Edinburgh lads travel 220 miles to get their hands on Prime drink

A pair of Edinburgh lads were seen travelling over 200 miles to get their hands on the Prime hydration drink.

Known to be the latest craze to sweep the nation, the hydration drink made by YouTubers KSI and Logan Paul has seen shoppers wait in long queues and visit different stores to get a chance to try it.

Seen in a TikTok video posted by Wakey Wines in Wakefield, Leeds, the young men chatted to the owner about their trip south of the border, and what they had come to purchase.

Sharing a series of clips with their customers, the store is known for stocking the in demand drink, as well as different sweets and confectionary that have gone viral online.

Asking the duo where they had travelled from, the pair confirmed they were from Edinburgh, and when asked what they had come for, held up the Prime drink as well as a bag of sweets.

With the store a distance of 224 miles from Edinburgh, one user commented: "This is mental."

The drink craze has also been spotted in the Scottish capital, with a site being made called 'Prime Finder Scotland' so that shoppers can locate the items.

On December 29, huge queues were filmed in the Edinburgh Asda at Chesser, as customers lined up around the aisles to get a few bottles in their trolleys.
