Morrisons launches UK supermarket first with brand new £1.50 drinks ‘on tap'
Morrisons has just launched a brand new product that's thought to be a supermarket first in the UK. The retailer is now selling award-winning cocktails from The Drinks Bureau 'on tap' ahead of the bank holiday weekend. There are three different classics to choose from, including Lychee Martini, Strawberry Daiquiri and of course, the Passion Fruit Martini. Each ready-to-drink cocktail is served in a 1.5L box with its own tap – much like those boxed wines we couldn't get enough of in the 00s. Priced at £15 per box, or £12 for Morrisons More Card customers, shoppers will get 10 servings out of each at 10% abv. This works out at around £1.50 per serving for each drink, which is a bargain when you consider most pre-mixed tinnies cost more than £2 each. The cocktail boxes are available exclusively in more than 280 stores nationwide from May 21, but only for a limited time, while stocks last. Frankie Snobel, founder of The Drinks Bureau said: 'If you love delicious cocktails and enjoy sipping with friends, then you can't miss this stunner of a deal at Morrisons. 'We're passionate about spreading cocktail joy and our seriously tasty 'on tap' Party Boxes are the perfect way to celebrate the summer!' This comes after Morrisons recently unveiled a brand new three for £10 offer for More Card customers. More Trending This deal runs across meat and fish products and includes options such as BBQ Asian Style Salt & Pepper Pork Belly Slices, Tikka Chicken Breast Steaks, Smash Burgers, Hot Honey Chicken Wings, Smoked Haddock, Scallops and Streaky Bacon. Shoppers have praised the offer, with True Dream, writing on Facebook: 'That's a fantastic deal and perfect for a barbecue!' Similarly, Dharmeshta Mistry said: 'Great prices!'

Lidl's new 'perfect for summer' 89p cocktails come in 17 flavours
Shoppers can find some of their favourites tipples in the range including Strawberry Daiquiris, Pina Coladas, Cosmopolitans and Espresso Martinis As the temperature rises and the bank holiday is just around the corner, Lidl has unveiled its new ready-to-drink cocktail range. These canned cocktails can be picked up for as little as 89p, making them the perfect budget-friendly choice this summer. Lidl describes its 'ever-popular' Bitterol Spritz as 'perfect' for basking in the sun and providing a 'taste of summer'. Blended with prosecco and a hint of bitter orange, it's touted as a delicious way to 'elevate' any evening or sunny afternoon. For those seeking something with a bit more kick, there's Lidl's 'zesty and fashionable' Margarita, which the supermarket claims will add some 'zest to any day out'. With 17 options on offer in total, there's likely something to cater to every palate and event. An after-dark 'treat', whether savoured in a glass or straight from the can, is the Espresso Martini, which Lidl claims will 'shake up any evening'. The supermarket adds: "Smooth and rich with a strong coffee kick, this sophisticated drink is sure to keep the night buzzing with excitement." Another choice for those wanting something fruity and exotic is Lidl's canned Piña Colada cocktail. There's also Rum and Pineapple, and Strawberry Daiquiri cocktails, reports the Mirror. Lidl suggests these provide a "refreshing getaway in a can, transporting Brits to a beachside escape, with no passport required". The supermarket's ready-to-drink cocktail range is now available in stores across the country, while stocks last. The full list of cocktails is as follows: Bitterol Spritz - 89p Summer Punch - 89p Passionfruit Martini - 95p Strawberry Daiquiri - 95p Mojito - 95p Raspberry Mojito - 95p Pina Colada - 99p Raspberry Vodka - 99p Vodka Diet Coke - 99p Rum and Pineapple - 99p Gin and Tonic - 99p Diet Gin and Tonic - 99p Pink Gin and Tonic - 99p Rum and Cola - £1.49 Cosmopolitan (Available from May 20) - £1.99 Espresso Martini (Available from May 20) - £1.99 Margarita (Available from May 20) - £1.99 The launch comes as Lidl plans to expand its presence across the UK. Earlier this week, the supermarket giant revealed an updated list of 40 locations where it intends to open new stores. These new outlets are part of Lidl's ambitious plan to operate 1,100 UK stores by the end of 2025. Over the Christmas 2024 period, Lidl welcomed nearly two million more customers than the previous year, with festive sales rising by 7% year-on-year - surpassing £1 billion for the first time. It's important to remember to drink responsibly, which means consuming alcohol in moderation and knowing your limits. The NHS recommends drinking no more than 14 units of alcohol a week, spread over three or more days. This equates to around six medium (175ml) glasses of wine or six pints of 4% beer. While there's no completely safe level of drinking, adhering to these guidelines can help reduce the risk of damaging your health.

The travel-sized cans will be perfect for sunny drinks in the park or on the beach. The Met Office earlier confirmed the UK basked in the hottest May on record on Thursday, with temperatures climbing to a balmy 28C. However temperatures are expected to fall gradually over the bank holiday weekend to around average by Monday. Another three exciting new flavours will be released on May 20, ahead of the Spring Bank Holiday the following week. These are Espresso Martini, Cosmopolitan and Margarita. Here is the full list of flavours you can get in stores now: Passionfruit Martini - 95p Strawberry Daiquiri - 95p Rum and Pineapple - 99p Pina Colada - 99p Mojito - 95p Raspberry Mojito - 95p Raspberry Vodka - 99p Vodka Diet Coke - 99p Bitterol Spritz - 89p Summer Punch - 89p Rum and Cola - £1.49 Gin and Tonic - 99p Diet Gin and Tonic - 99p Pink Gin and Tonic - 99p Cosmopolitan (available from May 20) - £1.99 Espresso Martini (available from May 20) - £1.99 Margarita (available from May 20) - £1.99 Lidl says the Bitterol Spritz is "mixed with crisp Prosecco and a refreshing splash of bitter orange".

The Passionfruit Martini is said to be "an exotic twist on a classic". Lidl's range of new tinnies appears to rival a range brought out by fellow discount supermarket Aldi back in March. Aldi's range starts from 99p, so the Lidl range is slightly cheaper. The supermarket's Daiquiri cans are 99p, while its Infusionist Spicy Margarita costs £1.99. Meanwhile Aldi's Hard Seltzers cost £1.09 - 53% less than the iconic White Claw drinks. The 125ml cans quickly became a hit on social media, with shoppers raving about the drinks. One person wrote: "They are so good aren't they! I actually went and got more today." Another said: "They are delish." Someone else wrote: "These r amazing…. Espresso martini also great." Supermarkets often offer deals on cans of alcohol with multi-buy offers. In Tesco, you can get four cans for the price of three if you have a ClubCard. Asda and Waitrose also have a four for three deal. Sainsbury's has the same although it also includes small bottles of wine and craft beer. The Co-op has a deal where if you buy one you get the second half-price.

How to save money buying alcohol Alcohol can be pricey if you're planning a party or hosting an event but there are ways to cut costs. It's always important to drink responsibly, here, Sun Savers Editor Lana Clements share some tips on getting booze for the best price. Stocking up can mean big savings on drinks, especially if you want to buy wine or fizz. The big supermarkets regularly offer discounts of 25% when you buy six or more bottles of wine. The promotions typically run in the lead up to occasions such as Bank Holidays, Christmas and Easter. If you know you are going to need booze later in the year, it can be worth acting when you see offers. Before buying your preferred drink make sure you shop around to find the best price – you can use a comparison site such as or Don't forget that loyalty cards can unlock better savings so make sure you factor that in too. If you like your plonk, wine clubs can also be a good way to save money and try new varieties. You'll usually have to pay a membership fee in return for cheaper price so work out if you will be buying enough to make the one off cost worthwhile.
