    Hey folks, unusual request here!

    Last summer, Red Bull held one of their regular seaside events in Dun Laoghaire (either Cliff Diving or a Flugtag, they have them here frequently so I get them confused!) and part of the promotional handout involved copious free cans of a new (at that time) flavour - "Coconut Berry Edition". I've attached a photo of the can below.

    I stocked up at that event and this weekend for the first time used it as a mixer, and I can safely say that if I can get my hands on more of it I won't be switching back to the regular Red Bull any time soon :D The problem is, I've tried a few shops and there's no sign of it. Tesco came closest, having the "orange edition" alongside the regular flavour, but no coconut - while SuperValu does have it listed as a page on their website, but out of stock and no indication of either how long it's been since they decided to stock it, or how long it might be until they re-stock. I discovered this through a Google Search, but it didn't come up in a search of the site itself which makes me feel that it's been removed altogether as a product.

    https://shop.supervalu.ie/shopping/drinks-sports-energy-red-bull-coconut-berry-sugar-free-edition-250-millilitre-/p-1615934002

    Anyone come across this recently and know where, if anywhere, I'd be able to pick it up?

    I've seen it in a centra and a daybreak near me (galway) so maybe bigger stores no longer stock it..

    Found it in Spar of Sandycove/Glasthule of all places. Guess ye're right, strangely the bigger shops don't have it but the convenience store sized places do. Pity they sell it at such a premium but beggars and choosers etc!

    Hey, does anyone know if they still sell this flavour anywhere in Ireland?

    Seem to have it everywhere in UK and Europe but can't find it anywhere here.
