Nando’s has taken its summer menu up a notch, and it means UK diners now sip on fruity frozen cocktail with their meal.
The rain may be pouring, and the warm weather may be nowhere to be found, but summer looks to have well and truly arrived at Nando’s, as the restaurant has announced that two limited-edition fruity frozen cocktails have been added to the menu.
In what is part of a wider summer menu refresh, with a handful of new and returning favourites having already been tempting the tastebuds of foodie fans over the past couple of weeks, and of course, hot off the heels of the highly-anticipated launch of the new Fully Loaded Chips, the Portuguese-inspired chain has now thrown two brand-new cocktails into the mix.
And people are already calling them a “game changer”.
Having launched nationwide this week, the two fruity-flavoured frozen tipples go by the names of the ‘PERi-cante’, and the ‘Sunset Slushie’.

If you like your drinks as spicy as your food, then the new PEri-cante mixes vodka, mezcal, tangy lime, and a hint of chilli to “take your tastebuds on a flavour journey across the world”, according to Nando’s, while the Sunset Slushie is more of a refreshing affair with lots of bold summer flavours.
The aptly-named Sunset Slushie mixes a dash of vodka, peach liquor, and vanilla, with juicy pineapple and mango for the perfect sweet drink.

Unfortunately though, if you’re keen to try out the new drinks, then it might take a little bit of planning, as not only are they part of a trial and on offer for a limited-time only – with Nando’s having not yet confirmed how long they’ll be available for – but there’s only a handful of UK branches where you’ll be able to order them.

Kings Cross, Westfield Stratford City, Battersea and Waterloo Station, Brighton (Marina), Crawley, Liverpool (ONE), Hull (Princess Quay), Birmingham (Selly Oak), and Wolverhampton (Bentley Bridge) are the other locations.

Over on social media, after the news of the new cocktails release was announced this week, Nando’s fans have been quick to call them a “game changer”.
So as you can tell, they already seem to be going down a treat.

A pop-up ‘sunshine booth’ is landing in Manchester to combat winter blues
Emily Sergeant
A sunshine booth shining special SAD lighting is coming to Manchester this week to combat those winter blues.
As the rain continues to pour down outside and the colder days really begin to set in as autumn draws to a close, Holland & Barrett, the UK’s leading health and wellness retailer, says it’s on a mission to help the nation stay well this winter.
With the days getting shorter and darker, the average Brit will see around nine hours less of sunlight than in peak summer.
The drop in daylight, coupled with both the drop in temperature and the onset of the usual common cold season, can often be found to take a toll on our mental and physical wellbeing, leaving us feeling a little more dull than we’d like to be – which is why Holland & Barrett’s ‘Sunshine Booth’ will be popping up across UK high streets to brighten Brits’ winter wellness routines.
The brightly coloured Sunshine Booth has been crafted with expert lighting, using the lighting featured in SAD lamps.

It’s designed to mimic effects of natural light to help customers feel relaxed and refreshed.
Landing inside Holland & Barrett’s store over at the Trafford Centre later this week, the retailer is inviting customers to pop in and spend up to 20 minutes inside the calming booth to ‘pause and recharge’.
Those looking to brighten their day can pop into Holland & Barrett at the Trafford Centre this Friday (7 November) to visit the Sunshine Booth, with no prior appointment or ticket required.
Not only that, but the first 10 customers who visit will receive a Holland & Barrett goody bag worth £50, packed with products to support winter wellness, boost your immune system, and provide you with additional energy.
Fancy it then? The Sunshine Booth will be in the Trafford Centre’s Holland & Barrett this Friday 7 November from 10am through to 8pm.
