Aldi's Petit Coconut is a unique white wine blend that's said to combine rich coconut flavor with fine cream. The product is bound to be more than just a well-timed summer launch, as it will be reaching consumers at a time when they're craving travel, escapism, a taste of the tropics—or even just a new drink, since bars and pubs remain closed.
Although the white wine blend may sound unusual, it gives people the chance to be plenty creative, as it can be combined with pineapple juice to create a piña colada wine punch or used to create sangria. The product also has the potential to be enjoyed as a simple serve with fruit and ice for a quick summer refresher.
