Over one third of consumers opted for watermelon as their top summer flavour, passing previous and more traditional favourites, strawberry and raspberry.
And gin has been crowned Britain's top spirit, with 70% of Gen Zers opting for flavoured gins over more traditional alternatives.
The study comes as Paragon Brands extends its G’vine gin liqueur range with the launch of new product, June Watermelon.
Watermelon scored well, with over a third of Brits (37%) selecting it as their favourite summer fruit flavour for an alcoholic beverage.
According to the research of 2,000 Brits, drinkers are attracted to watermelon’s light and fruity taste (78%), its sweet flavour (46%), and its vibrant colour (35%).
Whether it’s flavoured or not, we are nation of gin drinkers, according to the study. Gin toppled vodka (17%) and whisky (17%) to be named the UK’s favourite spirit by one in four people (25%).
As learned by the experts, the traditional stereotype of gin drinkers is evolving in line with the spirit’s booming popularity, with older female consumers no longer leading the pack.
This year, over 2024, eight in ten Brits (82%) declare themselves as gin drinkers, but it’s the younger generation driving the surge in fruity flavours, with seven in ten (69%) Gen Zers stating fruity gin tastes better than 'ordinary' gin.
Contemporary fruity twists on traditional gin have produced a wave of popularity for the spirit in young adults, with gin makers increasingly producing innovative new fruity flavours.
Paragon Brands have launched their latest gin liqueur, Watermelon June by the G’Vine collection - an inventive addition to the flourishing flavoured gin market.
Distilled, infused and made in France, June is the perfect signature creation for G’Vine, the world’s only premium gin made from grapes and vine flowers. Which sounds very interesting.
