Like many retailers, discount store Aldi has also launched a range of new non-alcoholic drinks in time for summer – and customers are spoiled for choice.

Whether your tastebuds are after something more exotic with coconut or mint, the popular German brand offers a number of alcohol-free variations of popular tipples.

According to bargain lovers on Facebook, Aldi customers can now get their hands on new sparkling flavored mocktails – and those who have already tried them have described the drinks as “amazing”.

Among the options is the Vive Piña Colada, which will transport you straight to a sunny beach, surrounded by palm trees and coconut trees.

Vive’s collaboration with Aldi, which features bold colors and illustrations, also came out with the Vive Mojito Mocktail – a must-have if you love mint.

Other drinks to look for the next time you shop at Aldi include the Cosmopolitan Mocktail as well as the On The Beach Mocktail.

Furthermore, in addition to the drinks being free of alcohol and sugar, the new mocktails are also low in calories, with the Piña Colada being just 3cal per 250mlAs one Instagram user said, Lindsey Willis.

The new alcohol-free range has already proven to be a huge hit with customers, especially with the weather finally warming up.

The news was also shared on Extreme Couponing and Bargains Group in the UKwith over 100 people rushing to comment to share their thoughts as well as tag their friends and family.

“These are adorable,” one person said, urging others not to sleep on the bargain.

Someone agreed, also praising the non-alcoholic drinks.

”I eat these every year, they are delicious.”

“We’ll have to try them,” another told his friend.

“I can confirm that Pina Colada is amazing with white rum,” said a fourth, who added some booze to the cocktail.

However, while reviews were mostly positive, not everyone was a fan of the drink – which reportedly retails for £2.49.

When is the best time to shop at Aldi?

WHEN it comes to shopping at Aldi, the best time to do so depends on what you want to buy.

For reduced items – when stores open

Items with red stickers are rare across Aldi’s 830 UK stores, but the supermarket says none of its food goes to waste, so there are some to be found – if you’re quick.

A spokesperson for the supermarket said: “All items are reduced to 50 per cent of the recommended retail price before stores open at their best time or best before date.”

This means you’ll have a better chance of finding reduced-price foods if you go to stores as soon as they open.

Opening hours vary depending on the store, but most open from 7am or 8am. You can find the hours of your nearest store using the supermarket online store finder tool.

For special purchases – Thursdays and Sundays

Special Buys are Aldi’s weekly collection of items that it doesn’t normally sell, which can range from pizza ovens to power tools.

New stock arrives in stores every Thursday and Sunday, so naturally these are the best days to visit for the best one-off specials.

For an even better chance of bagging the best items, head to your local store during opening hours.

However, you don’t need to go to stores to buy a Specialbuy.

They are also on sale online, usually at midnight on Thursday and Sunday, and you can order them up to a week in advance.

As long as you spend at least £25, items will be delivered free of charge.

Remember: once they’re gone, they’re gone, so if there’s something you really want, visit asap

One disappointed Aldi shopper, for example, advised other customers to avoid a flavor.

”On the beach it’s rancid, but 3 others are fine.”

According to Fun agencywho helped the brand create the delicious drinks, you can enjoy the drink as a ready-made mocktail – or add your favorite tipple.
