Greater Anglia is adding to its local offerings at its on-board café bar by stocking Suffolk-based Niche Cocktails.
The Suffolk-based brand, which has become renowned for its range of all-natural, ready-to-drink canned cocktails, will now stock three of its popular canned cocktail mixes at the Greater Anglia café bar on board its Intercity services on the route between Norwich, Ipswich, Colchester, and London Liverpool Street.
Passengers will be able to choose from a Matcha Mojito, Brazilian Lime Margarita, and Manuka Honey Whiskey Sour. Niche Cocktails are made in Suffolk from carefully sourced, natural ingredients.
Michael Wyatt, Business Manager, Catering, Greater Anglia, said:
“We are pleased to stock Niche Cocktails on board our Intercity services. We are always looking for opportunities to support local businesses. We already stock Kettle Chips and Sponge cakes, both of which are produced in Norfolk.
“We try and source as much as possible from our local network, including Yarmouth-based Lacons, Adnams, and Vinca Wine - it’s a great opportunity to showcase some of the delights of the region as people travel with us.”
Rob Breakwell, CEO of Niche Cocktails, said:
“This is an exciting development for Niche Cocktails and presents a great opportunity to get our cocktails into the hands of those that live and work in East Anglia every day.
“Our range lends itself perfectly to those looking to enjoy their favourite cocktail whilst on the go. Conveniently canned, our cocktails are perfect for any occasion; whether someone is looking to unwind after a long day at work, or those travelling for a special event and wanting to enjoy a delicious celebratory cocktail whilst they travel.”
Most of Greater Anglia’s Intercity trains between London Liverpool Street and Norwich feature a café bar in coach C and a trolley service. Passengers are able to choose from a great selection of hot and cold drinks, freshly made sandwiches, hot savoury snacks, cakes, biscuits, and confectionary.
