With pubs and bars closed across the UK, many will have to raise a glass to Dad over video chat this Father’s Day.

But if you are wondering what drinks our Dad’s will be knocking back, the new Brand-a-Lust report by money.co.uk might be able to help:

The top tipple was Pimm’s with 1,700% more searches as the summer sunshine reached UK shores, with the majority of searches coming from those living in Bristol.

  1. Pimm’s +1,700% lockdown search increase* 
  2. WKD +422%
  3. Bollinger +355%
  4. Blossom Hill +245%
  5. Johnnie Walker +182%

*Google Trends data between 1st April and 31st May

The report also revealed that retro brands appear to have made a comeback, with Babycham, Hooch and WKD being among the most searched lockdown drinks, experiencing three times as many searches (217%) than before the shutdown.

That’s a double whammy for Dads across the UK who not only get spoilt by their children but can also raise a retro drink to relive their youth.
