Merseyside drink which inspires weddings and is loved across the world

A drink loved my Scousers is also very popular around the world.

Vimto was originally founded in Manchester but is now based in Merseyside - on the edge of Newton-le-Willows. The fruity soft drink is a Northern staple.

It also inspired a purple-themed wedding back in 2014, which included toasting with Vimto instead of champagne and guests asked to wear purple like the colour of the drink, as well as being featured on ITV reality show Love Island back in 2018.
