Vimto is popular among Muslims, as a way to break fast during the holy month.
There’s been a spike in sales in the Middle East, especially in Saudia Arabia, where the mixture is twice as concentrated.
Suleman Khonat is a newsagent in Blackburn and a practicing Muslim, he said “when you break fast you need a drink which is nourishing, which helps energise you very quickly, I think vimto does gown well”.
He said sales of the drink during Ramadan are “about average, sales are fairly good anyway”.
