Created in1962, After Eight is made with 100% natural peppermint oil and is free from artificial colours, flavours and preservatives, and has become a major confectionery phenomenon.

Debbie Bowen, Senior Brand Manager for After Eight said: “Last year’s limited edition Gin & Tonic After Eight was a huge hit with consumers, and we think our newest invention will prove even more popular.
“After Eight Mojito & Mint is a grown-up and sophisticated take on our classic fondant, with a refreshing and zesty flavour that is sure to delight fans of the brand both old and new. Whether you enjoy it alongside an after dinner coffee or as a treat at any time of the day, we think our newest mint is a delicious tribute to one of the nation’s favourite cocktails!”
