But now the zesty original Lemon Hooch is on draught too. The Sun can exclusively reveal the full list of locations you can get it so far. Here they are... Singing Canary - Newcastle Style Bar - Ormskirk The Three Cranes - Rotherham Taphouse & Kitchen - Cleethorpes The Carpenters - Newport The Pen & Wig - Newport Flat Iron - Chorley The Hatchet - Bristol The Bell - Bristol Victoria & Albert - Horwich Bonobo Bar & Canteen - Chester Hooch has said there will be more locations where it's available soon. The fruity alcopop is a mix of vodka and real fruit juice, and comes in at 3.4% ABV. It's being sold for between £5.50 and £5.95 but this varies across pubs and venues. Jacob Barrett, brand manager for Hooch, said at the time: "Launching Hooch on draught is a landmark moment for the brand as we celebrate 30 iconic years. "This isn't just a new format, it's a bold new era for Hooch, designed for longer, more sociable summer serves and promises to bring something refreshingly different to the T-bar."

Alcopops appear to be staging a comeback this year, as brands hope to capture the attention of both Gen Z and those who remember the iconic drinks. Last month, it was revealed that Bacardi Breezers are returning to supermarket shelves years after being discontinued in the UK. Meanwhile, Caribbean-inspired soft drink brand Ka has launched a range of mixed alcoholic drinks for the first time. The drinks launches come as Brits prepare for days of sweltering weather. The UK is expecting to experience its first heatwave of the year later this week. Some areas could see highs of 32C on Saturday. While the warm weather can be perfect for having drinks in the sun, you should remember to keep hydrated and drink responsibly.
