Watch out Bloody Mary, there's a new tomato-based cocktail on the block.

Papa Johns' has created a limited edition cocktail made from their very own tomato sauce.

Having tried the drink, we'd say this is perfect for those of you who want something a little bit sweeter and less spicy than a traditional Bloody Mary.

The drink is designed to pair perfectly with your favourite slice of pizza, and comes after new research found almost two-thirds of cocktail lovers are turning to tangy and savoury alternatives.

60% of those asked said they were trying flavours such as tomatoes (34%), and herby hints like basil and thyme (29%) instead of traditionally sweet cocktails.

And whilst you may think a pizza maker developing cocktails is a bit unusual, it turns out most Brits actually think pizza is the perfect pairing for a cocktail.

Seven in 10 young Brits rate pizza as their go-to, beating tacos, sushi and classic Indian and Chinese takeaways. 

Meanwhile, almost a third (29%) agreed they prefer a savoury cocktail and always order them.

You'll need to be quick to get your hands on a can of Tomatini though, by heading to www.PapaJohnsTomatini.com from the 15th July to submit your details - because once they’re gone, they’re gone!

The Tomatini should be served chilled and shaken well before serving. All alcohol should be consumed responsibly.
