, and later on VK and Reef. HANGOVER CURE Breezers then disappeared off shelves in 2015, leaving shoppers disappointed. More grown-up flavours like lemon and elderflower were launched in 2019, but the original Breezer flavours haven't been seen in the UK for 10 years. They will now be permanent additions to supermarket shelves, Bacardi has told The Sun. The company has said one of the reasons for the return is "strong demand from a new generation of consumers". Flavoured alcoholic drinks are becoming more popular, particularly among Gen Z. In particular, the pre-mixed Buzzballz have been going viral on TikTok. Bacardi is hoping the Breezers will appeal both to the younger generation and to those who will remember when they were last on shelves. The brand recently brought back another popular alcoholic drink. Patrón XO Cafe, a coffee liqueur drink, was discontinued four years ago - but brought back again in 2024. It's now available to order at 24 branches of The Alchemist across the country, including London, Birmingham and Leeds. What other nostalgic products are being brought back? Bacardi Breezers are just the latest nostalgic products to return to shelves lately. Recently Opal Fruits were brought back a whopping 27 years years after they were axed. The iconic sweets were rebranded as Starburst in 1998. The individually wrapped chewy squares are now available again in Sainsbury's, Tesco and Morrisons. Coca-Cola also brought back its Lime-flavoured drink after axing it around 17 years ago. As of December, Farm Foods was selling a pack of eight 330ml cans of the drink. Ocado and Iceland are also currently selling a 1.75litre bottle of Lime Coca-Cola for £2.50 online. Meanwhile, Tesco recently turned the clocks back to 1995 by selling a range of products in their retro packaging. Classic items like Robinsons, Wagon Wheels and Rocky Bars were all selling in their original packaging for a limited time. The range also included retro fizzy drinks like Pepsi, Pepsi Max, and Tango Orange, Apple and Cherry.

Suki Waterhouse displays impressive abs in mirror snap after sporting huge pair of prosthetic breasts for Pamela Anderson-inspired music video
Suki Waterhouse displayed her impressive abs as she shared a mirror selfie advertising her music merch. The singer-songwriter, 33, took to Instagram on Wednesday to share a skimpy bathroom mirror seflie sporting a triangle bra as she showed off her new phone cases for sale. Her toned and flat torso was on display as she snapped the selfie in the mirror while brushing her teeth. The snap came just hours after she shared a teaser clip from her new track On This Love where she could be seen sporting a huge pair of prosthetic breasts as she whimsically dances in front of a much older man. The music video sees Suki play a sugar baby as she enjoys life with her Playboy mansion-esque sugar daddy - and she revealed that 90s nostalgia and Pamela Anderson were the inspiration for the busty-yet-cutesy look. Suki dons a baby blue frilly figure-hugging halterneck mini-dress in the video, which is made with a ruched fabric. In true 90s style she throws over a big baby blue fu coat to complete the look and her blonde locks are styled in glamorous bouffant waves. On the styling for the music video, Suki told i-D: 'I spent a lot of my childhood watching, like the girls from the Playboy Mansion, like Holly Madison, and I wanted this Bel Air, golf course, thing.' Suki revealed that Baywatch star Pamela was the inspiration for the look, coupled with MTV days and 90s nostalgia. But it was the breasts that really made the 'sugar baby' character, she said, and it was an excuse to go back to having the boobs of her pregnancy days. 'I don't know why I was so obsessed with the idea of having prosthetic boobs, I was like, if we're going to go there, I have to BIG big boobs. 'And also, I think I kind of missed them because when I was pregnant I had such big boobs, and now I don't have them anymore... I was like, I need to go back there.' Sharing snaps from the music video on her Instagram, Suki wrote: 'On this love song and video is out now!! this song has taken two years to finish and it's been by my side through a lot of life. 'I'm so happy you get to hear it. this character is a dreamer & a yearner who loves hard & found herself a partner who matched her in ways others couldn't. so loved having her boobs wish they were mine to keep.' On This Love was a family affair, with Suki's sister Immy directing the video and her other sister Madeleine editing it.

It comes after Suki flaunted some major sideboob in an attention-grabbing display at Met Gala 2025 last week. Suki wowed in a black Michael Kors tuxedo dress which boasted a backless top half, a leg slit and a long black train. She added some classic black heels as she turned heads while joining a slew of big names on the blue carpet, which kicks off the New York museum's annual spring exhibition. The star accessorised with some sparkly diamond bracelets on her left wrist, pairing them with a classic diamond necklace and some sparkly drop earrings. Cutting a stylish figure at fashion's biggest event, Suki struck a series of poses while letting her blonde tresses loose. She accentuated her natural looks with a light makeup palette and toted her belongings around in a classic black clutch bag.
