Blackhorse pub in Chester-le-street now makes Strongbow dark fruits slushies, and they look incredible

The sun has finally come out, and there's only two ways we can think to celebrate.

A refreshing boozy beverage and a delicious, cooling ice pop. 

But what if you could consume both at the same time? Well, sort of... 

Strongbow Dark Fruits it now available in slushy form, and it's the perfect summer refresher. 

But it's not just frozen Strongbow Dark Fruits that the Blackhorse Pub have experimented with

Pub Manager Caroline Symm spoke to Pretty 52 about her invention. She said: "The dark fruits cocktail first became really popular last year, but it's not the only cocktail that we do.

Caroline works in the Blackhorse pub. 

"We also have the Edinburgh rhubarb and ginger gin, iron bru cocktail, twister cocktail, we do WKD vodka blue, we do all sorts of slush cocktails.

"But the dark fruits one is the one that seems to have gone crackers on social media."

What a way to celebrate summer — good work!

Recently, a new addition to the Gordon's Gin family had us excited. Gordon's released Pink Gin in a tin after the sweet spirit had been a hit with fans. 

Gordon's Premium Pink Gin, with natural sweetness of raspberries and redcurrents, was released last year and went down very well with fans. 

Hence why, just in time for summer, the famous gin brand has released Pink Gin in a tin addition.

Gordon’s popular Pink Gin now comes in a tin

Just like their mini tins of classic Gordon’s and tonic, the 250 ml tin mixes the Premium Pink Gin with Schweppes tonic. 

The new release is here just in time for the May bank holiday, and is the perfect tipple for the three day weekend.
