A Pub Lunch in a Tube
A new digital mockup presents a Pringles flavour steeped in British pub culture: Strongbow Cider & Roast Pork. The design places the iconic cider branding onto the familiar hyperbolic paraboloid stack, proposing a flavour combination that is more commonly found on a Sunday lunch menu than in the snack aisle. The tube itself adopts the green associated with Strongbow’s Original Dry cider, with an image of a glistening pork joint next to a pint.
The concept is a direct crossover between two major brands. Pringles, owned by Kellanova, is a global snacking giant. Strongbow, owned by Heineken, is one of the UK’s highest-selling ciders. A partnership of this nature would be a significant move, merging the worlds of savoury snacks and alcoholic drinks in a way rarely seen on supermarket shelves. The flavour pairing itself, however, is a classic. Pork and apple is a long-established combination, forming the basis of everything from hog roasts with apple sauce to cider-braised pork belly.
The UK Pringles Range
This concept lands far outside the brand’s current UK strategy. Pringles maintains a tight, consistent core range of flavours, most of which have been available for years. The mainstays include Original, Sour Cream & Onion, Salt & Vinegar, and Texas BBQ Sauce. Alongside these sit other classics like Paprika, Smokey Bacon, and Cheese & Onion. These flavours are the foundation of the brand’s presence in British shops.
More adventurous releases do appear, such as the spicy ‘Hot’ range which includes Blazin’ Fried Chicken Flavour, but these still operate within established snack categories. A flavour based on a specific alcoholic drink and a traditional cooked meal would represent a new direction entirely. It shifts the brand’s focus from simple, recognisable crisp flavours to a more complex, meal-based concept tied to another specific, external brand.
What the real range looks like
The current UK Pringles range is built on classics like Original, Sour Cream & Onion, Salt & Vinegar, and Texas BBQ Sauce. A flavour like Strongbow Cider & Roast Pork would be a significant outlier, moving away from established crisp profiles into the territory of a branded, pub-themed savoury snack.

Frequently asked questions
- What would Strongbow Pringles taste like?
- The concept suggests a combination of sweet, sharp apple cider and savoury roast pork flavours. This is a classic British food pairing, so the profile would likely aim for a balance of fruitiness and rich, salty meat seasoning.
- Has Pringles ever collaborated with an alcohol brand before?
- In the UK, Pringles’ core range and limited editions focus on established food and spice flavourings. A direct, co-branded product with an alcoholic beverage company like Strongbow would be a new and unusual strategy for their UK market.
- Are Strongbow Cider & Roast Pork Pringles real?
- No, this product is not real. This is a Snackfish — a fictional concept created by the online creative page UK Snack Attack. It is a digital mockup and is not available for purchase anywhere.
