Tom Walker heads to Merchant City to try Irn Bru cocktails – complete with Polaroid photo 'garnish'

Glasgow singer Tom Walker headed to the Merchant City after his sell-out Barras gig for some Irn Bru cocktails – created in his name.

The BRITS breakthrough winner hit up The Dam to try the patriotic new drinks last night. He had the 'OG Ginger Spritz' Just You And I(IRN-BRU) – a nod to Scotland’s most-loved drink with a kicker of Arbikie’s Kirsty’s Gin, sparkling Sauvignon wine with IRN-BRU and served in a complete ginger tinnie with a purple-flowered thistle rose garnish.

Next he had a Dam’s Take Me On Tour – a twist on a classic Old Fashioned with Monkey Shoulder blended malt, bitters, a sweet IRN-BRU syrup and the best garnish about – a Tom Walker-esque Polaroid picture of yourself.

Urban Decay is hosting a Game of Thrones makeup masterclass in Glasgow 

The Dam came up with the snap-happy idea after learning that the singer used to be a photo booth operator at weddings: Before making the cocktail, the bar staff will take your picture on a Polaroid camera, add a beard with a Sharpie and your very own Polaroid photo will be pegged and served on the side.

You can try both cocktails for £7  until tomorrow – follow The Dam on Facebook .
