Baileys brings back its popular Piña Colada flavour ready for summer

Emily Sergeant Emily Sergeant - 17th April 2023

Baileys has revealed it’s bringing back its limited-edition Piña Colada flavour, and it’s just in time for summer to arrive.

With the weather getting warmer by the day, and the sun set to peek through the Greater Manchester clouds this week, Baileys has finally confirmed what fruity cocktail fans seem to have been begging for since disappeared from shops and supermarkets.

The Piña Colada flavour drink is now “back by popular demand”.

‘Baileys Colada’ takes the beloved Baileys Original Irish Cream whiskey liqueur and mixes it with the sweet taste of creamy coconut and juicy pineapples.

Originally released in the UK back in 2021, the fruity-flavoured tipple seemed to prove popular pretty much straight away, and started flying off shop shelves nationwide – but despite how beloved it was, the limited-edition drink sadly didn’t stick around for long.

And it left Baileys lovers calling on the drinks company to bring it back.

After hearing the pleas from fans over the last year or so, the company finally took to social media to confirm that the drink soon be back in stock so everyone can “enjoy the taste of summer” once again.

Baileys says the Colada flavour is best served as a 50ml measure over ice, or even drizzled over vanilla ice cream for “an extra summery treat”.

But if you’re feeling more adventurous, then you can even whip up a Baileys Colada Cocktail by blending 50ml of Baileys Colada with a handful of pineapple and ice to properly “kick-start” your summer.

Manchester City fan gets treble tattoo before Champions League final

Danny Jones Danny Jones Manchester City fan gets treble winner 2023 tattoo before Champions League final

We’ve seen plenty of tattoos gone wrong down the years and even more football fans getting ahead themselves, but it must have taken a special kind of confidence for this Manchester City fan to get the treble tattooed on his body before the Champions League final has even been played.

Man City may have taken one step closer to matching historic rivals Manchester United‘s achievement of winning the treble in 1999, lifting their fifth Premier League title in six years and adding yet another FA Cup to their trophy cabinet, but there’s still one massive game they need to win before they can boast the same.

The Blues take on Inter Milan in the Champions League final — just the second in their history — this weekend and have only ever won one continental trophy by beating Polish side Górnik Zabrze in the European Cup Winners’ Cup back in 1970.

Nevertheless, after yet another stellar domestic season and with two-time UCL winner Pep Guardiola at the helm, most fans, rivals and neutrals alike all think this is the year they’re going to lift their first Champions League — in fact, this man is certain of it.

The diehard City fan, simply known as Stuart on TikTok, shared multiple clips on his account on Tuesday, the first of which showed the treble tattoo in progress and has already had nearly 200,000 views in less than 24 hours.

Naturally, the comments underneath the videos are as you’d expect, with people remarking, “you’ve just made Inter win”, “he’s gonna regret that”, “RIP bro”, “pov: 2021” — the last CL final they qualified for and lost to Chelsea despite being heavy favourites — and so on.

However, responding to haters in the comments, Cityzen Stuart’s confidence looks to be unshakable, stating that it’s now “impossible” for them to lose and there’s “not a chance” Pep goes another yet without winning another Champions League.

Having already flown over to Turkey for the final in Istanbul this weekend, he shared a more recent video showing the tattoo in more detail, complete with full colour and shading.

Football fans are often superstitious (it’s such an unpredictable sport that it’s hard not to be) but it’s fair to say a lot of people are now worried he might have jinxed it, not to mention every single Red hoping that he has. For his sake, he better hope the footballing gods don’t take this kind of stuff into account.

In fact, this isn’t the first time a City fan has gotten a little bit ahead of themselves and put money and ink where their mouth is, as our minds immediately go back to 2009 and the time a supporter got a Champions League winners tattoo for the following 2010/2011 season.

This year’s final kicks off at 8pm on Saturday, 10 June and City fans everywhere will be hoping to Pep and co. lift the Champions League trophy in the club’s history and win a historic treble in the process.

They are already going to go down as one of the best squads ever assembled but, for many, this could see them held up there as the greatest of all time. The question is, can they take that final step?
