VISITORS to The Oracle on Saturday were able to take advantage offer on another hot day.

The Slug & Lettuce welcomed an ice cream van which handed out free treats to shoppers.

The restaurant chain has created some cocktails inspired by the popular dessert, and to celebrate, is currently on a national tour to spread the word about its glaces.

In all, 500 ice creams were shared.

The flavours included Tongue Twister, a lemon sorbet; Pornstar Ice Creamtini, made with ice cream and passionfruit sauce; and Slugero, ice cream with mango sauce.

It wasn’t just ice cream. The first 30 in the queue received a goodie bag including a Beauty BLVD lipstick.

The Mag Yum fuses Smirnoff Red Label vodka, Disaronno Velvet cream liqueur and caramel syrup, and is finished with chocolate powder.

The bar is holding two special brunches to celebrate the cocktails. The first is on Sunday, while the second takes place on Saturday, September 28.
