A Greater Manchester drinks firm is set for a successful Easter weekend down under after striking a deal with Aldi to sell a hot cross bun-flavoured drink in Australia.
The Bury-based Manchester Drinks Co won the contract for its Hot Cross Bun Gin Liqueur by tapping into the Australian fondness for the classic Easter treat.
The gin was first trialled by Aldi in Australia last year - and was such a hit that the retailer is now sellng it at stores across the country.
