Cherry is having a serious comeback in the UK, with searches for cherry drinks soaring by 46.5% this year. Now, Edinburgh Gin is tapping into the nostalgic trend with its new Cherry Bramble canned cocktail.
There are some flavours that instantly transport you back to childhood, and cherry is clearly one of them. From classic sweets to Black Forest gâteau, the nostalgic fruit is enjoying a major revival — and Britain’s drinks scene is getting involved.
According to new research, searches for “cherry drinks” have increased by 46.5% year on year, suggesting that the UK’s love affair with the sweet, fruity flavour is far from fading.
Now, Edinburgh Gin is embracing the trend with the launch of its latest ready-to-drink cocktail: Cherry Bramble.
Edinburgh Gin Brings Cherry to the Bramble
Inspired by Edinburgh Gin’s popular Black Forest Gâteau Liqueur, the new Cherry Bramble takes the nostalgic combination of cherry and blackberry and gives it a refreshing modern twist.
The cocktail combines the fruity flavours with crisp soda and a touch of citrus, creating a drink designed to balance sweetness with a lighter, refreshing finish.
Rather than requiring a cocktail shaker, multiple ingredients and a trip to the drinks cupboard, Cherry Bramble comes ready to enjoy straight from the can.
For an easy serve, Edinburgh Gin recommends drinking it chilled straight from the can or pouring it over ice. If you’re entertaining, you can also serve it in a coupe glass with a cherry garnish for a more polished cocktail-hour presentation.
The Perfect Autumn Canned Cocktail
While cherry might traditionally remind us of summer sweets and retro desserts, Edinburgh Gin is positioning Cherry Bramble as an easy-drinking option for the autumn season.
The 250ml can contains 5% ABV, making it an accessible option for everything from casual catch-ups with friends to dinner parties and relaxed evenings at home.
And with no mixing required, it fits neatly into the growing appetite for convenient cocktails that don’t compromise on flavour.
Ready-to-drink cocktails have become increasingly popular in the UK, giving consumers an easy way to enjoy cocktail-inspired serves without having to play bartender themselves.
Cherry Bramble Joins Edinburgh Gin’s Canned Range
Cherry Bramble isn’t Edinburgh Gin’s first venture into the canned cocktail category.
The new flavour joins a growing range of ready-to-drink serves, including Hugo Spritz, Raspberry Collins, Rhubarb & Ginger and the classic G&T.
The range is made using natural ingredients, with each drink designed to deliver a full-flavoured cocktail experience with minimal effort.
For anyone who loves a fruity cocktail but doesn’t necessarily want to spend their evening measuring spirits, squeezing citrus and cleaning cocktail shakers, it’s an appealing proposition.
Where Can You Buy Edinburgh Gin Cherry Bramble?
Edinburgh Gin Cherry Bramble will be available at Tesco and Asda from September 2026, making it relatively easy to get your hands on as the new autumn drink begins rolling out.
The cocktail comes in a sleek 250ml can, with an RRP of £2.25.
Whether you’re planning a dinner party, looking for an easy drink to take to a friend’s house or simply fancy revisiting the nostalgic taste of cherry, Cherry Bramble could be one to watch as the UK’s latest fruity drinks trend continues to grow.
