(Cheaper) drinks that taste like malibu?

Hi!

Does anyone know if there are any cheaper versions of malibu? It's a great drink, but so expensive! You can always get sainsburys basics vodka/cheap spirits and wines, but I've never found anything like malibu.

Any ideas?
Thanks!

Ermmm Carribean Twist the white one tastes like Malibu to me. It's a mixed drink already though. It's about £2.

I wouldnt swear to it but I think Aldis/Lidls do something like Malibu , cant remember what its called though. Sometimes local offys also do cheaper versions of Malibu too.

Yeah Caribbean Twist, the Pina Colada version's like a fruitier Malibu. It's an alcopop though, so probably only 5%.

Yeah, they definately do. I have bought it before..its nice =)

I can't remember the name but it tastes exactly the same as Malibu but is about 6 or 7 quid. OP, it shold be next to the normal malibu in Tesco.

Iceland do a cheap version of malibu, and peach schnapps. I think both are usually £4-5, sometimes they do 3 bottles for £10 :biggrin:

I always stock up on peach schnapps there.

Aldi's version of Malibu is called Cocobay, if I remember rightly

This reminds me of the time when we went to Poland, and my friend really wanted Malibu. We don't speak Polish and we wandered off from our Polish friend, so we pointed at something with a coconut tree on it, and she put it in coke, and it was like creamy.

And then we bought just plain rum, and then no-one liked it, so we played that game wher you put coke and beer and wine and stuff into a cup and whoever loses the game has to drink it, and I lost and I threw up.

And then we bought cherry brandy and real fake-Malibu and she loved it so much I had to throw away the rest of my cherry brandy and put it in the bottle (mine was 150ml or something) and carry it through cos I was 18 and she was 17.

Good times.

The moral is...don't experiment with Malibu.
