Fruit Shoot recall over choking fears

-

A popular children’s drink has been recalled amid fears that the “sports style” bottle cap could become detached, posing a choking hazard to youngsters.

Britvic is recalling selected Robinson’s Fruit Shoot Apple and Blackcurra­nt bottles as a “precaution­ary measure” because of a small number of reports that the spout in the sports bottle cap may become detached unexpected­ly, which may present a safety risk.

The product was sold as multipacks of 24 bottles in Tesco and Costco, and as single bottles in Mcdonald’s, between 22 and 28 June, with a best before end date of March 2020.

Britvic said: “As a precaution this product should be disposed of safely. No other Fruit Shoot product is affected.

“Any customers who recently purchased this product will be able to apply for a full refund.”
