Gin and tonic After Eights are hitting UK shelves next month

After Eights has had a bit of a modern makeover, in the form of a limited edition gin and tonic flavour.

The new boozy version is being released in the run-up to Christmas, and is sure to divide opinion.

It will feature a boozy gin and tonic-flavour mint fondant filling, which will of course be surrounded by the classic rich dark chocolate we all know and love.

A spokesperson for After Eight said: “Gin has rapidly become the nation’s spirit of choice, so what could be better than combining the flavours of our favourite tipple with the delicious mint fondant and dark chocolate that has made After Eight so popular for almost 60 years.

“After Eight Gin & Tonic & Mint is a delightfully fresh, zesty twist on a classic, and we believe it will prove to be a very popular addition to the range.”

The gin and tonic flavour snacks will be out in all major supermarkets, convenience stores, and online at Ocado and Amazon from September 7th.

And they’ll be around until Christmas so you’ve got time to stock up, if they sound up your street.

What do you reckon then, yay or nay?
