You can now get lemon and watermelon gin

The next big thing in the summer drinks industry is here- and this summer we are blessed with two options.

Asda stores will be stocking two new gin flavours made by Verano (which means summer in Spanish) for 2019 and bottles will soon be appearing in stores.

Lemon and watermelon flavour gin will arrive in June and hopefully in time for some sunny summer days.

Inspired by Spanish fruits, they will set you back £23 for a 70cl bottle.

While the watermelon flavour has a millennial pink hue, the lemon one is completely transparent, meaning that not only do they taste good, but they could also make for a great Instagram .

The Verano gin is set to go on sale in Asda stores and  on their website  from 7th June.

Can't wait that long? There is still one way you can get your hands on them before that - and it involves going to the pub.

As the drinks are currently being sold in 800 Stonegate Bars across the country, which includes Slug & Lettuce and Walkabout.

If you don't want to splash out £23, or are desperate for a bottle to drink at home, we've spotted some fairly similar bottles on the high street.

For example, Tesco are currently selling  Sipsmith's Lemon Drizzle Gin for £20  if you're after that summer citrus flavour, and while watermelon gin is rarer,  Master of Malt  do a cucamelon flavour bottle  for £21.95.
