Add some ice and an orange slice, and sit back and enjoy your tipple in the sunshine. The one-litre deal runs until May 24 and the 70cl ends on May 28. If the bittersweet thirst-quencher isn't your bag, Asda is also dishing out the deals on another summer staple: Pimms. One-litre bottles of the infused gin are £9.98, down from £13.48 - that's a saving of 26 percent. The Pimm's promo will end on May 28. Elsewhere, Aldi is selling Prosecco for just £4.99 a bottle - a vital Aperol Spritz ingredient. Shoppers can purchase the discount retailer's Italian Prosecco DOCG at a whopping 38 per cent discount from today. But you'll have to be quick as the offer is only available in stores until May 25. The 75cl bottles are described as having "vibrant notes of crisp apple and pear, complemented by delicate floral aromas". What's more, the supermarket is extending its savings to its still wine range. This includes their Animus Douro and their South African Sauvignon Blank with prices starting from just £3.99 a bottle. The Douro red is described as offering "warm red fruit and spicy aromas". It delivers notes of plums and cedar, pairs with pizza, chicken, pasta and is available for just £4.99, a 25 per cent discount. Whereas their South African Sauvignon Blanc sees a massive 33% discount at £3.99. For that price, you can enjoy "citrus fruits, with zesty lime and lemon zest, followed by hints of freshly cut grass and green bell pepper". 2 The deal runs until the Bank Holiday Weekend Credit: Alamy
