Aldi Australia is launching a range of new flavoured gins and gin liqueurs, as well as some returning favourites, for the latter half of the year.

The Infusionist Gin range aims to reimagine quintessential Australian flavours to spruce up consumers’ cocktail hours. The new range features a Mango and Cream Gin Liqueur and a Passionfruit Gin, and returns with the Citrus Craft Gin and Vanilla Slice Liqueur, which won Double Gold and Platinum respectively at the 2024 Spirits International Prestige (SIP) awards.

The range is produced in Australia and is developed in collaboration with Aldi's business partners.

Aldi Australia spirits buying director, Paul Handley, said that the company is thrilled to announce the return of the award-winning Infusionist range of gins and gin liqueurs.

“It proved to be a hit with our customers previously, so we know they will be excited to hear we are expanding the much-loved collection with two tasty new flavours: the Infusionist Mango and Cream Gin Liqueur and the Infusionist Passionfruit Gin,” said Handley.

“All four products from the collection are delicious, however my personal favourite is the Mango and Cream Gin Liqueur, as it reminds me of a warm summer’s day by the beach enjoying some ice cream!”

“These delightful gins and gin liqueurs are available for a limited time only, so dash to your nearest Aldi store and grab a bottle from just $34.99 to enjoy with your loved ones,” he said.

The Infusionist Mango and Cream Gin Liqueur is available from 7 August for RRP $34.99, and the Passionfruit Gin will be available from 27 November for RRP $49.99 – exclusively at Aldi Australia.

The Infusionist Citrus Craft Gin will be returning to shelves on 21 August for RRP $49.99, and the Vanilla Slice Gin Liqueur for $34.99, available from 2 October.

Australia's environment ministers have declared packaging reform urgent and named soft plastics as an initial priority, but offered no firm timetable or regulatory commitments. SPSA has welcomed the soft plastics focus, while Boomerang Alliance and WMRR have raised concerns about the lack of concrete action.

Economic analysis commissioned by SPSA estimates national recycling reforms could deliver up to $278m in net productivity gains and stimulate up to $2.6b in capital investment each year.

A cross-sector open letter is urging national leaders to agree on a pathway for regulated producer responsibility schemes at the September Environment Ministers Meeting.
