Irn-Bru to launch new 'sleek' 330ml cans of their 1901 full sugar recipe drink

Good news for fans of Scotland's 'other' national drink...

Irn-Bru is to roll out a 'sleek' new 330ml can in mid-February.

The new cans are filled with Irn-Bru's original 1901 recipe - the full sugar, sweetener-free 'old and improved' version of the ginger nectar.

It will be available in packs of 12 with an RSP of £1 per can, according to Scottish Local Retailer.

Up until now, the 1901 Irn-Bru was only available in 750ml glass bottles from shops and supermarkets. It became a permanent addition to shelves in Scotland back in March last year after initially launching as a limited edition in 2019.

Wholesale distributer JW Filshill, which supplies Key Stores across the country, confirmed the news via Twitter.

They tweeted: "Look out for the NEW Sleek can from Irn-Bru. coming very soon to JW Filshill."

The original 1901 recipe drink, which contains 11 grams of sugar per 100ml, is said to come from a handwritten recipe book, which was stored deep in AG Barr's archives for more than 100 years.

And as much as we love a glass bottle, it sure does look great in cans!
