As temperatures warm up, many of us are swapping our hot cups of coffee for iced delights. Coffee giants are selling a range of matcha flavours and iced lattes with delicious, sweet flavours. Pret A Manger has created a unique twist on the classic iced latte - and launched a purple latte and a blue one.

Inspired by wellness flavours and social media trends, the new lattes are as delicious as they are Instagrammable - and they are available now for a limited time across UK shops. You can now order the Ube Brûlée and Spirulina Macaron lattes, both priced at £4.70.

The new Ube Brûlée Iced Latte features the subtly sweet, nutty flavour of purple yam blended with caramel syrup combined with Pret's signature organic espresso served with milk and over ice.

Meanwhile, the new Spirulina Macaron Iced Latte combines blue spirulina with sweet macaron syrup over Pret's organic espresso, milk and ice, giving a bold new twist in a striking blue hue.

This is not the first Spirulina product to hit Pret's shelves. Following customer interest in Pret's Blueberry Balance Bowl which first launched in January, the new Spirulina Iced Latte builds on the success of that product but now with a refreshing twist.

Briony Raven, Chief Customer & Product Offer at Pret A Manger said: "Iced coffee continues to boom in the UK, and at Pret we've been investing to make sure our customers can enjoy even more choice — especially when the sun's out.

"We've invested heavily in making sure more than 90% of our shops have ice machines to give customers the opportunity to enjoy more Barista-made iced drinks and we're proud to launch Ube and Spirulina iced lattes, bringing bold new flavours and colours to our menu. These new drinks are a fun, fresh twist for customers this summer and sit alongside favourites like our Iced Matcha Latte and Iced Americano."

Viral food reviewer Emily Jade, recently rushed out to try the new lattes. The content creator, who boasts over 459,000 followers on , first tucked into the Ube Brûlée Iced Latte.

Emily said: "It's literally purple, it looks so cool...oh my god that's good. I love the colour but honestly I'm not really getting the Ube flavour I'm just getting a sweet kind of flavour. I definitely get the crème brulee vibe."

Moving onto the Spirulina Macaron latte, Emily said: "I think the colours are so cool. It tastes really good, but it does just taste really strong of coffee like I'm not getting any other flavour with this. It's good but I definitely prefer the other one."

Meanwhile vegan food viewer Mairead, from Manchester, also rushed out to try the treats - and approves of the the Spirulina Macaron. She said: "It's not super intense...it's just got a nice, subtle macaron flavour to it." She also noted she could taste hints of vanilla and coconut.
