York firm strikes super hero deal with the Marvel universe

If you’re a Marvel superfan, this one’s for you.

A York company has joined forces with the global film-franchise to celebrate the Avengers. 

The Potions Cauldron Group, based on Shambles, has launched a brand-new line of drinks inspired by your favourite superheroes, and you can get your hands on them from tomorrow (Tuesday).

Following the successful introduction of magic potions to Disney Cruise Lines, the superhero-inspired soft drinks are the latest addition from The Potions Cauldron, designed to excite Marvel fans of all ages. 

The line features three flavours to choose from: Iron Man Reactor Red Fruits, Captain America Super-Soldier Blue Grape, and Hulk Gamma Sour Lime.

Each drink comes with its own story and ingredients that are activated by shaking the bottle, revealing a superhero glow. 

For fans of Thor, Black Panther or Deadpool, there will be even more superhero-inspired creations to expect throughout 2025.

If that wasn’t enough, a Doctor Doom drink will be launching in anticipation of Avengers: Doomsday, in 2026.

The drinks are available individually or as part of a three-bottle gift box, the perfect treat for Marvel fans. 

Ben Fry, co-founder of the Potions Group, said: “Everyone has a favourite Avenger and now you can have a favourite MARVEL inspired soft drink as well.

“With the growth of non-alcoholic beverages in the market, we’re excited to launch these Marvel inspired drinks that we’re sure will drive incremental category value across multiple segments and drinking occasions.”

His co-founder Phil Pinder said: “Working with Disney on this has been a real pinch yourself moment. We don’t plan to stop here, so look out for more collaborations to come.”

The Marvel-inspired drinks can be found in HMV, Hamleys and select heroic stores across the UK.
