Tongues will no doubt be wagging at the new Tango Editions: Strawberry Smash drink.

Combining sweet strawberry with tropical pineapple, the drink can transport you to feel like you are on an exotic beach.

The drink is the latest in a long line up of Tango Editions, with previous flavours including Berry Peachy and Paradise Punch.

It also joins the range of traditional flavours alongside Tango Orange, Tango Apple Sugar Free, Tango Mango Sugar Free and Tango Cherry Sugar Free.

The exciting new drink has been available across UK supermarkets and stores since early February.

“Deliciously” sugar-free, Tango says the drink “does not compromise on taste”.

It is available in a range of sizes, including: 330ml cans, 500ml and two litre bottles, and even multi-packs of eight and 24 cans.

Tango said: “Set to tantalise tastebuds with an irresistible explosion of flavour, Tango Strawberry Smash combines sweet strawberry and tropical pineapple flavour for an instant, and outrageously bold hit of fruity tang.”

Victoria Burridge, Tango Brand Manager, Carlsberg Britvic added: “We know our Tango fans crave invigorating new flavours that stray away from the mundane, and Strawberry Smash does just that.

“Combining strawberry and pineapple flavour for a major hit of fruity tang, be prepared to experience outrageously bold flavour when drinking.” 

The drink has rolled out to major supermarkets across the UK, including Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury’s, Morrisons, and many convenience stores.

Tango has said the drink will only be available for 12 months and has also listed its suggested retailing price.

You can expect the 330ml single cans of the exotic drink to sell for around 85p, while the 500ml bottles will set you back around £2.15.

For the larger two litre bottles, you can expect to pay £3.35, while for the eight and 24-can multi packs, you should expect to pay £5.29 and £13.19 respectively.

Tango has brought out a multitude of flavours this month, including a new mango flavoured drink.

Succeeding Tango’s popular Paradise Punch flavour, this latest rotation is set to meet the demand for Mango flavoured drinks, giving shoppers more sugar-free options without compromising on taste.

Available from 1 February for 12 months, the fruit-flavoured fizzy drink is available to enjoy in formats to be consumed at home or on the go.

The flavour will be available in a variety of formats – 330ml cans, 500ml bottles, 2-litre bottles, 8-can multi packs and 24-can multi-packs.

Shoppers have already taken to Facebook after spotting the 2-litre bottles in Asda this weekend.

One Tango fan said: “Mango Tango? Love the rhyme!”

Another said: “This is a bit of me.”

“It’s gorgeous,” said a third shopper.

This also comes as Tango announced it was releasing bottled versions of its popular Raspberry Blast and Cherry Blast slushies.

Fans of the new flavours were ecstatic and wanted to try the new drinks.
