Aldi has launched a new variety of Ballycastle to shelves - the Milk Chocolate & Peanut Butter Cream Liqueur (£7.49, 70cl) will land from June 29 with a flavour like Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.
The latest addition follows the success of Aldi’s Ballycastle Hazelnut Chocolate Cream Liqueur (£7.49, 70cl), which was noted as an alcoholic twist on the much-loved spread, Nutella.
The supermarket’s Ballycastle range has scooped a series of awards. The Specially Selected Irish Cream (£7.99, 70cl) landed a ‘Great Value’ accolade in the 2022 prestigious Which? ‘Irish Cream Liqueur’ taste test, whilst the Ballycastle White Chocolate Cream (£7.49, 70cl) and the Ballycastle Chocolate, Caramel and Hazelnut Cream (£7.49, 70cl) BOTH won medals at this year’s International Wine and Spirits Competition (IWSC).
Aldi has also revealed a milkshake recipe using the new drink.
