Scotland's other national drink, Irn-Bru, is having a go at making Burns Night even better by launching its first-ever restaurant.
Teaming up with UberEats, Burns By BRU will be delivering Burns Suppers suppers to homes across Edinburgh and Glasgow from Friday, January 21 to Tuesday, January 25.
Giving back to Scots who might be going without this Burns Night, the brand will donate the full cost of every meal (£5) to foodbanks across Glasgow and Edinburgh.
The launch comes following a recent survey by ScotPulse into how Scots celebrate Burns Night, which has revealed that while one in two (55%) Scot’s associate Burns Night with a celebration of being Scottish, almost half (49%) of younger millennials don’t celebrate the National Bard at all.
The generations are divided when it comes to the supper itself, with 50% of Scots placing the importance of Burns Night on haggis, neeps and tatties, but almost a fifth (17%) of people under the age of 34 don’t actually know how to make a Burns Supper.
Incredibly, 15% would be more excited about Burns Night if there was a more modern version of the meal.
As the drink of choice for 1 in 3 young Scots on Burns Night (39%), IRN-BRU has launched ‘Burns By BRU’ to keep the celebrations alive. IRN-BRU is hoping that by bringing the iconic supper straight to people’s doors, younger generations across Scotland will be "raising a can" to the National Bard this year.
On the menu is haggis nuggets with a spiced Irn-Bru chutney, fried neeps and tatties and a Mac ‘n’ Cheese Pie with a BRU glazed bacon crumble. All washed down with a can of Irn-Bru and followed by a whisky chocolate mousse.
And for those also celebrating Veganuary, a vegan option is also available.
