Sunshine, Sips & Sizzling BBQs: Spring into Flavour!

The clocks have sprung forward, the days are getting longer, and if we dare to say it… the sun might just be making a comeback. Spring is officially here, and with it comes a fresh wave of drinks, snacks and celebration worthy weather (hopefully). Whether you’re firing up the BBQ, planning a garden gathering, or just looking for your next refreshing tipple, Bargain Booze is here with brand-new flavours, chilled drinks, and the best on-the-go snacks to help you make the most of the season.

Let’s raise a glass to blue skies, spontaneous plans, and the simple joy of sipping something cold under the sun.

Canned & Chilled: Ready-to-Drink Refreshment, Sorted

Spring is all about spontaneity – and nothing suits those “shall we just sit outside for one?” moments better than a cold can, ready to go.

Our stores are stocked with a huge range of ready-to-drink (RTD) cocktails, all sold chilled so you can enjoy them right away – no prep, no fuss. And this month, we’re shining the spotlight on a tropical favourite:

Cîroc Colada (250ml)

Say hello to sunshine in a can. This limited-edition RTD combines the luxury of Cîroc Vodka with the creamy sweetness of pineapple and coconut. Think Piña Colada, but cooler, and completely picnic-ready. Whether you’re lounging in the garden, beach-bound, or heading to the park, this little can packs a lot of punch.

Serving Suggestion: Pour over crushed ice with a pineapple wedge – or just sip it straight from the can with sunglasses on and tunes turned up.

New Spirits, New Flavours – Hello Spring!

As we wave goodbye to winter, it’s time to refresh your drinks cabinet. This season, we’re bringing the flavour and the fun with brand new spirits that are just made for spring serves and garden sipping.

Smirnoff Miami Peach (70cl)

Juicy, fruity and bursting with peachy goodness, this vodka screams sunshine. Mix it with lemonade or soda for a super-simple Miami Peach Spritz, or get experimental and top with iced tea for a peachy iced cocktail that’s BBQ-ready.

Cîroc Strawberry Limonade (70cl)

Just arrived and already stealing the spotlight, this vibrant pink vodka is packed with sweet strawberries and zesty lemon. It’s basically spring in a bottle.

Try This: Serve over ice with soda water, lemon slices and a few fresh berries for a show stopping garden-party cocktail.

Baileys Toffee Popcorn (70cl)

For something a bit more indulgent, this new arrival is a dessert in a glass. Rich, creamy, and with that unmistakable popcorn sweetness, it’s ideal for post-BBQ sipping or as a naughty-but-nice drizzle over vanilla ice cream.

Flirt Vodka (70cl)

Clean, smooth and effortlessly mixable, Flirt Vodka is a back-bar essential. Great for classic cocktails or with a simple splash of juice.

Serving Suggestion: Flirt Vodka + cranberry + lime = the ultimate spring refresher.

Żubrówka Biala Vodka (70cl)

When considering the tasting notes of Żubrówka Biała, it’s important to distinguish it from the more well-known Żubrówka Bison Grass vodka. Biała is a clear, unflavored vodka, so its characteristics are different.

Serve It With: Apple juice and a squeeze of lime. Trust us – it’s called a Apple Zu, and it’s incredible.

Wines Made for Spring & BBQ Pairings

Warmer weather and longer days mean more time outside – and what better excuse to crack open a bottle of something crisp and fresh? These wines are all about easy enjoyment, great for sharing and even better when paired with picnic snacks or BBQ bites.

Pulpo Albariño (75cl)

Zesty and citrusy with a whisper of the sea, Pulpo Albariño is your go-to white wine for seafood, crisps, olives or even fish and chips. Super refreshing and light – perfect for sipping in the sun.

Yellow Tail Prosecco (75cl) – New in Store!

Welcome to the fizz party. This lively prosecco is fruity and fun, with plenty of sparkle. Grab it for brunches, bank holiday BBQs or when someone says, “Let’s celebrate the sun being out.” No reason needed.

Food Pairing: Think strawberries, popcorn, or even those fiery Cheetos if you like a sweet-savoury mix.

 

BBQs & Beers: A Match Made in Springtime Heaven

There’s no British rite of passage quite like the first BBQ of the year, even if you end up flipping burgers in a hoodie. And no BBQ is complete without a cold beer or cider in hand. These favourites are chilled and ready to grab from our stores – ideal for the spontaneous grill master or garden gatherings.

BrewDog Cold Beer (4 x 440ml)

This one does what it says on the can. It’s a refreshing lager, made to be served ice-cold, and it’s a brilliant all-rounder for meat, veggie burgers or just sitting around chatting while the coals heat up.

Peroni (10 x 330ml stubby cans) – New In!

These sleek little cans are the perfect fridge filler. Crisp, classic, and great for garden sharing, they look sharp and taste even better.

BBQ Pairing: Serve with chargrilled chicken, Caprese skewers, or a pile of crisps.

Cocktail of the Month: The “Stoli Mexico City Rickey”

We love a drink with a little heat – and our Booze Bar Cocktail of the Month brings the fire and the flavour.

What’s in it?

  • Stolichnaya Vodka
  • Pineapple Juice
  • A dash of chilli heat

The Mexico City Rickey is sweet, punchy and just spicy enough to wake up your tastebuds. It’s the perfect cocktail to serve in a tall glass with lots of ice, topped with a slice of pineapple or a chilli garnish if you’re feeling fancy.

Best Enjoyed: In the garden, with the BBQ fired up and the playlist on full blast.
